It IS all President Obama's fault!!!!! No, really.

Poor Donald Trump. He had to follow President Obama as President. And the comparisons are striking.

Obama:
1) married to the same woman for many years

Trump:
married 3 times, so far, numerous extramarital affairs

Obama:

2) A very intelligent Constitutional lawyer
Trump: was given millions by his father

Obama:
3) Pays his bills
Trump: declared bankruptcy 6 times, so far

Obama:
4) Has 2 lovely children
Trump: Has spawned numerous greedy sociopaths

Obama:
5) never a hint of marital scandal
Trump: an admitted sexual predator and possible pedophile

Obama:
6) No ties to Russia
Trump: Putin owns him.

Obama:
7) endured 8 years of racist abuse from the GOP
Trump: might as well be a KKK member

Obama:
8) always kept cool under pressure
Trump: a juvenile, thin skinned, image obsessed time bomb

Obama:
9) a full head of hair
Trump: 30 pounds of shellac holding down 50 hairs


I could go on, but it is clear that if Barack Obama had been as dysfunctional as, say, the entire Palin family, Trump would not look so bad by comparison.

So it is all Obama's fault.


If I have missed anything please feel free to add.

From slumcamper:
Obama:
10) inspired a majority of Americans with HOPE
Trump:
10) depressed the majority of Americans with DESPAIR

I'd add 'gifted diplomacy skills' vs 'might as well hang his dick out at visiting foreign dignitaries'.

hardly compares to an extramarital affair, well maybe it does but that would be the only way he'd score is if he paid for it. All his so called other half's were paid, were they not?

I can't imagine an actual woman being attracted to him enough to have sex with him with out a money changing hands somehow,

Mar 2017

Obama: Cut business ties upon taking the oath of office.
Trump: Still has business ties, profits off his business ties and gets a weekly Air Force One ride to his exclusive Florida country club.

Number 12;

Obama: No contact with Russian government prior to election.
Trump: FBI investigating possibility of illegal Russian gambling ring running 3 floors under Trump during 2016 election.

Number 13:

Obama: Released tax returns every year he campaigned and while he was in office.
Trump: Released a tax return from 2005, but still has yet to release his from last year.

As sheshe mentioned, the best ending would be impeachment, indictment, and imprisonment.

Every single one of them from top to bottom, the whole party allowed treason to happen, and they're proud of it! They all need to be prosecuted!
