This is an extremely low effort take. Please put some additional thought as to why Obama should be charged (for what), and why jailing would be the correct response.

Keeping in mind the recent Supreme Court rulings that makes basically anything the President does (as an ‘official’ action) is legal.


nah, basically leftists agreed that Trump should be jailed when he was convicted of writing 100k in taxable instead of non-taxable column of some spreadsheet. And if he wrote it in the non-taxable column they would have found a different reason to do the same. And the entire time, everyone agreed that it was the worst reason ever to convict him. At the time you just shrugged and said Arrest Trump and now you're defending Obama and calling it baseless...

So my justification is that.

I mean look, we're post truth, so all that's going to happen is one side will show facts and say it's fake and the other side is going to show facts and say it's fake. At some point we have to either put down the pitchforks or just arrest each other for the fakeness. You already had your turn with Trump, now we shall arrest Obama.
