The conversation inevitably goes something like this:
TV News Host: But don’t you think that America is at risk when President Trump divulges top-secret classified info to the Russians?
Trump Surrogate: Did it bother you when Obama did....blah...blah...blah...?
This is the point where I throw my shoe at the TV and usually scream “What the fuck does it matter what Obama did or didn’t do, Jeffrey Lord!? (or Paris Dennard, Kayleigh McEnany, Jason Miller, etc). Trump is the fucking president now!”
Let me be very clear, Trumpsters: it...doesn’t...fucking...matter. Obama’s gone. He’s not the president anymore. The guy you voted for is.
You insufferable, horribly disingenuous Stepford Wife-like defenders of
the Vag-Grabber-in-Chief really need to learn how to defend his
abhorrent behavior without citing something similar you think Obama did.
Even if Obama is guilty of everything you claim (which, of course, he
isn’t), it still doesn’t matter. If Trump puts America’s security at
risk by taunting Kim Jong Un, but Obama once slaughtered a litter of
puppies with his bare hands, it... still... doesn’t... fucking... matter.
Didn’t
they all vote for Trump because they hated Obama? Thought he was a
horrible president that did everything wrong? Didn’t they elect Trump
because he was different? The exact opposite of this ‘weak, crooked, terrorist-appeasing Kenyan anti-colonialist non-citizen’?
A brilliant, successful bizman outsider who was going to bring a fresh
new approach to governing amid the existing “swamp” that was paralyzing
Washington? So what’s the first thing they do when their guy’s caught
slithering around the bottom of the swamp with his tiny hands in the
vag-jar? They point to something Obama did.
When they do that they’re essentially saying, “Yeah, we know our guy is a crooked dumbass, but so was Obama.” What
happened to Trump being different? Better? A swamp drainer? Instead,
they justify and excuse his myriad gaffes and offenses because the dude
they hate was “just as bad.” Am I missing something?
And
they do this while Trump’s also reneging on every campaign promise and
lying to them 24/7...AND giving away secrets to Russia...AND
offending/endangering our allies...AND obstructing justice...AND taking
away their healthcare...AND...AND...AND. Ignorance is in fact bliss.
Donald
J. Trump is president. Not Obama. The colossal shitstorm that’s blown
through the White House since January 20 is all on him. All due to his
unprecedented, cringe-worthy words, deeds and unforced errors. Nothing
Obama did, said, thought, wished, wrote, mimed, improv’d, or sang
matters. Defend Trump if you must, but do so without mentioning Obama’s
(or Hillary Clinton’s) name. Try it. I know it’s incredibly difficult. I
bet ya can’t...
