   President Obama: "It did not start with Donald Trump. He is a symptom, not the cause."

   The racist faces change, but the root cause remains the same and goes back centuries.

   There is such a striking contrast in the speech delivery styles of Obama and Trump. It’s remarkable. Without arguing about which is better, the reality is that Trump’s delivery style, a complete contrast to Obama’s, is one of the reasons he won.

   Obama on the NYT op-ed:
   "That’s not how our democracy’s supposed to work. These people aren’t elected…They’re not doing us a service by actively promoting 90 % of the crazy stuff that’s coming out of this White House, and saying, ‘Don’t worry, we’re preventing the other 10%.’”
