The difference in Barack Obama and Donald Trump as Commander-in-Chief?
Trump has been mostly "speak loudly and carry a small stick" and Obama was the opposite.
Trump couldn't wait to use the military. Obama was very hesitant to use the military.
Trump has made threats around the world, even to some of our allies. Obama was much more diplomatic.
Trump seems paranoid and fearful. The Muslim ban is a good example. Obama kept us relatively safe for eight years and never lost his cool or felt that we had to act counter to our Constitution.
There's a world of difference, it seems to me.
