Exactly the discussion I had with my brother just recently.
In whatever way you want to explain it and for whatever reason, “O” got handed a pure gold opportunity to be a standout STAR…. and to positively OWN 21’st century American history.
Did he take advantage of it?
NO!
Instead, he squandered every single chance his position had and continues to offer him, to look good and be a hero. It’s something anyone could have done in their sleep, with a minimum of effort and without compromising the least gram of personal conviction!!
He chose the low road and STAYED there.
He has never once capitalized on the status which is automatically BUILT INTO his Presidency-as the FIRST American, minority President.
Why he chose to maliciously and deliberately subvert (out of spite or stupidity) his OWN chances for absolute and lasting national significance is absolutely asinine and so childish that it’s embarrassing.
Again, I am not decided whether he’s done this out of stupidity or spite.
Is the anti-establishment, anti-American mindset SO corrosive to one’s character and so antithetical to basic common sense that he can’t see past his own nose on this stuff?
Is he that shallow and malevolent or just plum dumb?
So true. He had the opportunity to do/be something truly great and historic. With his speaking abilities(though by prompter), he could have really built bridges and been what the black people needed.
As you correctly stated, he chose to take the ‘low road’ instead, and drug the Presidency down with him. Just completely pathetic what he turned out to be.
The most correct description of him I can think of is the one Rush often uses. He’s just a “Man-Child”. He truly is a little bitch. I wouldn’t refer to him as a ‘man’ by any means.
