I cannot remember a time in US History when a sitting president mocked his own citizens who disagreed with his policies.
Anyone?

I cannot remember a time in US History when a sitting president mocked his own citizens who disagreed with his policies. Anyone?Only once. When LBJ wanted to escalate the Vietnam war, there was some pushback, especially in his own party. He called the opponents "Nervous Nellies". My dad was a big fan of LBJ until that point. Ever afterward, he cursed him until the day he died.
No president should ever mock the populace. Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette = exhibit A and B.

Bill Clinton made a remark on election eve of 1996 about some people who were laughing. He said something to the effect that, “I’ll bet they won’t be laughing tomorrow morning”. Clinton had a nasty attitude but he usually hid it much better than Obama does. Neither had any real respect for the people of America.
