Showing Original Post only (View all)Trump Reportedly Upset That He Isn't As Respected as Barack Obama, According to GOP Pundit [View all]
I do think Trump knows how much Obama is respected and is just plain jealous of that respect.
But Trump has shown us that he will only get more cruel and ugly as time passes.

Literally everyone who isnt part of Trumps cult can see that Obama lives rent-free in the space of Donald Trumps head where a brain might otherwise be. President Obama couldnt even deliver a short and vague high school commencement address one that didnt mention Trump or anyone specifically without Trump firing off all kinds of over-the-top criticism, and this comes at the end of a week where Trump has been tweeting OBAMAGATE! and calling for Obama to be imprisoned. We wont even get into the fact that Trump got his start in politics by famously demanding to see Obamas long-form birth certificate and alleging Obama was Kenyan.
Trumps obvious inferiority complex and insane jealousy have people talking about what it is about Obama that drives Trump to such lengths.

But I dont think thats the biggest thing. I think Mathew Miller former Justice Department spokesperson hit the biggest thing:
Theres some racism there but, most of all, its driven by the fact that Obama has the thing that Trump has always craved but never achieved, and thats respect. Ive always thought that the respect that Barack Obama gets from people in this country and around the world is something that just eats Trump alive inside.
