I quit paying attention to the garbage spewed from Obama's pie hole while he was campaigning for his first term.

Didn't you predict a Hillary landslide?

Don't confuse influence with seeking relevance.

Trump doesn't realize the election is over, he's busy traveling around unifying the country.

Its quite the opposite... Every political party has a weakness... nobody was intelligent enough to go after them... Trump has hired a team of very smart people with a singular focus... the extinction of the democratic party... you don't see it now but the gears are already moving... its inevitable... unstoppable... I am really surprised that its happening now cause nobody had the balls to do it... Trump does... he is not looking for a payout, he is not looking for power, he is not looking to make friends, he is looking to end you... and he has gathered people smart enough to do it... I am smart enough to realize what is taking place... its not so different in business, you seek to end your opponent.. the democrats made it personal, their mistake... tick tick tick tick

Obama will no doubt continue to scold and lecture people post presidency and because of his young age will unfortunately be able do so for many years to come. Unless he succumbs early on to lung cancer or heart disease from his bad habits.
Oh how terrible that would be, eh comrade?

People will be looking at President Obama and wishing for a return of the days when we had a dignified and intellectual man in the White House and an administration free of scandal. And that will probably start to happen before the end of January.

Yes the ignorance and delusion is thick in the Obama camp , much like the folks who pine for Mao and Stalin et al.
Propaganda works.

-The total ceding of the world to Islmacists, Russia and China. (Wow, 4000,000 dead in Syria! good job "leading from behind" or whatever!).

-The over regulation of Dodd-Frank, which will also probably be repealled or modified.

-The strengthening of unilateral action through executive orders, which is only going to help Trump now (we warned him too!).


2) He wove the narrative of a new, inassailable Democratic coalition based on changing demographics, and his legacy is:

- His succesor could not grab the brass ring and was defeated by (another) political novice.
- The Senate remains Republican and will do so for at least another four years
-The House Remains Republican and will probably be so for at least another 6-8 years
- There will not be a liberal Supreme Court in my lifetime
- 66 of 99 State legislatures are Repubican
- 33 of 50 governorships are Republican.


3) He bragged about the ecomony, but his legacy of enemic growth and bogus employment numbers has caused:

-The rise of the populist right in Donald Trump
- The rise of the Socialist left in Bernie Sanders


Why doesn't he just shut up? We don't need to hear him cry about everyone and everything else when he has the lion's share of the blame. If he's mad about Russia, then he whould have listened when Mitt Romney told him they were a threat. If he's mad about news agencies, then he should have done something to curtail the blatant cheerleading that culminated in Donna Brazil trying to rig a debate for Hillary.

Obama blew it, and no longer has the right to ***** about ANYTHING.

Discuss.

Why should he shut his pie hole? He is intelligent enough to know, it is best to remain silent and let everyone think he is a fool. Than to open his mouth again and remove all doubt.
He can dig a hole with the best of them.

So cocky and sure that Trump would never be president.
Obama talks just like an elitist. His smug attitude never could understand the black experience. He never had one. He was a very political guy who used his blackness to advance himself only.
