The White House conceded Tuesday that President Obama has lost two of his most important battles, surrendering on a massive free-trade deal and the Supreme Court nomination of Judge Merrick Garland.

Responding to President-elect Donald Trump’s vow to withdraw the U.S. from the Trans-Pacific Partnership on his first day in office, White House press secretary Josh Earnest acknowledged the chances of the pact being approved by Congress “are not very good.” He called it “a significant missed opportunity for the American people.”

BS! NEVER trust Obama. Never ever ever.

[jazusamo]

NEVER trust Obama

Bump!

[dead]

“Hey congress! Stop! Don’t go! We deciphered Obama’s white flag! It’s a cookbook!!”

[fwdude]

I can see an attempt at a recess appointment to the Supreme Court.

[SandRat]

From the WashTimrs? Sounds like another phony story.

[henkster]

No, I don’t trust 0bama, but this is proof of what a petulant little passive/aggressive pu$$y he has been all along. A strong man owns him like a prison bitch. Look at how he is constantly ridiculed and humiliated when he goes to deal with foreign leaders. He is reacting to Trump the same way; caving to their every whim.

This is really a sobering indictment of the GOP-e in Washington, that they caved in to the weak ruler who caved in to everyone else.

[House Atreides]

OK, US Senate...it’s OK TO RECESS NOW!

......NOT

[Yo-Yo]

“To Serve Trump”?

[rainee]

Hey Barry..we won

[Still Thinking]

Yeah, but I think recess appointments are temporary anyway, until a normal procedure, Senate-approved one can be made.

[b4its2late]

BS! NEVER trust Obama. Never ever ever.

Exactly.

[Ahithophel]

White flag? More probably a false flag.

[max americana]

You are thinking of the Wa Com POST. This is the Times. They are probably the only known right conservative national newspaper in circulation.

[Billthedrill]

Well, if Josh Earnest says so it must be true. He'd never lie to us, would he?

The disinformatzia is gushing today. Take three deep breaths and repeat: what greasy 0bama functionaries have to say about Trump is likely to be just a little inaccurate. Yes?

[ConservativeMind]

0bama has not fully surrendered:

Supreme Court opportunity for 0:

[SandRat]

Still don’t Trust them.

[jazusamo]

Josh only lies when his lips move.

[Vendome]

If it were such a great deal, like ObamaCare, which was unlawfully passed without any reading of it before passage and plenty of pay to play bribes, you would let us read it.

There is nothing that is good that can’t be tried in public.

oh well there’s still time to close Gitmo...
