Because I'm racist I feel like I should comment but I actually loved Obama.
Theres no way he's involved in the trump/clinton pedo rings, nor is he gay, because he's a Muslim.

On the flip side, Clinton's campaign outspent Trump's by a 2:1 margin and had an unprecedented degree of unified support from business, intellectual, media, cultural and entertainment elites, all throwing their weight behind her.
And Trump's campaign was a chaotic trainwreck from start to finish.

Btw: Voting districts had nothing to do with the outcome of the presidential race.

Poor turnout decided last election.

It was giant douche vs turd sandwich nobody wanted to f******* vote.

The candidate choice just keeps getting worse.

basically, we ate a turd sandwitch, then we were given a glass of piss to wash it down, so the turd sandwitch is our fault because we drank piss?

Obama expanded the power and scope of EOs, got very little done legislatively, and did little to calm racial tensions surrounding a great number of issues.

he was neither centrist nor even remotely as ineffectual as Trump, but he got basically nothing done.

His list of accomplishments rest on:

1. Obamacare, which in hindsight was terrible done and heavily weighted to insurance companies
2. on-par economic recover, neither meteoric nor sluggish
3. Gay Marriage (he had nothing to do with it)
4. ineffectual "armor piercing" ammo ban

he didn't get any movement on CJ reform besides a few clemencies which is standard even for GOP potuses. he didnt do anything to curb the war on drugs. he didnt reform taxes or entitlements through the legislature. He didnt get any mental health reform. He oversaw the continued bailouts for the banks who caused the housing crisis and economic depression.

basically he was a change candidate that scared the GOP voters into killing his mandate, so he spent 6/8 years with no senate to approve anything. Just like Trump will be. they're gridlock POTUSes who promised the moon but delivered a 25 cent moonpie.

Thats what happens to the candidates when you let women and property tenants vote.

You keep telling yourself that to make yourself feel better. I think you're afraid that the average American voter is slowly waking up and learning that the Democratic party has nothing to offer them and only seeks to take from them, while standing on a high moral mound.

The Republican party isn't much better. But at least they're in a better position to do what's best for this nation.

this is as generic as your "at least Trump is pro America" posts

Eh, you're probably right, it's wishful thinking. The Democrats are so far gone that I'd like to think the GOP could restore themselves to Lincoln's party. But even I know I'm bullshitting myself. Americans have become complacent.
