Obama has mis-handled this to such a great extent (the entire “me me me” aspect) he’s leaving himself wide open to Donald Trump’s next well-timed skewering.
Obama will come unglued for having the focus taken off his big “me me me” moment.
Probably so bothered, he’ll play more golf.
I agree Obama manages to make everything about himself, well, unless it's something bad and then he is back to blaming Bush. Still, he's a politician and this is par for the course for many of his ilk.
People were not judging Obama on whether or not the US has or hasn't killed Bin Laden, and his death simply doesn't have any impact on most people's lives other than a few feel good moments that we finally got a bad guy. Hussein is not going to get any lasting bump from this, because the voters are focused on the economy and the economy stinks and Obama's handling of it has been awful.
I think you and some others think Trump is far more significant politically than he actually is. These are serious times we live in and Trump is not a serious candidate - as such he will fade away as the media gets tired of his antics and the public loses interest. Oh sure, Trump will flail about saying goofy things to get more attention. He will probably throw out some more F-Bombs, perhaps call the Chinese mother****ers in public again, threaten to seize oil fields from our allies, etc, but none of this is the talk of a serious person and it won't take long for the public to see through his clownish nonsense. I think Trump's time in the political spotlight is already slipping away.
