When it comes to the general public I remember a lot of people being pissed off at Obama for the exact same shit. I was also in highschool when he was president so I don't really remember how I felt about it (it was almost half my lifetime ago) but I do remember it being unpopular. I probably had a pretty shitty opinion about it because it was like 15 years ago and I'm pretty sure everyone my age had shitty opinions. I often catch myself thinking about what it was like when Obama was president and I'm like "dude, you were basically 12 when he first got elected. You don't remember shit about what it was like."
If you are still defending it now I honestly don't know what to say. Especially the politicians that weren't basically children when this happened. Y'all were there and did nothing.

Sure, but liberals still love him to death. See: The vote ratio on this post. I was too young for politics then, but I seriously doubt he was getting criticized as harshly as Trump is being right now. I mean Jeffries had to announce that the Dems aen't going to try to impeach Hesgeth (which they should absolutely do, don't get me wrong). Even if it's disapproval there's clearly a big difference in the amount of disapproval, as evidenced by how people tend to react to "Obama is a war criminal" vs "Trump is a war criminal."
Nah, I downvoted too. Liberals weren't happy about it then either, and just because they'd rather have an Obama than a Trump doesnt mean they were OK with everything Obama did.
Acting like a single issue (that people absolutely were upset about, and resulted in lawsuits, hearings, etc) suddenly means they should be OK with Trump doing it, or getting revisionist and pretending people were celebrating these strikes at the time because Obama did it, that's kind of ridiculous to me.
My downvote (not being a liberal) is mostly because you don't seem to understand that quite a few actual liberal also criticize(d) Obama for the drone strikes.
It's sort of like when an actually bad AAA game gets labeled by right-wing chuds as being Woke Liberal Propaganda because theres a LGBTQ+ person in it or something stupid like that, so liberals feel to start treating this game as a unfairly slandered masterpiece with a deep message. In reality it's bog-standard corporate slop that says nothing about anything out of fear of limiting its audience (and also barely runs) but unfortunately the people pointing this out the loudest are the chuds.
And then when the game finally finishes being a flop or worse, the chuds sort it into the "Proof that Go Woke = Go Broke" portfolio and we all have to deal with that forever.
Yikes these comments, if you're on leftymemes defending obama, you're either lost or trying to impressyour handler. This guy turned a sovereign state that was among the more productive in the region into an open air slave trade state. And no there was virtually no pushback on him unless you wanna count the tea party demonstrations.

Yep, I even remember reading that people wanted the Nobel committee to rescind the prize after he launched the murder drone program.
why is zionist scum wandering around in leftymemes?

People can think two things are bad.
