It is too bad journalists idolized Obama instead of being embarrassed by what he did

Ruth Marcus of the Washington Post implies that all of us are embarrassed by President Trump. We essentially get different versions of the same things trashing Trump every day. I am absolutely not ashamed of Trump but I am ashamed of Ruth Marcus and most other journalists who somehow were never embarrassed by, but actually proud, of our previous president, who didn’t understand that leading from behind was not leading.

Has there been a more embarrassing year for the United States? Thinking Americans cringe at what foreign countries and their leaders make of us and our president, with his reckless upending of international agreements, his bigoted and poorly executed  travel ban, his unashamed ignorance, his reckless tweets, his endless susceptibility to flattery.

Journalists and other Democrats should have been embarrassed but weren’t when: 

-Obama reneged on our commitment to put up missile shields in Poland and the Czech Republic
