Ben Sasse giving a graduation speech in which he calls the kids fat and says psychologists are useless
Bad:
The first black president giving a graduation speech to HBCU's that specifically addresses the issues currently facing black America
As to your first example:
Both are bad, but at least POTUS has the personal courage to place a name to a task. Seems Obama would be quite popular in this forum. 'i said some vile shit about you, but I didn't actually use your name, so I'm OK". At least Obama should own it.
In all of my years I've never seen a sitting president so critical of former President and I've also never seen a former president so critical of a sitting President. Both are acting beneath the office.
As to the last comment:
Sasse shouldn't have called kids fat; I'd have to get the context to respond to the psychologists comments.
