It's OK if HE does it, but a black man doing the same damn thing is getting "uppity" in his eyes.

..or maybe he's implying that Obama should have been mopping the floors at Harvard..rather than, you know, attending, as a student.. a little dog whistle comment for the racist base? ..maybe both? He just looks like a hypocrite and a fool, either way.

So they either make shit up or pretend they are not associated with anything they want to use against him.
