It has nothing to do with comparing Trump to Obama, and everything to do with the utter rejection of Obama's FUNDAMENTAL TRANSFORMATION which is code words for Communism. We are a great country we didn't need to be "TRANSFORMED". That is saying we reject all American values, and that they are wrong even though they make so many people want to come here to prosper. Obama hates freedom, and liberty because it means government can't control you. Remember Obama's "Only Government" speech, and "YOU DIDN'T BUILD THAT!!!"

Ridiculous that you libs fell for that crap.

What law, exactly, is being violated? Please cite it, so the rest of us can take a look and see for ourselves. Thank you.

Nothing you have said in this thread has been supported by facts. The world doesn't like trump. They gave him a warm welcome in China because they knew it'd make him more likely to bend over for them. They're right, I would've done the same thing if I were them.
Does eating at a Chinese restaurant give you this valuable incite to Chinese thought ?

Just because someone has something forced into them doesn't mean they are accomplished at forcing it into others. The teacher and the student, post and the post hole, are not the same. When you give President Trump a warn welcome make sure the cameras are rolling. Proof will be required.

My IQ seems to drop a few points listening to him it's honestly painful to be sure. And here I thought G.W Jr was bad.

I didn't fall for anything I didn't vote for Obama but I liked him better then the con man/ public embarrassment we have in office now. Just as those who fell for Obama's "Change" those who voted for Trump fell for his "lets make American great again" crap. The only greatness trump cares about is those who are rich like he is. He wants to make them great again you and me, not so much.

This is not new. Obama has been meeting with foreign leaders all year.

Alt-right crazies are simply hyping it and attempting to deflect from Trump's poor leadership, ignorant blunders and the Mueller investigation--with Flynn up next and Jared warming upon warm-up.

He's met with Merkel, South Korean leaders and probably spoken with many others on the phone to reassure them that the ignorant buffoon in chief jackass will probably not blow up the world. Or maybe just to sympathize with them.

Lol. Maybe he's trolling Trump. Can't wait to see the tweets from the insecure and fragile Trump. He's hilarious when he feels inferior and threatened.

I'm betting Obama and whoever he's meeting with are having a good laugh over drinks about what an idiot Trump is. He'll be tweeting over this soon enough.

Maybe the better question is: why do they want to meet with him?

Who knows?

Obama is hardly the first ex-president to travel internationally and meet with foreign leaders.

Off the top of my head, that list includes Ronald Reagan, Jimmy Carter, George W. Bush, and Bill Clinton.

I find the former president following the new president around the globe embarrassing for Obama and imagine Obama would have been irritated if GWB had done the same to him during his first term..
Shrug. GWB visited Africa during Obama's presidency. I can't recall anyone blinking an eye over it.

The countries that have hosted Trumps visits have given him royal receptions that were not given to Obama when he was President. So much for your second comment.
Again, please cite the law you are referring to. Thank you.

Um, OK.

Now, please present your evidence that Obama is meeting with foreign leaders for the purpose of overthrowing the US government. Thank you.

(Note, your darkest suspicions do not count. Those suspicions are only evidence of how your mind works, not how Obama's mind works.)
