It kind of is, but not in the reason they’re thinking… But Obama mocking Trump at that White House Correspondents Dinner is said to have been a major impetus for Trump’s 2016 campaign.
This is what I find interesting about the framing of blame.
It was “Obama’s fault” for cheekily responding to Trump’s racist Birther Movement that he was from Africa, with a clip from Lion King?
This is the racist undertone that a lot of people pick up on when they blame Obama for ‘2025 Hitler’. You forget there were effigies of Obama being lynched outside the White House. Republicans initiated a specific anti-Obama obstructionism policy during his administration. All of this uncooperative behavior was because he was black. Claiming Obama didn’t do enough to appeal to the fascists who weren’t going to work with him on policy anyway is giving a pass to fascists.

Wow, way to completely misrepresent what I said.
Where did I say anything was “Obama’s fault”? In fact, I was clarifying what the person above me said… I would never use those words.
