It seems like we see that gelatinous, orange troglodyte's ugly mug on tv every.single.day. Numerous times - standing at a podium blathering on.

I will admit when Obama was president, I didn't pay as close attention because I felt a little safer. So I was wondering if it's because I'm paying attention more or our media is obsessed with everything he says. Hoping to be the first to catch or report on some idiotic or dangerous statement.

And then that fills their airwaves for the next 24 hours.

Obama was presidential and you could count on him to be so.

It has to do with the fact that Obama has class and trump does not.
