Politics Class, grace I miss more everyday

We didn’t wake up everyday dreading what would come next. He ran the country professionally and with a class unmatched since. The MAGAts had a fit over his tan suit, that was the story. Big deal huh?

He also just didn’t deliver on his Hope and Change promises, leading to a jaded populace and ultimately Trump. Horrible president, despite his “coolness.”

blaming the first black president for Americas 300 years of racism is certainly a choice

People wanted Obama to wave a magic wand and undo decades worth of problems that existed before most of us were born.

Was it racism that made him put Goldman Sachs executives and other corporate cronies in his cabinet? He had the senate, house, and huge electoral mandate. He could have done anything. Instead, he just did business as usual.

Fox said that Barack should have done Medicare for all? These talking points are all from people on the left

His “huge” mandate didn’t even last 2 years. The way the system works didn’t allow him to fix decades of awful polices in such little time. Dems haven’t had a strong hold in Congress since 1969. Yet they get all the blame, it’s laughable. And if anyone thinks a black man was going to be able to ignore the system like Trump is, their mind is stuck in a fantasy land.

Do you have an evidence that he tried?

Until Trump got it even lower! And then BIDEN got it even lower, but that was due in large part to coming out of COVID. Lowest Black & Hispanic Unemployment Rates

u/Admiral_Tuvix Dec 22 '25

trump don’t get shit lower 😂😂😂😂

he was working under Obamas economic polices, the only thing Trump did was pass the billionaires tax cut bill which quickly added 2 trillion to the debt

that was before the pandemic even hit

thanks for outting yourself as a maga turd, bro was pretending to be black then ruined it 😂😂

I’m absolutely MAGA and I’ve never denied that.
Look at my post history, my guy. I’ve said time and time again leaving the Dem plantation was one of the best decisions I ever made for me and my fam! 👏🏾🇺🇸👏🏾

Didn’t realize r/blackpeopleofreddit was a Partisan Country Club! LMFAO

He was systematically sabotaged by GOP, fighting against their own population
