No. I voted for Obama because he wanted to give this country HOPE. And he sounded believeable unlike Trump. He wanted to get rid of PACs and pork spending. He seems to be a straight shooter and honest politician even out of the office.
He said he was going to repair the economy, shut down Guantanamo and end the wars that Bush and Cheney started. He did nothing of the kind, and I knew he wouldn't because I understood how politics work in Chicago. He was -- and is -- a neoliberal that was perfectly happy to join the neoconservative cause. He did nothing to undo what Bush and Cheney did. Instead, he advanced what they had set in motion. And he did nothing to help poor blacks. Absolutely nothing.
Trump also did absolutely nothing except failing to build a wall, inciting the storming of a Capitol in an attempt to overthrow a fair election, sell a bunch of shitty overpriced sneakers, watches and lowering taxes. The good economy? Trump inherited that from Obama.
