Remember how conservatives excoriated Obama even when he said and did things they'd normally agree with? Remember how bizarre that seemed?

The analogy fails because we all know how much Trump’s words on the subject contradict his actual values, not to mention the policies he supports

So positive expression deserves furious condemnation unless closely aligned with previous expression (and with 3rd party assessments of one's stance)? That's a high bar! Also, I seem to recall dissonance between Obama's early and late LGBT stances. Did the latter deserve ?

Yes, hypocrisy should absolutely be examined and furiously condemned when it originates at the highest seat of power.

Also why do Trump supporters seem incapable of defending him without resorting to what-aboutism re Obama and/or Clinton?

So you have me pegged as a Trumper. I envy your binary clarity, Eugene.

He's just looking for votes!
