I never liked that either, but I can think of another hairstyle I find even more offensive. I'd even bet you can guess which one!

One of the reasons there are some DUers who are sour on Obama. Ah well. Nobody’s perfect, I guess. 🤷‍♂️

He knows all the stuff said about him and he does his thing anyway, but not like Trump. And he's not an idiot.

Even tho I would like a miracle to happen and we wind up with Michelle Obama as our POTUS, I think Gavin would, as POTUS, be a sane, judicious, and wise leader. He knows what he doesn't know and would act accordingly.
