- VortexDream 5y agoAlso, he punished those responsible for the CIA torture program. Oh, wait, he didn't because "morale was so bad". Americans are a joke when it comes to their supposed values.
- bobthepanda 5y agoObama did try to close Guantanamo several times early on in his term. Congress passed amendments and bills that prohibited actually transferring detainees into the mainland US, because people went full NIMBY over “terrorists” in their backyard. The President’s power is not absolute.
