Self-awareness isn’t easy. For many years FDR was vilified as “That Man” by US RWNJ types, who really should have been down on their knees every night giving thanks that the New Deal prevented a revolution in which they would have been the first up against the wall.
Obama reportedly told a group of Wall Street types that he was what stood between them and pitchforks and torches - I think this was when they were paying bonuses out of TARP funds - and of course they could only bitch about how MEAN he was.
