the Cons are screwing norms left and right. It's about time Dems do that (ala Senators Mazie Hironi, Kamala Harris & Cory Booker @kavanaugh hearings). Obama couldn't just sit out while the Idiot & his enablers devastate our country. He is the Voice of Reason during this very dark time when our democracy is at stake. His amazing wife our First Lady is also taking a major role to get people signed up to vote in November. The Obamas are doing whatever they can to make sure we win this given so much is at stake. Let us follow their example and do what we can as well.

Yep; I think that was the whole point of his nomination and the votes he got.

I don't see that as a criticism of Obama, but a sign that things are so bad that it was necessary.
