No, no, I’m sure the president that ripped children from parents and put them in cages would show a benevolent concern for the well-being of distant Muslims.
I still get responses asking for a source despite linking sources yesterday as a response to the top response to this comment alongside so many others that the guy who originally asked edited his comment to say "That is a lot of sources, guys. Thanks very much!". I don't believe that's laziness, that's willful ignorance.
I'd also like to clarify this here so I stop responding to so many butthurt Trumpists trying to either play whataboutism or claim I'm playing whataboutism.
Obama used drones. Trump used drones. Both are bad for their actions. If you want to compare them, Trump rolled back the Obama moves towards transparency. Trump has used them more. Trump has been less careful with them. Trump has expressed publicly his intention to 'bomb the shit out of them.' In the end, both can be called bad moves by evil men.
But this post is not about creating a false equivalency of "Trump is bad and Obama is great." It's about tearing down one that is created by the poster in the OP. You can be against Obama for his drone strikes, and that's a respectable position to take. You can't however, criticize Obama for bombing middle eastern kids while peddling some sort of false narrative that Trump stopped the bombings and saved the middle eastern kids. That's the hypocrisy this post and my response points out, not that Obama is somehow absolved of his crimes. Obama bombings=bad. Trump bombings=bad (and more). Biden bombings=haven't happened yet, but would also be bad.
Fuck off you trumpist boot lickers. Biden is your daddy now.

He also has double the bombings of Obama's 8 years within the first 1 of his.
edit: So many comments, lots of butthurt Trumpers.
Here's a link to a great comment with some hard(er) data on this: https://www.reddit.com/r/SelfAwarewolves/comments/k5040w/this_sub_is_self_defeating/gecdfjp/

Damn... I'd completely forgotten that. It horrified and saddened me at the time, and yet I forgot...
