Comment on Obama wasn't a hero; he just wasn't terrible
protist@mander.xyz 2 weeks agoI believe Obama didn’t have the confidence to disrupt the military industrial complex as it was operating post-GWB. I also think he feared the political repercussions of seeming “weak” on defense, which I think he misperceived. This was perhaps the most serious flaw in his presidency, which was otherwise great in regards to domestic policy

…leading some of the most disastrous dea and fbi raids in US history is good domestic policy?
He was a boring ‘good’, president if you were upper middle class or higher in a fairly conservative job and a white male. That’s about it. Those were the people that could tune out.
