But you're spot-on in the implication that he is a tool to be used, and discarded when his utility runs out. Spot-on.
Trumps "leadership style" reminds of prime minster RB Bennett (he was PM during the depression ) He was often criticized to being over bearing and arrogant and autocratic when it came to decision making . And may very well have extended to depression by 5 years in Canada . I think there is a lesson there .

Sound familiar Making extravagant promises, I see that similarity. I think Trump either isn't so forceful on the job, or the people around him know how to corral him.

Indeed, the media was filled with Republicans hating on Obama.

No, but I do remember countless of my repube friends constantly posting memes of 44 on FB and constantly bringing up the birther bullshit started by 45.
This shit is insane. No where in the history of ever, in the US have we ever had a president as horrible as 45. Nixon comes in second, but even his camp doesn't want to be linked or compared with the orange cheeto

Exactly Nymphadora
The fucking birther lie of hate. Divided whites and blacks even further in many areas. My black friend said as when Obama became president he lost some white clients and many stopped speaking to him. I think we need more conversations between the races.
P.S. Im a cosmologist too although id rather chat with my clients then do their hair now-a-days:0 shhhh
I was a born-again christian for many years then I got woke.. and now life is better in so many ways. It's taking me time to see my value and find my voice, but the reward is liberating knowing my path is not dictated or controlled by fear of death and the unknown. Casting off the shackles of religion is pretty fucking awesome. The beautiful people I've met on this forum have more heart and compassion than any group of people I've been apart of. So back off Jesus and followers, because this bitch is done with Chu.

Fortunately, the internet is the digital elephant that never forgets:

There are about another 5.6 million results on line for the search 'Obama not my president'. I hope this refreshes your memory.

Well EU is kind of like the fourth reich with lack of fascism. So it is kind of like 1940 in modern times except you are not forced on gunpoint unless you want it democratically, which is why UK voted out democratically. Aka EU German empire of deciding what European countries should do incase of sharing burdens. So by then you really dont have much of a voice compared to the parlaments in EU.

Yeah, I can see how you would have missed it. It was only on CBS.com and other mainstream outlets.

Brexit is a massive error in every conceivable way. I was proud to be part of Europe and feel that a part of my identity has been ripped from me, mainly by bigots.
