Even back in 2008, when I identified with the Center-Left, I found the worship of Barack Obama as deeply unsettling. Including during the inauguration and his victory. It was weird to listen to people say that they "never thought this day would come", despite the fact that basically no one in the majority of the country took issue with the idea of a black president. Hell, I was still citing Back To The Future for cultural references of people having become completely tolerant to the idea of black leading politicians.

And just a reminder of how creepy they really were...

"God Emperor Trump" was a joke.

"I pledge to be a servant of Barack Obama" was not.
