Yeah, but. As a general rule Democrats and independents don't deify their representatives. Obama was about 1,000,000x better than Trump, but I don't worship him. I don't wear his merch and put up giant signs covering my home and business proclaiming my loyalty to him, make him my entire personality and argue against the bad things he did. Remember, even the president is supposed to serve the People...
I remember when AM radio hosts were bothered by how much Obama was making off merchandising those posters and how unbecoming it was for someone trying to be president.
Weird how those same people said nothing when Trump started merchandizing everything from hats to wear when welcoming back dead soldiers, gold shoes, Bibles, NFT cards and a ballroom.
