I think she’s joking about how people over-report his trivial shit. But it can be read as blithely ignoring the monstrous crimes Obama did commit while in office, because it echoes a lot of the liberal apologia of the administration that amounted to “The worst thing Obama ever did was wear a tan suit”.
While I don’t think she has talked about Obama’s war crimes or things adjacent to it, I find it hard to believe that she would be saying that seriously especially the both sides part. Tho her response to the criticism doesn’t make it better.
You’re reading it wrong, she’s stating you can’t make a moral equivalence between Obama and, say, Trump or something because supposedly the worst things obama did were silly.
Am I reading this wrong? I assume Natalie is making a joke about how people under report Obama’s nasty shits
