Obama: ‘Mr. Trump is not succeeding Me‘
Politico ^ | 4/08/16 | Nolan McCaskill

Posted on 04/08/2016 12:47:47 PM PDT by Mozilla

President Barack Obama in his most emphatic terms yet disputed the idea that Donald Trump will win this presidential election.

“I recognize that there is a deep obsession right now about Mr. Trump,” Obama told attendees of a Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee fundraiser Thursday evening in Santa Monica, California. “And one of you pulled me aside and squeezed me hard and said, ‘Tell me that Mr. Trump is not succeeding you.’ And I said, ‘Mr. Trump is not succeeding me.’”

Obama credited Trump and his primary rival, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, for exposing “some of the nonsense that we’ve been dealing with in Congress on a daily basis.”

“People act as if these folks are outliers. But they’re not,” Obama said, pointing to what Republicans in general say during interviews, on talk radio and in town halls. “They’re saying stuff that’s just as wacky as what we’re hearing out of the presidential candidates. It’s just nobody was paying attention.”

Obama, you dumb turd.
You, the MSM, and the GOPe invented candidate Trump!
Do you really think that Trump would bother running for
POTUS if you hadn’t pushed the US much farther to the
left than the masses were willing to go? A pox on all
of your houses!

Obama could declare martial law but if he did that all hell would break loose. But you never know what he is up too. He is attacking Trump as he starts to see how Trump can win the election.

Unfortunately, unless the economy heads south or we suffer a major terrorist attack, I believe Obama is right about his prediction.

If Trump said he wanted a million people in the streets around the white hut it would happen. Think he’ll draw a million in Cleveland?

He’ll have to live in the Presidential Suite of the Trump International DC until he can get the erm... renovations done.

Maybe, maybe not. You know the GOP would go along with it... in an effort to end the “hateful Trump rhetoric and begin the healing process” (in other words to preserve the status quo and protect their slice of the pie).

I pray to God that at the swearing in ceremony Trump looks over at Barky and says “you’re fired”. :-)

‘Tell me that Mr. Trump is not succeeding you.’ And I said, ‘Mr. Trump is not succeeding me.’

A true statement from Barack the First! The Usurper is not a legitimate occupant of our White House, while Donald Trump would be a real president of the United States - after eight terrible years, finally! In no way would Trump be succeeding that bigoted communist.

Obama will use Trump’s winning as an excuse to impose martial law and install himself as dictator.

Otherwise why make such a prediction?

Obama won’t allow it. He’ll declare Martial Law.
The thing to worry about is ballot stuffing, not martial law. The president is elected by the states, and by the people only at the discretion of the states. Mess with the voting, and the state legislatures just select Electors directly. Always assuming they dare to do it, which unfortunately is not a given.

“”some of the nonsense that we’ve been dealing with in Congress on a daily basis.””

I beg your pardon, Mr. Creepo - we do have a legislative branch of government and it’s your job to stick to the job you were hired (HRUMPH!) to do and let Congress do theirs. Maybe you should ask yourself WHY there are so many legislators and citizens OPPOSED to you!!!!!

I thought this chump was in IL...what’s he doing in CA? As if I didn’t know. Can’t stand the White House, huh?
