Funny thing is that he wasn't just single term POTUS, he was elected TWICE (Do Nothing?)

He protected the retirement assets of millions of Americans who depended upon the failing banking industry with their retirement savings (Do Nothing).

He worked on millions of Americans' health insurance with the Health Care Reform Act (Do Nothing?).

He prevented a depression and reversed job losses that were hundreds of thousands every month (Do nothing?).

Admit it.
You really don't know what you're talking about, do you?
He was very busy. In between golf outings, he presided over the largest wealth transfer from the middle class to the top 1% in our history. Don't worry. The $153 million that the Clintons received from the Billionaire Class is a pittance compared to what this Stooge for Wall Street will receive. The best con artists are the ones who hide their con the best.

Was the advice creditable or not? You and Trump need to learn to address the issue, not the speaker.

Research the 'tu quoque' and 'ad hominem' fallacies.

Obama's advice was one big ad hominem layered with a ton of chutzpah coming from one of the great con man of our times. This guy redefined Ponzi as he grabbed money from working families and stuffed it in the vaults of his Billionaire Class Masters. Bernie is quite literally running against all that this guy did to crush the middle class along with his Republican and Democratic Stooges in the Congress.

There are quite a few threads in which people take issue with President Obama playing golf. I decided to stick this in here, since it concerns both President Obama playing golf, and Mr. Trump. Note that the link is from Breibart, which is part of the Conservative Canon, seemingly:




Donald Trump Says 'Let Golf Be Elitist'




Now, I don't care about Donald John Trump saying that people should 'aspire' to become wealthy enough to play golf at one of his golf courses. There are plenty of municipal courses for the less fortunate to play on. I give him kudos for making sure that his golf courses do not ban minorities (as many private country clubs do).


However, I do think that it is a distinct possibility, should Mr. Trump become President, that he will play golf; a lot of golf; a lot of golf at his own golf courses. Indeed, he may well pick his VP based on his or her handicap. Probably cabinet members and Justices, too.


My prediction: Mr. Trump shall play golf while President.

Uneven week number. It's on even week numbers that Obama is an iron-fisted dictator changing our life forever and taking our gunz.
