    Nicholas Grossman Retweeted fun and also good

    Interesting that much of this viral list of Obama "scandals" involves using force in Middle East/North Africa. Not a comment on the specific cases (which I could do at length). Just noteworthy how Obama gets criticized both for using too much force and for not using force enough.https://twitter.com/martsendo/status/1032704156362977280 …

    Nicholas Grossman added,

    fun and also good @martsendo
    I miss Obama. His only scandal was a tan suit/Chelsea Manning's torture/the extrajudicial murder of Abdulrahman al-Awlaki/destroying Libya/arming and enabling the Saudi destruction of Yemen/letting the bankers off scott-free/mass deportation/the drone kill list/Espionage Act/...

        And most of them are policy disagreements (many of which I share), not actual "scandals" in the normal sense. It would be like me adding the tax bill to Trump's list of his scandals.

        Replying to @TroublesomeF

        I had the same thoughts. Was going to write something about the definition of “scandal,” and how policymaking through the proper channels cannot be a scandal, no matter how much one disagrees with the results. Has to involve illegal, or at least improper, activity of some kind.

        I also like how the right is now whining that he let bankers off too easily, when they were the ones pushing that bill.

        I think this one's coming from (or targeted at) the left, rather than the right. Although there's some wrap-around with libertarians over War on Terror stuff.

        It’s a Russian RT meme appealing to the libertarian wing in the US.

        Interesting. It's clearly targeted at left-wing Americans (the right-wing list of Obama scandals looks different). And it worked. Over 20k retweets is a lot.

        Sadly, this one, depending on how you define "scandal".
