He succeeded in what he set out to do: give a nice face to American imperialism.
And I admit, Obama had charisma and was a proper statesman, in stark contrast to what came before and after. But most policies, with single exceptions like Medicaid, were standard neoliberal bullshit. And he didn’t stop the machine from going to where it is now, which is his biggest failure in my opinion.
Pretty sure giving it to Kissinger did that long ago.
Also Obama
Yeah, being an adult is recognizing that Obama was a great President, but he did not deserve that Peace Prize.
He was a standard neoliberal whose greatest virtue was nearly qualifying for Just Liberal
Genuinely surprised seeing the Obama love here.
I guess the past decade has really made people forget the actually bad things he did.
