It’s so funny when I see people say “Obama was divisive” because he wouldn’t have won the states he won by being divisive and he tried to be a unifier 😭😭

Well he won comfortably but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t divisive at all. Realistically a black president in a country full of racists was naturally divisive, but many of the people who were upset about that were concentrated in states Obama wouldn’t have won regardless. But I think it’s more accurate to say the country was very divided during Obama’s presidency more so than Obama himself was divisive

Yeah that’s fair, America was definitely divided then, as now, but it wasn’t bc of anything Obama did I think
