Actually the Wapo reference is because for some reason that shit finds itself into my news feed all the time. I've found myself reading something that seems crazy bad then googling it to find the original source is Wapo, doing more research and finding out that this is something that has historically happened during transition of power. I was thinking that might be happening to you as well and the situation seems worse than it is. Also keep in mind that bush/Obama was essentially one 16 year president. That's a really long time so any transition is gonna seem chaotic in comparison. I'd like to caveat this by saying that trump is doing some undesirable things with his first 100 days but the at least to me don't seem more than 1std deviation bad.
This is an ignorant and insane statement. Right. Because Obama's campaign manager put gay marriage bans on the ballots in 11 states in 2004 while Bush hailed same sex marriage in 2015. Obama launched wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and Bush drew them down. Obama pushed for regime change in Cuba while under Bush, Jet Blue flew to Havana. You can want your statements to be true? But you can't defend them.Also keep in mind that bush/Obama was essentially one 16 year president.
