And what principal is that? Because they made a contract with Obama? Obama made almost $16 million on his two best selling books. Should Trump supporters boycott the publisher because they dared to print them? By all means. The outrage is comical but by all means, keep that eleven dollars.

First he has to get the money to give to hand out. What he already has is his. Sounds like a Methodist.

If they were to do this, it would be a publicity stunt, and nothing more. I'm sure there would be people singing their praises, but honestly it wouldn't change a thing. I know that, you know that, and they know that.

Very strange lot, you all are.

Not strange, just better-informed and more aware than the ignorant and gullible masses (and the people who patronize and lie to them) believe.

And I'm sure they really really really don't care. Obama made almost $16 million on two books he wrote before he took office.

Trump supporters tend to be older and spend their days worshipping Fox News, they are not even on Netflix' radar.

I really don't believe a word out of their mouths. And yes, they are rich beyond comprehension. Regardless of what a tax statement says...they've got more.

But hey, thanks Obama, it's the least you could do since you've wrecked our country.
