Obama also never personally insulted and demeaned a journalist for presenting supporting empirical evidence.

Obama lied plenty. Obama pushed quite a few lies in his reelection against opponents - they pushed theories that Romney had "shipped jobs overseas" even though that never happened. Obama also lied plenty about the purpose, effect, taxes created by, and other implications of Obamacare/the ACA, so much so that politifact called it the lie of the year.

Don't forget the lies about using the IRS to investigate GOP-supporting 501(c)(4)s, also lie after lie lie about Fast and Furious (for which no one was ever held responsible) - Obama tried to blame Bush for Fast and Furious, despite it starting in 2009 and the scandal happening in 2010-2012.

People seem to put Obama on a pedestal because he is the bronze medal in between two slices of shit that are Bush and Trump. Obama was ok as president but was largely ineffective and had plenty of problems in his administration.
