The point Crunchy is making is that if Obama had done any of what's listed above, even Dems would've given him shit.

C'mon!

Yup Dems would have given him shit if he had done this shit .Good thing Obama didn't and Trump did.

Also Bush was criticized  by his own party so was Obama

Any Dem would be ripped apart for having 5 children from three wives.
Any Dem would be ripped apart for appointing that many Goldman sachs  employees
Any Dem would be ripped apart for playing golf as much as Trump
Any Dem would be ripped apart for flip flopping as much as Trump
Any Dem would be ripped apart for the exact same evidence showing ties to Russia
Any Dem would be ripped apart for having paid $25 million to settle a suit involving fraud (Trump U)
Any Dem would be ripped apart for absolutely blatant nepotism
and on
and on

Trump is being ripped apart for these things by those who don't like him.  It would be the same for any Democrat.  Those who didn't like them would criticize them and those who support them would not.  Obama wasn't attacked by Democrats, but by Republicans.  The same the other way for Bush.

So at least you agree it's hypocrisy.
I don't doubt that Democrats can also be hypocrites but I do think that it's a false equivalency to see them as exact equals in this regard at this time.
Obama did do somethings that should have been more heavily criticized by his own party (drone use for example) however these examples pale in comparison to even the short list here.

Like I do with religion, I don't see liberals and conservatives being equally bad in the same way at the same time.
If god was real he wouldn't need middle men to explain his wants or do his bidding.

Trump is a joke and is being ripped apart by the entire world.
Obama was respected.
Obama won the nobel peace prize, trump is taking the world to the brink of wars with (pick an enemy, he has made many).
He has destroyed your health care.
And........oh whats the point, these people will fellate him no matter what he does.
