Hey, NOW LOOK at who is engaging in whataboutism!!

How about we have one set of standards that we apply to both Obama and to Trump? How about we honestly admit when either one of them screwed up, and we honestly admit when either does something that helps the country? Too much to ask?

I'll start...Obama did a good job helping the economy recover, he did a poor job at easing racial tensions and respecting religious freedoms when he didn't like the situation (he tried forcing Little Sisters of the Poor to provide recreational contraception as part of healthcare, they had to go to the SCOTUS to prevail).

Trump is also helping the economy, but does an awful job at not offending people with his mannerisms and his tweets and his vindictiveness.

Both of them added large amounts to the debt.

Spence, WDMSO, Pete - you should try it. I can compliment Obama and I can criticize Trump, and neither one causes my head to explode. It's called honesty. You might like it if you give it a try. You seem terrified, absolutely terrified, of even attempting it.
