In the end it was Obama was the celebrity president too. Fancied himself as hollow, arrogant, bored. But easily controlled by the Washington apparatus unlike Trump. And clutching a token peace prize while involving himself in more violent conflicts than his predecessors. Not much different than you'd expect of a Freshman Senator who lucked into the job because he ran against stuffed shirts (and pantsuits) and looked the part. High IQ, token Mulatto.
As a result he has no legacy, and serves as a reflection of an amoral and empty pseudo-liberalism that supports global capitalism and reactionary pandering. His base are people who say they feel hurt and sad yet can show no injury...adult children waving their hands at a human muppet who read sentiment off a TelePromp for 8 years. "Love Wins" and "Refugees Welcome" affirmations of morons trapped in a self hug; are now the corporate branding of selfishness. They are slogans to help you forget Chinese factories with suicide nets and the ugliness of addiction, poor life choices, and your latest diet that just won't work. You're still a chub. Obama wasn't just great because he washed away White Guilt. But because he was busy meddling in emotional events while Imperial Washington was free to do whatever they liked. For that, he's a hero.
