    This TV program was when Obama was president. Notice his illegal aliens kept in detention cages See the Children? Watch some that became the TRump enemy. (reporters hate Trump) Create excuses for Obama.

    A lot of agreement is there that Obama was the worst president.

    Trump has worked hard to secure American Obama bragged how he kicked out illegals yet he held women with children in cages.This is clear evidence.

    I also note the way Matt Dowd makes excuses for Obama./

    Now he attacks Trump over the same thing he excused Obama for.

    It does not take a round table to see obama was the worst president ever.

    Johnson was the worst. He expanded "big brother" and killed a lot of men in Vietnam.

    Hyper-partisan crackpot attempts at diversion fail. The American people registered about 60% approval of Obama's presidency upon completion of the two terms to which he had been popularly elected by them. Certainly, not the GOAT, but a decisively decent showing.

    Meanwhile, Trump bum kissers who attempt to shift attention from their messiah can take solace in the scholarly assessment that their messiah is not yet ranked as the WOAT.

    No need for a round table.

    Trump is the WORST president so far...and I cannot imagine the people of America ever electing someone worse.

    Just imagine if Obama got the same media coverage that Trump gets? He would probably have never made it out of the teens. Then again, any reporter that said anything negative would have immediately been labeled as racists.

    Robert, even YOU don't think Obama was the worst President. There has been a President who led us into a civil war where over 600,000 Americans died fighting each other. There has been a President who led the US into The Great Depression. If Andrew Jackson was still around, he would be tried and convicted of Crimes Against Humanity for his role in decimating the American Indian.

    Not arguing Obama was a great President, he was average at best. But he was a long way from the worst.

    If the media had reported that Obama - or any prior POTUS - boasted that his celebrity licensed him to grab women by the p*ssy, had a "fixer" to pay off bimbos with whom he rutted behind the backs of trophy wives, lied in assuring the American people that he would comply with the 40-year tradition of presidential candidates releasing their tax returns, made the fake claim that millions of bogus people had all voted against him, had spewed the crackpot notion that anthropogenic claim is a Chinese hoax, had savaged America's free press to wee wee up his goons, and had spouted ludicrous nonsense about "prayer rugs!" and "duct-taped women everywhere!", and a plethora of other such absurdities, such derangement would have, indeed, invited accurate coverage as well.

    Instead he just ran guns to the cartels, got us involved in more wars, covered up Russian election tampering, lied to the American public about Benghazi, wire tapped a presidential candidate, wiretapped journalists, weaponized the IRS, and I'm sure I'm missing a few other things in there.

    The Obama policies with those young children is simply deplorable. I'm glad to see the current President try to right the ship.

    You are aware of the instances in which the popular 44th President of the United States deserved criticism during his two terms thanks to the media that reported it, just as that media reports the foibles of his successor.

    There are whiny pissants who snivel because the media reports on Trump's deficiencies, but they should recall that Trump, a reality-tv performer, depended heavily upon free coverage during his campaign for the Republican nomination - to the consternation of his less showy opponents.

    Consider the free ride the tv celebrity was given by America's media:

    To me it is that it is just never ending. Turn on any news channel and see if you can go an hour without some one mentioning Trump. It is an obsession and worse great for ratings. I don't know what they will talk about if Trump loses in 2020 after the second week of a new President.

    He was destructive but not incompetent like Carter, my vote for worst president since the great war. Gerald Ford is a close second.

    I voted for Carter in 1976 but voted for Reagan to take him out. Carter did one good thing. He went wild deregulating. I wonder if that caused his defeat by other then fellow Democrats?

    I never held the hostage thing against him. Perhaps I should have but I cut him some slack realizing it was a very difficult mission to free them and have them kept alive.

    It is relentless.

    Trump attracts media attention like a pile of steaming Trumpery attracts flies. That had been the case for as long as the narcissistic stable genius has been a performer. Such notoriety is a two-edged scimitar, and Trump will persist in basking under the klieg lights long after he has absconded from public office.

    The graph you included has nothing to do with my comments.

    While Obama was hugely popular with Democrats, as you say he did deserve criticism. I do not recall the media grumbling he was not competent.
    That was my pet peeve about the man.

    I spent many years in sales. I saw him like I see poor Real Estate agents.

    I trained agents and got all over them when they pulled a con on buyers. I fired a few over that.

    I recall the agent I hired who was born in South America. She pulled some of the worst tricks on sellers and buyers I ever saw.I saw Obama and she came to my mind.

    Laila another woman agent came to America from Norway. She could cruise right down the path of deception. I fired her. She ended up losing her license in CA to sell real estate.

    If you pinned down Obama, he commenced his dodging the issue act instantly.

    I used to claim he is a natural narcissist. I have not changed my mind.

    You are smitten by the same press that only gets a 20 percent rating by the public for truth.

    You need to consider who you believe.

    WHEN Trump Loses, they will talk about how Trump refused to accept defeat, cried fraud, tried to start WW3, and had to be dragged kicking and screaming by the New President's Secret Service.

    Trump will be good for a lot of material after he loses in 2020.

    In other words Obama could not ever get the attention of the media he desperately sought.

    You need to check in with FOX. They'll help you with the "few other things." This is old BS informed folks don't believe anymore. I bet you sound great at the Trump rallies, though.

    You don't believe Benghazi happened? You dont believe Fox News and AP reporters were wire tapped? What about the weaponizing of the IRS, was that a figment of my imagination also?

    The three items you mention were
    a) a lot more complicated than you believe
    b) were not connected to Obama
    c) wire taps are debatable

    Let me give you one example which you folks seem wedded to - Banghazi.
    Immediately before Benghazi happened an unusually amount of especially ugly stuff was published about the prophet Muhammed. A lot of it from Texas; it caused a huge uproar in the Muslim community. Demonstrations and some street violence. Then Benghazi erupted. The Obama administration's take was that it was a spontaneous Muslim attack because of the published stuff. It took several days to figure out what really happened was a concerted attack by Muslim radicals. The Administration and most Americans blew it, not that it mattered much now the damage was done.

    Not to denied, the GOP launched (was it eleven) a rash of investigations and Congressional hearings, mostly around then Secretary of State Clinton. Surprise, surprise. It all came to nothing. The last hearing Clinton testified in front of a GOP lynch mob for eleven hours and blew their accusations about endless screw ups by her out of the water. After the 2016 election, it blew over and disappeared, except for ultra right hangers-on.

    Now that another election is coming up, we can expect another serving of Benghazi from folks that have nothing else.
