WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama called for a smooth handover of control of the U.S. military to incoming commander in chief Donald Trump, as the outgoing president met Wednesday with military leaders for the last time.

"We've got to make sure that during this transition period that there is a seamless passing of the baton, that there's continuity," Obama said. He said it was critical to ensure that "we are doing everything we can to make sure that the next president will benefit from the same kinds of outstanding advice and service that these people around the table have provided me."

So what is this scumbag planning? Something long lasting and progressive to stab America in the back and destroy the moral even more. I don’t think he would start a war because that would diminish the glory he sees in himself. But I certainly think he would sabotage something in the near future to start a war on Trump’s watch. I think most likely it will be something like...

Firing all general staff and promote transgendered replacements to all top leadership ranks?

Go full homo and transgendered for all branches and all special forces. Special requirements will be given to any person who fails the physical requirements.

Christian the USS Barack Obama.

Promote himself to Commander of the Armies.

Place a bronze sculpture of himself on top of the “Tomb of the Unknowns” at Arlington.

What ever he plans it’s going to be something to humiliate America one last time.

He is frantically trying to weld in his social engineering programs to make them unremovable.

He is still working on the WWWIII thing. I am waiting for a USA air assault, maybe including paratroopers, on the Russian bases in Syria. It will be hard what with all the carriers out of the area but it doesn’t have to be a successful attack. Half a dozen planes with bombs and a couple of cruise missiles along with all the damage he can do with drones should do the trick. Putin would have to respond militarily. I wonder how that would affect his tacit deal with Trump.

All I can think is:

The sooner Trump is inaugurated the better.

Reminds me of the Chris Rock on people wanting credit for things their supposed to do.

“I take care of my kids”

CR: “You’re supposed to you low expectation havin’ MF’r.”

Cracks me up.

To your point though, why wouldn’t their be a seamless transition, what is the point of stating it?

We all know how that smooth transition of power thing went.

The inference is obvious, as it is with everything he says publicly. He has always been a duplicitous LIAR who says one thing and does the exact opposite.

Translated: the inference is that it WILL NOT be a smooth transition for Trump if Obama has anything to do with it.

The third tweet down pretty much says it all:

Point is, if scumbag Obama says he want something that appears to help the incoming administration, it is an utter lie. Every time.

It's not.

A normal guy would't be caught anywhere near an Obama circle ***k.

So that explains it.

The Military loves a real leader - it already considers Trump to be the CINC....
