Obama wasn't surprised that a right-wing populist could become president, but said he 'would have expected somebody a little more appealing' than Trump

that he would have expected it to be someone more manly than Donald Trump.

Obama told Goldberg that when he thinks about the traditional "male hero" in American culture, it conjures up characters like John Wayne, Gary Cooper and Clint Eastwood. Masculinity in a classic sense means, to Obama, being true to your word, taking responsibility and being someone who defends the vulnerable from bullies.

"I did not believe how easily the Republican establishment, people who had been in Washington for a long time and had professed a belief in certain institutional values and norms, would just cave," he told Goldberg.who ran on the ticket with John McCain in 2008. The excitement at her rallies compared to McCain's hinted that appeals to identity politics, nativism and conspiracies were gaining traction," Obama said.

hblodget I got news for Obama. It wasn't him. If the voting is correct then Joe Biden carried him!

Obama is a clown right along side most of the Business Insider writers (sic)

Face it, BarackObama, if you and JoeBiden would not have gone too far left nor too far right, then we would not have had realDonaldTrump. No President wants to say this is fair, and that is not. Treat all men, all parties gingerly. But no one wants to do that, hear all sides.

Obama did that poor a job

Those 8 years of Obama was a dark period for America. Made military weaker, he let China run amok, looked the other way on civil unrest and bowed to our enemies. Etc. he’s irrelevant.

Definitely didn’t bomb enough countries for Bombama to approve...

DESINFORMATION

Only thieves and crooks avoid eye contact.

So meaning anyone else at all
