It’s quite striking how many of Trump’s policies are simply “the opposite of what Obama did.” Why is he tweeting about the Iran protests?

No grand plan, or principled strategy — just not what Obama did. President No-bama has been one of the most accurate predictors for an otherwise unpredictable president. (And of course, the idea that Obama was “silent” during the 2009 Iran protests is itself an old conservative talking point that was debunked as far back as 2012.)
