How much do we miss this man, Barack Obama?

That is very hard to quantify how much we miss Obama, but – unfortunately, we may soon have one means by which to quantify how much we miss President Obama, the number of lives needlessly lost, the number of businesses needlessly shuttered, and the amount of money needlessly lost.

Still, President Obama is President Obama:

Watch this. It shows why we should all do the right thing and stay home to the fullest extent possible. All of us can help slow the spread of the virus, protecting the elderly, the vulnerable, and each other. https://t.co/FgffQrMVB7

Good information, thank you – we all need to see it.

Not everybody can stay home, and we owe a big debt of gratitude to health professionals, transit and airport workers, first responders, and everyone keeping our communities going. Leaders have to step up to support people whose lives and livelihoods take a hit in the weeks ahead.

And now just to show you how sick some people in this country continue to be, the hatefulness in people’s hearts, here is the first response to his second tweet, or at least the first one that is on my thread:

We don't want or need your wishes in our health field.

You're not part of this solution, Barack. You helped create it.

They will believe anything.

Barack Obama had an epidemic team assembled in the White House, one that worked, and had already been through the drill in 2018, but because Obama had put it together, Trump had to have it disbanded, completely, so that the cupboard was bare when it came time to respond to another epidemic.

Yet the Right-wing machine somehow has their cultists believing that Barack Obama had something to do with this?

Forget that, let’s go back to hearing from a real president:

YES! A good thought. And this is what a president should sound like. Thanking others. Not constantly lavishing praise on this own people.

Isn’t it wonderful to hear from a president that doesn’t have to spend the entire tweet talking about the fantastic job he’s doing or his own greatness?

I love this:

Some perfection. Isn’t this all of us?

And the fake president is worried about fake things:

God help us all, or better yet, Barack Obama help us all – as he always did, just wasn’t appreciated by all.

Peace, y’all
