Obama retools his political operation for post-Trump
Pollutico ^ | 1/9/2017 | EDWARD-ISAAC DOVERE

And Obama has identified a few issues that would draw him out directly: a Muslim ban, though he still considers the chances of that remote, or moves that would cut back on the protections he put in place for the children, known as “dreamers,” who were brought to the country illegally as minors and who’ve been living here since.

“If he deports thousands of kids,” Obama has said several times in private meetings of late, according to people present, “I don’t know that I can sit on the sidelines.”

Also potentially on the list: a move by Trump to unravel the Iran deal or the Paris climate accord, or the shape of an Obamacare repeal and replacement.

“If things rise to the level where it’s a statement of who we are as a people and as a country, things that are important to him, then depending on the circumstances he will engage and he will talk,” said one of the people familiar with thinking about the post-presidency.

Former Presidents retain ZERO authority.

Go play at the united nations so we will have justification to shut that atrocity down next.

It sounds like Bammie is going to try to continue his destruction of America from outside the government. He should have been impeached. He won’t be happy until he brings down whitey.

He will only serve to continue the destruction of The Left.

I hope he is highly energetic and visible.

This will end up helping us.

As long as i can remember presidents, to the early 60’s i have NEVER heard of a president after term being of any consequence or political movements. Not even Bill Clinton. Not Reagan, neither Bushes, not Johnson, Carter, Nixon, nope. Sure they get publicity but never have they formed any political groups opposing the POTUS.

“I don’t know that I can sit on the sidelines.”

This community organizer will never sit on the sidelines, he will stick his nose into Americas business over and over.

He’s totally irrelevant on the political scene now and in his insanity, it’s driving him to say and do stupid things...typical liberal.
He needs to “re-tool” for what size prison stripes he’ll be wearing.
I know, probably never happen, but one can dream.
This POS either needs to be in gitmo, or deported.

After 1/20/17 you are simply 1 of roughly 320 million and you are entitled to exactly one vote.

Obama never had any authority to legalize any illegal aliens.
Rescinding his illegal executive orders has to be done to restore the rule of law.
Deporting the criminals is an obvious first step, but we should not wait until illegal aliens commit other crimes before deporting them.
Any contact with any law enforcement agency should result in detention and deportation for any illegal alien.

Gonna be a traumatic experience for him when he realizes he is on the sidelines and can make noise but not change how the coach runs the game....he's gonna be a bleachers idiot who wants to do violence because his defunct team lost and can't even see another win in sight.

The Creep can’t compete with the Trump TWEET:-)

Even the Navy has found their balz again knowing that the Creep is persona non grata in America now:-)

The only way he will be able to get his message across to Americans is with the help of Russian hacking:-)
