What people really miss is not Obama. People miss competence, decency, and sanity.
As a part of the famous Democratic circular firing squad, I was extremely critical of most of Obama's administration. But I voted for him twice, and I'd take him over Trump in a heartbeat.

That's a difference between left and right. Conservatives value in-group loyalty more than truth or consistency. They fall in line. Feels good in their brain.
This is an effective strategy, at least unless whatever objective reality they're rejecting catches up with them.
No no, as a Brit, genuinely, I miss Obama. (As well as all the competence, decency and sanity.)
We want our American imperialists to be competent not an embarrassment.
