EDGARTOWN, Mass. (AP) — Golf, afternoons at the beach and ... political campaigning?

President Barack Obama is interrupting what so far has been a leisurely vacation to help raise money for Hillary Clinton, the Democratic presidential nominee. Obama has said there's never been anyone more qualified than Clinton, who was his rival in the 2008 presidential contest and his first-term secretary of state, to be president.

We been through this. Ford pardoned Nixon who was never charged with anything.

Nixon was pardoned by Ford. The charges don’t matter. Look it up. The pardon assumes the acts were called committed. Just like Hillarys pardon would be

Yep. There is no other interpretation for this.

In fact, EVERY piece of non-polling data we have says Trump is kicking the crap out of her.

I did - Here’s the text.

Now, THEREFORE, I, GERALD R. FORD, President of the United States, pursuant to the pardon power conferred upon me by Article II, Section 2, of the Constitution, have granted and by these presents do grant a full, free, and absolute pardon unto Richard Nixon for all offenses against the United States which he, Richard Nixon, has committed or may have committed or taken part in during the period from January 20, 1969 through August 9, 1974.

See where it says “may have committed?”

Thanks for playing.

If she were ahead like polls indicate, this would not be necessary.

Exactly what I was thinking...

An incisive observation, with which I wholeheartedly concur.

The Media and Establishment (but I repeat myself), who have gone all-in for Hillary, betray their increasing desperation with each passing day.

It will be very satisfying as their flimsy house of cards collapses for the entire nation to see...

Vote Trump!

For him to miss golf and vacation speaks volumes as to the electability of the queen.

I'm not worried about the polls.

I'm worried about Democrat Voter Fraud!

Big deal. He put a Hillary bumper sticker on the back of his golf cart. So what?

[Obama interrupting vacation to campaign for Clinton]

He must have just watched Trumps’ speech.

It was such a damning speech against both of them that I’m sure he will direct his media, including Faux Netwok, to insinuate he doesn’t even write his own speeches just to discredit him.

They use that old trick all the time with Conservatives.

Hope Obama campaigning for Hillary works out as well for Trump as it did for Brexit!

Thank you. You confirmed what I said. No charges no indictment yet a pardon was issued. Thanks for playing.

We’re supposed to believe all the polls saying Hillary is “surging”, and yet Obama is taking time from his vacation to try and help prop her campaign up???
