No its because he didn’t follow through on any of his promises and caused many to lose faith in politics even more.

You are blaming Obama for Republican’s loudly announced policy of obstructing literally everything Obama tried to do including voting against their own Republican bills if Obama agreed.
Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 12 hours ago
Yes, it’s always the obstructions of the Republicans that stopped prior Democratic presidents, always powerless and always someone else to blame for their failings.
Meanwhile Trump does whatever the fuck he wants

Obama didn’t help make Trump happen because of his skin color or any conspiracy.
Obama helped by promising desperately needed “hope and change” and then dissolving his more deeply left grass roots organizations who helped get him elected.
Obama helped Biden coalesce the neoliberal wagons around his campaign to win at a critical moment during the 2020 presidential primary.
Obama was more concerned with appearing noble in his politics than using power to fully address peoples’ material needs and thereby more effectively inoculating said desperate people from demagoguery offering scapegoats to blame at those needs being unmet.
