Why this POTUS?

So I had a discussion with a conservative friend and I posed a question to him. "Why all the negative 

reaction to THIS president?" Mind you my question was not 'what don't you like about his polities' 

Because if you want to have a discussion about the ACA, yes there are absolutely discussions to be 

had. Or any other part of his presidency. The question was why all the unpleasantness? Why not 

unpleasantness against Bush? Who passed the Patriot act? Or Reagan who passed the only Assault 

weapon ban in US History? I can literally point out any number of reasons that Conservatives should 

be mad at other presidents that they love. Or at least be pleased with parts of this Presidents time in 

office. Shit I can criticize this POTUS on actual points. And mind you they are points that the people I 

talk to... for lack of a better word don't seam smart enough to understand. I can name things I actually 

approve of from Bush Jr's stay in office. I can name quite a few that Reagan did. (Mind you Reagan 

would be called a Rhino in todays GOP) So all I can figure is it comes down to one of three things. #1: 

They lost twice and they are sore losers. #2: They can't handle that a smart successful man of mixed 

race is in office. #3: They are panicking because they see they are losing on most every bigoted front 

they can find. And they have convinced people who other side would not give a shit that they should. 

And those are the people that make me mad. On more then one occasion I have had the conversation 

about the POTUS and gun control... You know. The POTUS who cant actually put forth a law on gun 

control. Who has never tried to and who basically had to be the bigger man when the GOP's Answer to 

'can we have a serious discussion about the gun violence problem in the united states' was to put laws 

in place like. Anyone can carry a gun into a court house in the state of Texas, or into schools, or now a 

law that lets teachers use there discretion on weather or not to Shot there students if they are breaking 

school property.
