Trump’s outrageous tweets have drawn silence from the sometimes over-dignified former president. But Mr. Ex-President, your half of the country needs you.
President Barack Obama doesn’t have any official engagements on the horizon and hasn’t said much since returning from vacation, but we should still probably brace ourselves for another 6 a.m. tweetstorm this weekend from President Donald Trump accusing the former president of undermining his presidency. In less than a week, Trump has accused Obama of wiretapping his phone and releasing 122 Gitmo detainees, and he has given oxygen to the conspiracy theory of an Obama-empowered “deep state” or “shadow government” covertly working to destroy him. These claims are absurd, dangerous, and false. But as a liberal Obama backer, I also find them bizarrely welcoming.
Following Hillary Clinton’s defeat, most Democrats wondered about who would fill the void left by Obama. While Obama was vacationing in the Caribbean with Richard Branson, the Democratic Party frantically discussed strategies for addressing the Trump presidency, winning elections at the local, state, and national levels, and pinpointing the emerging leaders of the party.
While all of this is necessary, your average, run of the mill liberal quietly just wanted Obama to come back. Most would have voted for him a third time if possible, so the idea of him and Michelle living a quiet post-presidency life away from the media gaze simply did not make any sense. And now, thanks to Trump’s and the GOP’s “Obama OCD,” America will surely see the emergence of citizen-activist Obama sooner than we thought.
A battle is brewing between these two presidents. Trump and today’s GOP seem to struggle to function if they cannot pick a senseless fight with Obama....

To post the first words that came into my head would get me banned for life from just about everywhere.
Return fire? Yea, right. The best thing Obama can do is to keep his head down and not say a word. If he gets into a fire fight with Trump, not even his mommy Valery Jarret will be able to save him.
Dear Daily Weak Tit:
That’s FORMER President 0bama.
TYVM...
He’s not been silent at all. He’s been shooting his mouth off trying to undermine the Trump presidency.
Now he and Hillary are making robo calls urging people to engage in acts of sedition.

It would be AWESOME if the Muslim Seditionist declared his true intentions...
Don’t know who Mr. Pitner is but his paranoia ranks right up there with that of the extreme “Birthers” he would probably condemn, but at least the Birthers have raised some serious questions about the Obama Birth Certificate documents that have been made public (real, partially real, fakes, etc).
If all the intelligence on Democratic congresspersons who had contacts with the Communist Party USA, the Socialist Workers Party (Trotskyite), the Communist Workers Party (Maoist) and the Workers World Party (ex-Trot, now back to Stalinist/No. Korea), or WHO WERE TARGETTED BY THE KGB, OR WHO MET WITH CPUSA MEMBERS/KGB ASSETS, was released, we’d round out of bullets for the firing squads.
And this started at least as early as 1934 with Rep. Samuel Dickstein (D) who was a paid NKVD agent and criminal opportunist.
Look up “Ted Kennedy” on the database site www.keywiki.org and see the letter from FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover to the Nixon White House (possibly to John Dean, not sure who it was addressed to), and then read Paul Kengor’s book “Dupes” which details Kennedy’s illegal, treasonous relations with the KGB-dominated Soviet Govt in the early 1980’s.
If there are going to be any investigations of “Soviet” contacts, let’s start with 80+ years of Democrat Party politicians treasonous relationships.
This also includes connections/working relationships with Fidel Castro, Daniel Ortega (Nicaragua Sandinista leader), Hugo Chavez and Maduro, Venezuelan Marxists, Soviet president and KGB director Andropov, South African ANC/South Africa Communist Party leaders (Tambo, Makatini, etc.), the Marxist dictators of Guinea-Bissau, SWAPO, Angola, Mozambique, Bishop/Coard’s Grenada, Cheddi Jagan’s Guyana, Chile’s Allende and Red China, to name a few.
If you Dems want the “truth” be prepared to be destroyed for the party of treason that you are.
Sounds like somebody pinned on his little weiner on his little red diaper.
Obummer is busy hanging curtains in his new digs.
If one goes to the website for CPUSA, one will discover the communists do not even run candidates for office anymore, they just say openly to vote democrat. What needs to be investigated?
Obama has to be careful - he’ll be caught out in two shakes of a lamb’s tail and dig his hole even deeper.
Before the election Obama did sme direct return fire at Trump with his now infamous: “Atleast I’ll go down as...”.
Hussein knows to avoid making any public statements on the matter since he is in no position to quash any investigation into his wrongdoing...
Mr. Obama. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law...
