Earlier this week, Chelsea Manning wrote an op-ed, where she attacked President Obama
for being a little too willing to compromise with the Republican party.
As a response to this op-ed that Chelsea Manning wrote, Donald Trump did what he does best,
and he took to Twitter, and called her, "A traitor."
"How dare she go after President Obama after he commuted her sentence?
How could somebody do this?"
Well, let me explain something to Donald Trump here, and pretty much to anyone else who's
wondering why Chelsea Manning would have the audacity to say negative things about Barrack
Obama.
There is nothing that Chelsea Manning said in that op-ed that you have not heard from
truly progressive media outlets for the last eight years.
Chelsea Manning talked about the fact that when Obama would go in to a negotiation with
the Republicans, he was already willing to give things up before he walked through that
door.
He went through that door and before he said, "These are the things we want," he would say,
"These are the things we're willing to give up.
Now where do you stand Republicans?"
And they wouldn't budge, so he'd give up a little more, until eventually, we end up something
with like the Affordable Care Act, that originally had a single-payer option in it.
That would have solved a lot of the healthcare problems in the Untied States.
Democrats, the second they encountered any Republican opposition, took it away.
Gone.
Could have been the most sweeping healthcare reform the United States has ever seen, something
that would have transformed the system completely, inside and out, and the Democrats gave it
up at the very first of opposition, even though it was overwhelmingly approved by both Republicans
and Democrats in the United States public.
72%.
72% of this country wanted that in that legislation.
Republicans and Democrats.
Republicans in Washington opposed, so the Democrats got away with it, and it's things
like that that Chelsea Manning is pointing out.
She's not saying, "He's an idiot for commuting her sentence."
She's not saying, "He was a horrible President."
She was saying, "That in terms of being a negotiator, in terms of being a truly progressive
reformer, he failed," and he did.
Anyone who looks at this Presidency honestly, has to admit that to himself.
President Obama was a good guy.
He did a few good things as President.
Quite a few good things.
But, he could have done more, had he not been so wiling to give up everything in the face
of opposition, and that's what Chelsea Manning was talking about, and that's what progressive
media has been talking about for eight years.
So, I guess, if Chelsea Manning is a traitor, then we're all traitors, because we had the
nerve to tell Obama, "To stand up for himself a little bit more."
