Obama's perpetual presidency
The guy just won't go away.
Can't he find a golf course to spend his unlimited time on?

While we're very happy to have you in the Gulch and appreciate your wanting to fully engage, some things in the Gulch (e.g. voting, links in comments) are a privilege, not a right. To get you up to speed as quickly as possible, we've provided two options for earning these privileges.
Everything about this former president was phony. His school records are still unavailable. He never held a real job outside of politics. He was as close to a "Manchurian" candidate as they come, winning his first office by the party willingly sabotaging an incumbent civil rights icon.
Obama continues to be a party tool, although a less effective one than the DNC might wish. The candidates he supported lost more than they won. He's a lousy extemporaneous speaker, unlike Bill Clinton. Hopefully the media will tire of him.
He was an efficient divider.
No, he did not do anything to improve the lives of blacks. The resident outrager Maxine Waters was quite POd at him for that.
For people in the US it may be difficult to know the difference.
You need real time experience to know what communism is and what it does to people.
Obama's blatant abuse and weaponizing government institutions are straight out of communist playbook.
Remember when he was first elected he even intended to encourage neighbors/friends to tell on people who were against him. Under communism this was a powerful weapon and cost a large contingent of innocents his livelihood or life.
Capitalism was when the government basically stays out of it. Fascism is when they allow for private property but control its use and operation through regulations and laws. Socialism is when the government actually owns the means of production and controls them. Not sure what communism really is- I thought everyone lived on communes kind of like feudalism, but I am not sure.
Weaponizing is also a different measure.
I never conflate the two.
He never left that stage of development.
But occasionally when I am not quick enough to switch channels, he is on the screen pontificating to a few hundred sheep who think as he does. He probably projects that to the entire country, hence his thinking that he is still president.
Costing dearly for the country to have them around.
Really, I'd just be happy if he moved to France. He and Macron are kindred spirits with their carbon taxes and overdeveloped superiority complexes.
France is about to go bankrupt so there will be no free stuff for Obama to live on.
Of course he is still getting his presidential stipend for a lifetime, so that should help.
The last think Macron needs now is an enforcing presence by Obama. The French are not receptive to their global looter ideas.
He would probably lecture the French as he has done with the Brits that they will have to "go to the end of the line" if they denounced globalism.
Obama is totally useless for anyone. He was selected by the powers to run for POTUS in the US and they made it happen.
It is to the credit of the country that Obama was unable to destroy it during his 8 years of rein.
France is not that strong and powerful.
I would simply say that Obama's idea of "help" IS to make things worse - for the common man. He's an elite who wants to go back to the feudal days because he paints himself as a lord.
Nah. That would be too much like his real presidency, only without the power to ruin everyone's lives and eat all their steak. (Nods to Napoleon Dynamite.)
Hey,
Mr, Trump.
You, uh--
--you--
--you didn't build that.
Dang, look what Obama’s is doing to the stock market!
:)
I'm saying they have a government protected "business" that prevents any real competition and they are looting snakes that steal from the very customers that they have a fiduciary responsibility to protect.
Well over half the people in America have stock market related accounts. Millions of ordinary people have shorted stocks by simply buying a specific type of index fund. Many millions more affect the stock market by simply buying and selling stocks or changing their allocation in some stock related fund. Are these people “looters?”
The "power of government" is directly affected
by the self interest and lack of ethics of those employed in agencies who are supposed to be watchdogs. The SEC is staffed by people with connections to Wall St and influenced by Wall St. Do your own research on how manipulation takes place. I have tried to explain but I have limited time.
