resident Obama on Friday sharply criticized Republicans who say they approve of Russian President Vladimir Putin, with Obama saying that "Ronald Reagan would roll over in his grave" if he saw so many in the GOP expressing fondness for leaders in Moscow.
Speaking to reporters at his final press conference of 2016, Obama stopped just shy of explicitly blaming Putin for ordering Russian hacks of Democrats during the election campaign but left no doubt who's to blame.
"Not much happens in Russia without Vladimir Putin. Obama said. This is a pretty hierarchical operation. Last time I checked, there’s not a lot of debate and democratic deliberation, particularly when it comes to policies directed at the United States."
"The Russians can’t change us or significantly weaken us. They are a smaller country, they are a weaker country, their economy doesn’t produce anything that anyone wants to buy except oil and gas and arms. They don’t innovate. But they can impact us if we lose track of who we are. They can impact us if we abandon our values."
So Why is he acting like such a tough guy at the eleventh hour? We all know his testosterone levels are down there with dinosaur bones.
Last ditch effort to cause more division?
Why? Because, unlike your thin skinned, blowhard buddy, Obama thinks things through and makes decisions on facts and the most prudent means to accomplish something. Obama also has a vocabulary far exceeding the 4 to 5 letter range of Mr Bigly, and he has a grasp on how one action causes other reactions.
It is going to be very interesting to see Trump, with his 3rd grade education, try to juggle all the balls that he is going to have in the air at any given moment. Don't worry, we are going to be right here to critique his performance, just as you have with Obama.
I thought it was so ironic that Obama would say that as though Reagan would have approved 98 percent of what the Obama administration did from Obamacare to his illegitimate executive orders that had to be stopped by the Supreme Court. What a hypocrite.
Instead of you guys wasting your time discussing Obama, maybe you should devote some time toward Trump and his promises to you. When is the wall construction going to begin ? How about all those illegals who will be gone on day one ? Muslims..........haven't heard a lot about them lately. Is the swamp getting any lower ?
Seems like a lot of those "promises" have pretty much disappeared. It isn't like he doesn't have the time to devote to these issues, he certainly has time to tweet and go around on thank you tours.

Why don't you stop rambling and come to grips that Obama is still President, not Trump.
35 days until that loser is done. Thank God. I thank Obama for electing so many conservatives - his only meaningful accomplishment.
Yeah--thank god. Let's hope things immediately revert to the way they were when Bush left office. Crashing economy, job layoffs, home foreclosures, industries and banks failing.
Those were the good ole days.
