Obama? I've got nothing to add to what I've said these last eight years. But I'll reprise one of my favorite details from his largely fictitious biography, from page 141 of The [Un]documented Mark Steyn:
Courtesy of David Maraniss' new book, we now know that yet another key prop of Barack Obama's identity is false: His Kenyan grandfather was not brutally tortured or even non-brutally detained by his British colonial masters. The composite gram'pa joins an ever-swelling cast of characters from Barack's "memoir" who, to put it discreetly, differ somewhat in reality from their bit parts in the grand Obama narrative. The best friend at school portrayed in Obama's autobiography as "a symbol of young blackness" was, in fact, half Japanese, and not a close friend. The white girlfriend he took to an off-Broadway play that prompted an angry post-show exchange about race never saw the play, dated Obama in an entirely different time zone, and had no such world-historically significant conversation with him. His Indonesian step-grandfather, supposedly killed by Dutch soldiers during his people's valiant struggle against colonialism, met his actual demise when he "fell off a chair at his home while trying to hang drapes."
But ask not for whom the drapes hang, they hang for thee: today it's curtains for Barack Obama, and curtain up for Donald Trump.

I’ve been up for over an hour now here in Alaska, its just after 2am. Still overwhelmed by the concert last night!
I hope somebody has its entirety on cd or download.

It's fitting. Drape hanging goes with drape removal - after all, the mooch has to be clothed.

If Donald Trump can accomplish one tenth of his potential he will tower over Obama like a Sequoia growing where once stood a Toadstool.

I would love it if Steyn was the one to write the definitive biography of Obama/Soetoro/Soebarkah.

Mark Steyn wrote this today because he knows things about Barack Hussein Obama that they won't let him say.
So it's the next best thing, exposing the lies about the biodad, girlfriend, best friend, stepfather, et al.
All the rest, which we here at FR have been talking about for over eight years, is true also, at least 99 percent true.
(I say the jury's still out on Michelle being a transsexual and the kids being borrowed, which frankly I'd be willing to hear out except... Today's the day, goodbye. Enjoy the ceremony, you muslim faker.)
