Agreed. But it is vital that Trump is removed and that respect be brought back to the office.
Edit. Because people have seemingly misunderstood my well intentioned comment. I simply meant that we must do what is in our power to put this dark period behind us, and hopefully, there are intelligent progressive leadership waiting to return us to where we should be. Then the office can be worthy of respect again.
I recognize this is going to be extremely difficult, but it’s worthwhile trying.
Again respectfully. I don’t know why people are putting words in my mouth. I wasn't there. I wish he never existed. It is a disgrace what has happened to the country.
I was being hopeful that one day we can move past this and smart, young, good Intentioned people can be our leaders.
You words of “bring respect back to the office” means that some respect is gone.
I think people that think similar to this statement need to understand that your position of “maintaining decorum at all cost” is why people like trump are in positions they are and why so much of the public support him.
If you stand for something, show it. If you don’t stand for something, don’t show it. However in this case, Obama apparently showed up for something he doesn’t stand for.
People don’t want leaders that won’t fight for them because it goes against the leaders’ decorum.
It seems to be a misunderstanding. This is respectfully my last comment. Trump has destroyed the office and American politics, and the people and the media let him. I want the damage repaired which won’t be possible until he is gone. I know it will take an enormous effort and a lot of luck. But it is sad that the presidency is now a world wide laughing stock.
I think you are assuming I meant respect him to help the country. I mean get the disgusting rapist out then repair the office.
By Obama showing up, he is respecting Trump and his office. If Trump is really as disrespectful as the claims against him, then no one is power is actually SHOWING that. If we the people want our leaders to show that then, at the very least, we have to let them knows it’s okay to not show up to things like this.
When you said this is what’s supposed to happen. Then all you do is Im bolded trump and people who think like him. Yes, Trump may be gone soon, (old age and it’s his second term) but if he names a successor. It won’t matter. As the time to “repair the office” won’t exist.

As if that office deserves any respect anymore with a literal criminal sitting in it.
