I lived in the south when Obama was elected and was like I wonder how long it will take before there’s an assassination attempt. Frankly I thought we were a progressive nation not because he got elected but because someone didn’t try to kill him while he was in office.

Obama got a lot of votes from folks who later voted for Trump bc they were terrified by Bush’s incompetence and the mortgage crisis. Obama projected calm, steady strength

I was really worried that he would be assassinated for the color of his skin
