Haha, there was that, the dijon mustard thing, and of course the tan suit.

Pretty much whenever they were running stories like that, I felt pretty confident that everything was ok.

I miss when that stuff was the extremes of petty arguments between GOP and DNC voters/media.

“A tan suit!? How unprofessional!”

Absolutely no logic to it they just wanted any reason to hate on the guy. I wasn’t an Obama voter in 08/12 but even I was like “who the hell cares? The guy looks sharp as hell in that suit”. Perfectly fitted with a modern cut while every GOP candidate at the time looked like they were wearing an oversized boxy suit Al Capone would have worn in the 1920s. Probably taking out their frustrations with their own tailors on Obama.

They also played the ‘uppity n***r’ angle when he dared to put his feet up on the… whatever the desk in the oval office is named.

Had a whole segment about how disrespectful, unhygenic, unprecedented this was… took a few days for people to find pictures of basically every President in the past 50 years doing the same thing.

Ah those were the days.

Glenn Beck watched some InfoWars streams and thought “I can just tone this down a bit and become famous” and then did that on Fox for a few years… Ann Coulter was still getting air time… Hannity still had Colmes as a punching bag…
