He's not responsible for the anger Trump is tapping into, he has just been the person they have directed it at for the last 8 years. There's a reason why Trump's supporters do not care when he blatantly lies or misleads them. He reassures them that what they believe is reality is reality.
btw, being President IS the bully pulpit. Teddy Roosevelt made that up to describe the office of the President because it is a great (bully) pulpit. It doesn't mean being an authoritarian leader.
Attributing it solely to his race is one dimensional as shit.
His "if I had a son comment" had no place when he made it.
