Another example of how strange our politics has become. Trump has been breaking the No-speak rule spectacularly in virtually every one of his rallies, not to mention in tweets and Fox interviews.
Obama says something on a closed line--an accurate diagnosis/description at that--and he's suddenly "classless."
The Trump context/comparison is automatically framed out of McConnell's judgement, as if no president, including Trump, had ever criticized a predecessor, and now WHADDAYAEXPECT Obama is showing everyone how low he really is.
Also framed out is that Trump crazy accusations have remained unfounded, while Obama's critique needs to be urgently considered in a time of crisis.
The MSM will point out the irony and illogic, but McConnell's target audience doesn't read fake news.
And suddenly we have another example of liberal hypocrisy--always complaining about Trump while IGNORING WHAT OBAMA DID.
