    For what exactly?

    Meanwhile in burgerland, Obama dropped an average of 60 bombs on north africa and the middle east every single day during his presidency. Have the US people held him to account, and have him face a war crimes tribunal for this atrocity against humanity?

      For what exactly?

      Anything. One example of Xi being held to account disproves the description of an unaccountable dictator.

      Obama dropped bombs

      “The president has, in this capacity, plenary power to launch, direct and supervise military operations, order or authorize the deployment of troops, unilaterally launch nuclear weapons, and form military policy with the Department of Defense and Homeland Security.”

      Yes, for these actions the president is accountable to no-one for 4 years.
