In 2 Terms, Barack Obama Had Fewer Scandals Than Donald Trump Has Had In The Last 2 Weeks

WASHINGTON ― Scandal has consumed the final four years of every two-term president in modern history ― George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, Ronald Reagan, Richard Nixon. Barack Obama’s administration is the exception.

While there were some minor scandals and resignations during Obama’s eight years in office, wrongdoing never fully occupied his presidency. None of it even directly touched the White House. There were no grand juries investigating his aides. There were no impeachments. There were neither convictions of White House staffers, nor pardons to protect government officials.

I guess they forgot about:
Operation Fast and Furious
Eric Holder held in contempt of Congress
Spying on journalists
The IRS scandal
Benghazi
Hillary Clinton’s secret server
Spying on journalists
The Pigford scandal
Iran nuclear deal and ransom paymen
The VA death-list scandal
Solyndra

Where I got most of the list:

Add to that list Holder's shutting down the New Black Panthers voter intimidation case, which the NBPs were going to lose because they refused to present a defense.

None of Trump's supposed 'Scandals' involved getting anyone killed, unlike Fast & Furious or Benghazi or running guns into Syria, nor committing crimes in the US under the shelter of the Federal government as a shield, like the IRS scandal or, again, Fast and Furious.

Fake news on events that never occurred <> "scandal"

It is like a little boy calling another kid names and then saying "no one every called ME names!"

Seriously, what "scandals" has Trump had in the past two weeks? Cabinet picks Libs & Progs hate and are slandering? BuzzFeed's loony-toony hoax-story ("We can't confirm a thing, but we'll let the public decide if it's true or not.") and CNN's, "Me, too!", "Me, too!"? Trump's beat-down of BuzzFeed and CNN?

If the propaganda media does not recognize a scandal then it does not exist.  :censored:

It was the propaganda media that finished Nixon. It was the propaganda media that protected Obama.

The last POTUS to be impeached was #42, William Jefferson Clinton, a solid (D), who was at the center of one of the largest White House scandals ever.

WJC is also married to the 2016 Democratic presidential nominee, Hillary Clinton, who will never be President of The United States.
