Imagine for a moment if Barack Obama embraced Black Lives Matter over white America.

Imagine if he promoted fiscal policies that exploded the national deficit.

Imagine if he alienated allies, while embracing enemies. Imagine if he were laughed at, literally by the world while speaking at the UN.

Imagine if he met with foreign dictators with little or no preconditions. Imagine if he questioned the loyalty to country of those that oppose him.

Imagine if he promoted the idea that a free press were the enemy of the state. Imagine if he pushed the narrative of alternate facts. Imagine if he lied.

How then would you feel? Would you be a “hater”? Would you, as Mitch McConnell said, make it your job to insure a one-term presidency?

Am I being asked by followers of President Donald Trump to believe that none of this happened? Or am I being told that none of this matters? Will the re-election theme for Donald Trump be that God works in mysterious ways and Democrats are simply godless?
