All this fuss about Obama earning speaking fees from others while Trump rakes in the dough at Mar-a-Lago from taxpayers.
So-called President is finding his new gig as Presidential bs & con artist to be a bit more challenging than his previous gig as Businessman bs & con artist. His plans to self-deal, self-serve & self-benefit as Presidential candidate & presumably as President go back almost 2 decades. Here he is in an interview in April 2000:
Quote:
...Trump had inked a deal with Tony Robbins, the frighteningly upbeat motivational speaker, by which Robbins would pay Trump $1 million to give ten speeches at his seminars around the country. Crucially, Trump had timed his political stops to coincide with Robbins' seminars, so that he was "making a lot of money" on those campaign stops. "It's very possible that I could be the first presidential candidate to run and make money on it, Trump said, adding that "there's no way a good businessman" would have blown the kind of money Steve Forbes had. I wondered whether Trump was proposing his own special version of campaign finance reform here. I also wondered where he was planning to come up with the $100 million he was promising to spend if nominated, considering that his cash flow seemed much more precarious than he claimed. ...
Uh, news flash, there Atalanta ! Barack Obama is no longer a PUBLIC SERVANT, he retired January 20th, 2017. He is now free to vacation, sleep in, visit old friends, and, yes, give speeches that pay well.
You probably didn't get the memo that he left office.
Oh Don you are so silly with the memo thing
Whatever he was a public servant, does that make sense now for you to understand?
He used his public servant status to take in obscene amounts of money.
And rape the tax payers.
Obama doesn't like America. He doesn't want America to be what it is.
His agenda has always been and continues to weaken America so certain people suffer.
Ya know the Trinity church him and his wife went to for YEARS listen to Rev Wright say " God damn America.
Obama is shady.
He has taken up a residency in Washington DC
I believe no other President did that once be left office.
This so called Media has a an that is not good for America

We have millions of public servants in this country who do, or will, receive pensions and healthcare after they retire. Should they be held to the same standards as Mr. Obama?

I've asked this question now three times and no one seems to want to answer. Wonder why?
Bravo, Mr. President! Make MORE money! The American people don't own you anymore, you served your country, and you have plenty to say so say it and reap the rewards!

LOL, you make accusations but you can't back up one of them,not a single one.Don't get mad at others becuase you are upset trump is stealing from you and the rest of America.Own it,Obama is gone take responsibility for your failure in electing a crooked man to President.
What is your view of the Trump administration in relation to Wall Street, Goldman Sachs and personal profiting of a president?
Why should it be different than yours concerning Obama? Why should what someone think about Trump define what you think about Obama?
Because Trump is corrupt, it's OK for Obama?
