Someday, we'll look back and think being nice to each other wasn't such a bad idea.

Oh come on - Obama didn't even vaguely try to take Trump's place

I mean - he didn't even mention the ballroom once.

How DARE you not worship our golden calf? When Obama lands, you have someone hold up a painting of Trump, with a golden frame, and the painting has to be involved in thw conversation, and also you gotta give painting Trump a kiss on the cheek every once in a while.

Rage is their favorite emotion, it’s an actual addiction. Anybody with family who has fallen victim to qanon or hangs on every word from people like alex Jones or rush Limbaugh(rest in piss) can confirm this.

This is like reporting that fire is hot and water is wet

Nothing against OP, but why even report on such irrelevance as the "MAGA sphere"?

Biden had Dark Brandon; Obama's always just been Obama. Is he too powerful? Is Barack Hussein his stand?

These are the things I wonder

I kinda find it interesting that Obama is seen as a positive figure when he signed off on so many drone strikes during his term.

There's an irony there that I have a hard time grappling with. I still think he was a better president than what America has now, but it's a weird thing to think about
