Wait lol, are you seriously blaming the Democrats for not stopping the Republikkklowns? Holy shit my dude, how was that pitcher of kool aid? This is sad. Would you also argue that if I shot and killed you, it's your fault for not stopping me? I shouldn't go to jail because you had your chance to do something about it and you didn't? Terrible take 1 outta 10.

They had major chances to implement left wing policy during Obama's 8 year presidency, but they gave you a right wing healthcare plan courtesy of Mitt Romney (without the public option). He bailed out the banks and kicked 5.2 million families out on the street. He dropped a record number of bombs, used drones more than anyone else.

I'm going to call massive bullshit on that one bud. The racist rapist with 34 felonies had more drone strikes in four years than Obama did in 8 years. Piss off with your bullshit.

Source for that? It's quite an open truth that Obama was a leading murderer. Not that every other US president since ww2 also would hang if they were put to the same standard as at the Nuremberg trails.

Maybe 5 seconds of interwebs searching

https://www.cfr.org/blog/obamas-final-drone-strike-data Obama still holds the record. Both are murderers at least we can agree on that.

Except Trump changed the reporting laws and a bunch of his aren't reported, and your data is "estimated". I'm going with the rapist with 34 felonies has more since that's where the proof is.
