Please present your evidence that Obama is meeting with a foreign leader dumb enough to think that Obama is still president and/or is currently an official representative of the United States.

Thank you.

So:
  • Trump undermines himself without anything Obama.
  • Whatever aspersions, conspiracies, motives, insults you try to pin to Obama, it's obvious he is GENUINELY WAY better liked in the U.S. and most places abroad than the moron Trump.
  • Because Obama was a GENUINELY WAY better president and human being than the clueless Trumpian idiot could ever hope to be.
  • If Trump in any way had merit, he could stand on that and you could crow about it. But he doesn't.
  • Because Vladimir & company and America's stupidest & meanest arranged for Trump to be president in a compromised election, some foreign dignitaries will suck up to the egotistical gasbag now in residence to get him to purr like a pu$$y cat as they seek their own ends.
  • After Trump is out of office, only those who love stupid, inane, self-absorbed and conversationally at the third grade schoolyard level and who don't mind seeing their name in a mean tweet the next day, will want anything to do with Trump. That is if the terms of his parole allow him to travel. And after the Trump name comes down from most of its perches.
  • Trump's minions' jealousy of Obama reeks to high heaven. Understandable when you compare the two, but pathetic all the same. Keeps you from looking at what stupid Trump is doing. And what a smart president like Obama would be doing that Trump isn't.

Gee, doesn't that sound just like some of the stuff Mueller and team are investigating and that Trump and toadies were doing? Hmm, Russia, Turkey, Ukraine?

That's exactly what it sounds like.

Don Jr. and Kushner meeting with Russians about sanctions comes immediately to mind.

Sounds to me like you're making a case against the Trump campaign.

Which proves that Xi is smarter than Democrats. They could have gotten a lot of what they wanted with Trump in office, but of course party before country. They couldn’t contribute to making Trump seem successful.

So we should cast aside:
  • Care and concern for country
  • Good, reasoned judgment
  • Ethics and integrity
  • Common sense
  • Self-respect and decency

To contribute to making Trump SEEM successful??? Really?? Let him do that. Top down. Earn some cred. That's WHAT HE's there for. No "let's pretend" he's got redeeming value. No propping up a constantly volitional, abominable failure and all-around nasty being.
A no-integrity, sociopathic, pathologically lying, long-term con-artist with no concern for any except himself.
The leader who doesn't lead. The president who isn't presidential. The guy who can't/won't/ doesn't do anything right. The Cult panderer.
Because Putin and the minority of stupidest, lowest and meanest of U.S. voters, against the best interests of our country, installed him as our figurehead.

If Xi wants to be diplomatic with or even suck up to the crazy, egotistical, old gasbag while he's there--- to meet China's ends--- and then flip on whatever when he's gone. Xi's choice. That's on him.

Everyone has to do what's best for their own. For non-Trumpers, that's country, fellow citizens, kin and loved ones.

For Trumpers that appears to be Trump. Your choice to cast him as your idol. To stoke and stroke his insane, massive, insatiable ego. But to most, for all his money,your emperor has never had any clothes. And the moron constantly showing his ass and ALL his ugly parts aint a pretty sight.
