Inconsistent, immoral, hypocritical, unseemly and gauche, yes. Illegal, no.


It is wonderful to see how torqued off your side gets that Obama still has the popularity he has always had. You guys thought he was going to just go away and not ever be seen again. SURPRISE !!

Just wait until Michele gets rolling again !

Please be quiet you are making yourself look foolish, BO has a right to earn a living just like anyone else.

What is the difference between Trump, Obama and Clinton? Hint: Trump is not like the others.

I don't care that much myself whether he or Michelle prostitute themselves on the rubber chicken circuit. Knock yourselves out, and all that.

But I know anybody paying $400K for a speech from Obama is getting ripped off. Period. Doesn't matter who's writing the check.

Show us any proof we said anything if and when Trump ever gave a $400K speech . First of all, you don't need to pay Trump ANY money for him to make a speech, he will gladly start giving one for free. He will talk to houseplants if they will listen, the man LOVES to hear himself speak.

Weird...who here freaks out when Reagan, or Bush give paid speeches?

Instead you folks talk about the current president-which as long as he is the CURRENT president I would have a problem with.

And the EXACT same people don't say a word when he funnels in hundreds of thousands via maralago.

In fact here is some data for people. Since 2009 George W bush has given more then 200 speeches, pocketing 100K-175K per appearance. No one on the Democratic side has really cared. Obama gives a speech, and everyone freaks out. Do you see the hypocrisy yet?
