TBH, diseases give most Presidents trouble... Let's face it few are elected on their ability to deal with that. Trump is doing O.K. with it... At least he seems to take it seriously... One of my biggest beefs with Obama was in his handling of the Swine Flu. Man, it couldn't have been done worse. That, and sending planes of money to Iran, a true WTH moment.
Then your biggest beefs with President Obama are based upon lies. Probably because you utilize fake news sources who lie almost as often as Trump does.

So, I’m sorry, but you’re wrong.
We have very different perspectives.
You speak of him.
I look at results.
Part of what you’re missing is that the President of the United States is our chief international ambassador. And international relations, like any business, are based upon trust and dependability, and yes, even forming friendships during the formation of contracts between the business partners. In this way Trump’s pathological lying and purposeful misinformation campaign, as well as his flagrant racism make dealings between the United States and other countries much less stable than if we have a sane president. These standard transactional dealings that Trump has failed in so miserably, lead both to the loss of billions upon billions of dollars in agreements with our partner nations, as well as a discernible political and even military instability across the face of the earth. Yes I am not exaggerating.
But not to worry because China and Russia have gobbled up all of the agreements that Trump has thrown away. So much for making us a stronger and greater nation.
Now let’s look at the original article and the seven points that you claim are just simple personality problems.
The first two points go to my line of thinking above. The second one; corruption, is in fact one of Trump’s campaign promises to drain the swamp. He did not. He in fact deepened the swamp, poisoned it, and filled it with rotting decay. It would take pages upon pages to discuss all the ways in which nepotism and flagrant corruption has infected the executive branch and even the judicial branch of the United States. McConnell is responsible for the parallel corruption in the legislative branch. You believe that Kavanaugh is a decent choice for the SCOTUS, but he already shows that he is not. That is material for a different thread.
The third point of him being a conman cannot be over-emphasized. His only significant achievement in the last 3 1/2 years has been a tax break for the wealthy. It has only benefited a few upper middle class people in the extreme short-term, but not to the extent of the damage that he has done to our economy in the long term, and it furthers the horrific and unsustainable economic situation with our income disparity in the United States, that Reagan started and Bush Junior amplified.
To this day and forever more I will be particularly disgusted by how Trump tacked on the benefit to large scale real estate developers such as himself in his tax break for billionaires.
Point number four has definitive affects that you only have to watch the daily news and look out your window in many cases to see. Plus again it relates back to my main point above. This is not just a personality problem it is a policy problem for the United States. You should know better.
#5 is purely a policy point. His campaign of intentional misdirection and reversal of the tiny steps so far taken will cost us more than his four year term to recover from.

Points number 6 and 7 simply circle back to the corruption cited in point number two above, which in turn leads to international relations and are utter failure over the last four years, and the disgraceful impact it will have upon further international multibillion-dollar dealings and military settlements over the next 20 years at least.
Face it
@Revoltingest this isn’t just about personality, it is about policy. At the level of POTUS, personality is policy and policy is personality, whether you know it or not. Trump is a disgrace and an utter failure. He has failed the American people’s trust and respect as well as our international relations, and he must be removed at all costs. He has failed United States business dealings and economy both internally and internationally, promoting civil unrest and international military instability worldwide, and he must be removed at all costs.
.....and this is the brief version of his list of crimes.
