When did the president become so tied to social justice?

Or really just social issues?

I know this board is heavily biased but does this really go back to the impeachment of Clinton when Republicans seized hold of the Christian and moral majority?

Or is this just an Obama thing?

The protests are not happening because of Trump's tax plan or foreign policy plan. They're happening because these people believe that the president is a crucial component of social justice issues and the media has fed them the lie that Trump cares most about destroying particular people based on social and racial identities.

Just seems absurd to me.
