Yes, you're right - the Press treated Obama just like Trump

A journalist announced last week that he will publish a photograph of then-Illinois Sen. Barack Obama (D) and Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan that he took in 2005 at a Congressional Black Caucus meeting, but did not make public because he believed it would have “made a difference” to Obama’s political future.

The photographer, Askia Muhammad, told the Trice Edney News Wire that he “gave the picture up at the time and basically swore secrecy.”

“But after the nomination was secured and all the way up until the inauguration; then for eight years after he was President, it was kept under cover,” Muhammad said.

Asked whether he thought the photo’s release would have affected Obama’s presidential campaign, Muhammad said, “I insist. It absolutely would have made a difference.”

In the city of Herne, around 17.2 per cent of the 161,306 inhabitants were migrants in 2017 – up from 16.4 per cent in 2016. That year, Mohammed was the third most popular name in the city.

Andrea Ewels, Managing Director of GfdS, said: “The development is, of course, related to the wave of immigration,” and added that she expected Mohammed to be in the top 10 names by 2021 or 2022.

I don't think Melania liked that story.

You know he has to be pissed that he has to be super extra sneaky to get away with this stuff now that he's president.

Or someone could start a rumor that the guy with two kids, both of whom never get in trouble, by the same women who he's still married to and have a good marriage, wasn't born in Hawaii.....

But god damn if he's not 100 times the human being that Trump is. I just finished watching the first episode of David Letterman's "My Next Guest Needs No Introduction" on Netflix where he has Obama on. The press should treat Trump worse than they treated Obama, because Trump is worse than Obama. Trump is worse than pretty much everyone.

I don't see the value in false equivalences. Trump is a fucking piece of shit. Whose interest is served by engaging in the pretense that Trump and Obama are in any way equals? Certainly not the American people's.

So, basically, this thread is utter trash. Fuck Trump, fuck Trump apologism (yeah, I just made up a word, I'm like drunk Shakespeare up in this bitch). I miss Barack, and I didn't even really like him that much. This is the absolute nadir of the presidency, and I don't see why the press ought to obscure that fact.
