Andrew Puzder* was on C-SPAN this morning, saying people like Trump's policies,
and the attacks on Trump are of a 'personal nature';
..... adding "No one ever attacked President Obama on a 'personal level'.
*former chief executive officer of CKE Restaurants, the parent company of Hardee's and Carl's Jr.;
Puzder had "come under intense fire from Democrats and liberal groups who accused him of mistreating his workers, opposing the minimum wage and supporting automation in the workplace"
as well as conservatives who criticized Puzder's "employment of an undocumented immigrant as a housekeeper and his failure to pay taxes for her services."

No U.S. president in history has been castigated, condemned, insulted and degraded as much as Obama.

(3,832 posts)the South Carolina Republican who shouted you lie at President Barack Obama during a joint session of Congress in 2009? That seems extremely personal as well as disgusting.
