<<<<<A big difference is that Trump routinely engages in criminal behavior, unlike Obama.>>>> True enough but an even bigger difference in my mind is that Obama understood his place in history and worked to accomplish good for the Country and the people. Trump on the other hand seems to be consistently in a state of complaining that someone is out to get him. I never imagined he would never get the position he was gifted and has pissed it all away.

A big difference is that Trump routinely engages in criminal behavior, unlike Obama.

Then, without a doubt, an extensive FBI investigation should land him in jail. We'll soon know.

>> Obama was squeaky clean. There just isn't any comparison.

When Obama took, whatever it was -- around 2 billion in unappropriated funds and gave it to the insurance companies, do you call that "squeaky clean?" Something specifically not allowed by law.

Although we don't know what transpired in the room, it was apparent that Obama extorted BP out of 10s of billions of dollars and that had it had sunlight disinfectant it would have been flatly illegal. We'll never know what was said but one thing is certain: Obama had to have threatened them.

Obama illegally ignored statutory provisions of his own ACA. Presidents don't have that right. If it is statutory, the president can't just override it to prevent negative political consequences. For obvious reasons.

As you know, there are lists all over the Internet, I'm not going to repeat them here.

Yes, Obama was a criminal. And yes, more than Trump has been to our knowledge.
