Trump and others complaining about Pres. Obama's campaining forgot this

I hear them bitch about Obama using AF1 for campaign stops supporting Hillary and bashing tRump, saying he should be in the WH creating jobs.

They completely forgot George W Bush and his vigorous campaigning for GOP control of both the upper and lower house of Congress in the final weeks of the 2002 midterm elections, and he wasn't flying coach on Southwest. But I fully expected them to 'forget'.

unlike THEIR former president who left office with a 19% approval rating and is still toxic 8 years after he left office.

(Also: when the president uses AF1 to travel to campaign/political events, the travel expenses are 100% paid for by the candidate's campaign and/or the party.)
