GOP in 2008. We can’t elect Obama, the world will laugh at us.

I was living in New York in 2008.
I remember picking up a copy of Rupert Murdoch’s New York Post days before the election, and reading the op-ed page.
There were two pieces that particular day. One said a vote for Obama was a waste, because he was just a warmed over neoliberal who’d push conservative ideas weakly. The writer thought that instead of a wishy-washy softy it was better to have a real conservative.
The other writer, on the same page, felt that Obama was a fire breathing leftist; a revolutionary who’d destroy America if he had half a chance.
The GOP was throwing everything it had at Obama, regardless of whether it made any sense whatever.
He said he was going to be a dictator, and everything he does indicates he is a dictator. Why is there even any question?
Here’s some more context for that.
Well that’s 5 min of my life I’ll never get back
My condolences. 🪦
So do the majority of Americans. At this point I’m honestly more pissed off at the ones to lazy or petty to go vote than I am actual Trump supporters. This could have easily been prevented.
You can tell it by the way it is
That isn’t very neat
