Significantly better.

Like the democrats of today, plenty of republicans were pissed beyond a level they previously thought they could reach. But the difference is that those pissed off people funneled their anger into reforming their own political party and paving the way to get their people back in charge. The majority of Dems seem satisfied to simply stew in their anger and evoke chaos.

I would say that was a 50-50 proposal. I hated his politics and thought his demeanor was petulant and narcissistic. But a lot of people just hated the man.

Be honest, do you think

You should have stopped your question there.

Most Americans don't think.

They are not taught to do critical thinking anymore and haven't been for 30 or 40 years.

Worse, better, or the same when Obama was elected compared to how Dems are acting now with Trump?



Oh much better. Which is even more impressive given that Obama actually was doing things that were criminal earl on in his administration like running guns down to Mexico.

The Republicans were far worse. Throw in the fact that the economy was in a free fall their obstructionism was downright treasonous.

Could have had a ton more high speed rail by now, plus a lot of other infrastructure upgrades. But Repubs decided it was more important to oppose everything Obama proposed.

While some of that stuff is awful, I'm failing to see the violence, destroyed property, looting, and overall destruction caused by the current crop of thugs?

You may not agree with those signs, but they're legal; setting fire to another man's business is not.

I have never even seen those anti Obama signs before this thread. But the signs are free speech. A great deal less than the riots and violence coming from the left at present. Great

Or maybe they thought spending $100B so 50 people could ride a train wasn't the best investment of taxpayer money.

They really don't see the difference. Sad really. In their minds those signs equal riots and deaths and actual physical harm.
