I believe him .

If Obama truly wanted to pay it forward as Bush did - Obama would've contacted Trump's team several months before the election.

Did that happen?

I bet not.

HuffPost is terrible. They gave Trump a 2% chance of winning the election.
No wonder HuffPost fans were so SAD when Trump won!

I look at HuffPost once in a while but it's so ridiculous that it's hard to read.

Not much fact, lot's of 'feelings' or 'opinions'

I'm amazed there are some who still post links to their nonsense as source for their arguments.

Top Obama Aide Recalls Tensions of 2008 Presidential Transition - Management - GovExec.com

This particularly stands out:

Quote:
The 2008 transition, Kumar said, “was the best in anyone’s memory, in part because 9/11 made everyone recognize that a transition is fragile time.” Its hallmark was that President George W. Bush worked with both Democratic candidate Barack Obama and Republican candidate John McCain beginning as early as the summer. Occasionally, “there were some harsh words from the Obama campaign about Bush, but people knew that was just part of the campaign,” Kumar said.

He signed 235 executive orders but when it comes to the budget he has no saying? Maybe he had too much Pootsa and lost his mind.. Either way he was a Soros puppet like Hilliary..

It's funny they keep saying Trump's America.
But Prince Obama is still President . It's almost as if they don't realize. I guess it's because Trump just looks and act very Presidential.
Many are plain ignorant and probably think Trump became President already and Obama is out. This really wouldn't surprise me.

A Gem from today. MY SKIN COLOR IS A DISEASEEEEE . Typical Hysterical HuffPost stuff.


"[Trump] gives people, especially the American patriarchy, a soap box to look down upon and attack marginalized communities."
LOL. American Patriarchy?? Seriously?..

I noticed you didn't attempt to reject the other two sources, the Daily Caller and Joe the Pumber.

Is dishonesty a habit with you?

BTW, being wrong about Trump's chances does not negate the credibility of anyone.

Remember when tRump was calling the election rigged? Sounds like he was wrong about his own chances.

It is? I keep hearing that tRump won because he represents the 'real' America.

tRump's America. I like it.

Huffpost is a comic book.


On Nov 9, their page was titled... "American's Suicide"...then "America's Mourning". They are a big joke.

It only takes one to prove the nonsense. Given your track record concerning Trump's chances of being President, I was being very generous in making any response.

But no matter. The sitting Vice President of the USA has said they will be leaving the WH in good hands. i.e. It's just another anti-Trump topic that has been proven 100% wrong.
