Critics are wrong about Obama presidency

I voted for Mr. Obama twice. I feel that he has the highest moral and personal character both as President and as citizen. He pulled America out of one of the greatest recessions, gave us national health care, reduced cent, killed O the national deficit by almost 10 per sama bin Laden, provided 73 months of private sector job growth, increased funding for veteran affairs along with downsizing our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan from 180.000 to just 15,000, and the list goes on.

What I do not understand is how President Obama had a so-called "disastrous" presidency?

President Obama tried to work with both Republicans and Democrats in a bipartisan way, bringing all sides together to make America great. Not against in a partisan way. Not all his work was successful, as with all presidents. And many people did not agree with his policies.

But ...

President Obama did not attack Gold Star families, did not make racist remarks, did not talk about grabbing women in a sexual manner, did not make fun of people with obvious physical disabilities, Obama quietly made personal visits to Gold Star families at air force bases and cemeteries, did not insult leaders of other countries, of whom many are America's allies. And the list goes on.

President Donald Trump is not a man who I feel has high moral and personal character.

As far as liberal media, someone needs to read the United States Constitution, which makes it one of the freedoms stated in the First Amendment, Freedom of the press.

I am an American. I did not vote for Trump.
