Obama: Trump's un-American, inhuman
Politico ^ | 11-4-16 | Edward-Isaac Dovere

FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. — Donald Trump is more than un-American, President Barack Obama charged here Friday: He’s almost inhuman.

That’s not all: Trump’s running a racist campaign that black voters especially need to reject, Obama said.

“Don’t choose fear. Choose hope,” Obama said, offering his closing argument for the final days of the campaign that’s a summoning of his own 2008 campaign and a rejection of Trump. “Don’t choose fear. Choose hope.”

And Trump would only get worse if he made it to the Oval Office, Obama warned here in this state that Hillary Clinton’s campaign is hoping will go back blue in her battle to get to 270 electoral votes.

“If you disrespect women before you were in office, then you will disrespect them once you’re in office. If you accept the support of Klan sympathizers, if you don’t denounce them right away because you’re not sure, then that’s what you’re going to do in office,” Obama said. Same goes for not paying attention to the Constitution to the campaign: “not only will you disrespect when you’re president, but you actually may be willing to violate it when you’re in office.”

The case against Trump, Obama said is “not a Democrat or Republican — that’s not American.”

He added a few minutes later, “We’re not Democrats or Republicans first. We’re children of God first. We’re human beings first.”

Be disgusted by Trump, Obama told them, pulling out a little targeted pop culture.

“We can’t have a president who everyday seems to violate those basic values. The problem is that he’s done it so much that it’s become almost normal,” he said. “It’s like suddenly reality TV has entered into the race for the presidency. It’s not even ‘Survivor’ or ‘The Bachelorette,’ it’s like some ‘Love & Hip Hop’ stuff.”

The crowd at Fayetteville State University gymnasium was heavily African-American — before he arrived, Democratic Senate candidate Deborah Ross drew cheers for pointing out that her opponent, Sen. Richard Burr, had specifically opposed two black judges from being confirmed — and Obama spoke directly to them.

Trump says he’s going to send poll watchers to monitor activity in “certain areas,” Obama said, explaining slyly, “I don’t know what certain areas he’s talking about, but you do.”

The Clinton campaign is on alert about lagging African-American turnout, and Obama said that in a state with a history of Jim Crow and more recent battles over voting rights restrictions, there is a special responsibility to show up at the polls and speak out.

Think about the 100-year old North Carolina woman who’d been kicked off the voter rolls, he said, and recounted her fight to get herself reinstated in a letter that the president read to the crowd.

“It’s bad enough she was disrespected. Are we now also going to respect her because we’re not voting?” Obama said.

Obama singled out a Trump supporter who stood up to start waving a sign toward the beginning of his speech, urging the crowd to see the man as the kind of distraction that’s weighed down the campaign all along, unsuccessfully trying to quiet an enthusiastic crowd that started chanting “Hillary!”

“If you just focus, if you just think about it, the choice could not be simpler, the choice could not be clearer. There is a reason that so many Republicans, so many conservatives, have denounced the nominee of their party,” Obama said. “You’ve never seen a situation in which folks are denouncing the person who’s nominated as the leader of their party. And it’s because Donald Trump is uniquely unqualified.”

Earlier, speaking to the overflow crowd outside the gym, Obama recalled that he only won North Carolina in 2008 by about 2 votes per precinct. Everyone there needs to vote, he said, and every one of them needs to “nag the heck” out of everyone else they know to vote too.

Monday night, Clinton will end her campaign stumping with a rally in Philadelphia framed by the president and first lady Michelle Obama, leaving no question at all of how much the campaign is leaning on the Obamas to propel her into office, particularly among African-Americans. Obama laid into that sense here, talking about how much the support of North Carolina has meant to him and the first lady over the years, and to their daughters Malia and Sasha as well.

“If you deliver North Carolina for me,” Obama said, “that is the best send-off you can give me and Michelle.”

The crowd cheered. Obama took it in.

“It’s not that often where you have the chance to move history,” he said. “This is one of those moments. Right now you can reject mean spirited politics that would take us back. Right now you can elect a leader who spent her entire life trying to move this country forward. Our first female president. You have a chance to move history.”

Obama: Trump's un-American, inhuman

Interpretation: Obama's un-American, inhuman.

(Just reverse everything they say and then it makes perfect sense).

Everything about this is choreographed and orchestrated in an attempt to get Trump to lash out at the president. If Trump said Obama was un American it would be all over the news until the election. He better stay on message.

Harry Truman is said to have described a prominent Republican with “the son-of-a-bitch is no good!”

The President can be as easily described. I hate the mother-f#####. He is slime - the worst person ever to occupy his office.

Obviously they are losing big time. Otherwise they would never go scorched earth like this.

The race baiter in chief is trying to goad Trump into a war of words.

What a supreme egotist.

Air Force One will take this long-legged smackdaddy back home, to Chicago...but he”ll have to pay his own way back to Kenya.

He's staying in DC, where the money is.

Nice catch, Pocono. ....and let's include these gems.

US TREASURY A SLUSH FUND FOR THE OBAMAS---Mrs O got $100 million tax dollars from the State Dept's Millennium Challenge Corporation on her visit to Morocco, targeted to "teach Muslim girls". The 100 million tax dollars are to be (cough) administered by the post-presidency tax-exempt Obama Foundation.

LOOK AT THAT SMILE Michele, her daughters and her mother in
Morocco's palace. 100 million dollars to spend when she and Mr O
get back to Chicago would put a smile on anybody's face.

=========================================

AND THAT'S NOT ALL--God only knows how much they've looted from the US Treasury. Americans demand to see Valerie's wire-transfer, Fed-Ex receipts, emails and snail mails....especially the ones going offshore.

The post-prez Obama's got big plans---to get-rich-quick ala the Clintons----and have two foundations (that we know of). One Obama foundation just got a quick infusion of 100 million tax dollars via Michele's Morocco trip.

==============================================

ITEM---A chunk of the billions to Iran will end up at the Obama Foundation Course, if the Royal Idiot trusts the Iranians, he's a bigger airhead than we thought.

ITEM---US TAXPAYERS PAY NOW---the Obamas collect later.

Obama's federal outlays (that we know of).:

<><> $150 billion to Muslim Iran in the nuclear deal,

<><> $2 billion funding to his bro Malik's organization---the Muslim Brotherhood,

<><> $50 million to Malik/Barack's tax-exempt foundation in the form of a grant to Kenya (his homeland).

<><> While the Muslim Brotherhood was in charge in Egypt, Obama (and Hillary) showered them w/ praise.....and billions of US dollars in aid, arms, tanks and planes.

<><> Obama gave $90 million US tax dollars to wealthy oil-rich Muslim African Muslim countries.

<><> Obama's homeland--Kenya--is now listed as the biggest recipient of US foreign aid.

<><> there are billions missing from the Obamacare scam.

<><> 6 billion is missing rom the State Dept contractor fund

<><> Before Morocco, Obama sent Michele to oil-rich Muslim Quatar w/ $73 million US tax dollars to "teach Muslim girls."

Remember the picture when W & Cheney were giving their goodbyes? That look that Cheney threw out was outstanding.

Yes. I have that saved but my photobucket account is a mess so I stopped using/downloading. Maybe Cheney can sit in the front row! Nice memories. Payback is a B--- and all.

<><> Total US Foreign Aid to Kenya (FY 2012): $749,236,440

<><> Kenya listed as one of the Top Ten Recipients of US Foreign Aid

“I’d probably rate a visit from the Secret Service.”

Highly unlikely. The secret service is now nothing more than another gang of mercenaries infesting DC. All it wants is money, money, money and retirement benefits. If a madman with an ax charged out of a crowd, the SS would scatter and look for a hole to hide in.

Qaddhafi found out the hard way that you can’t trust a pretorian guard in the game for only money.

“”Same goes for not paying attention to the Constitution to the campaign: “not only will you disrespect when you’re president, but you actually may be willing to violate it when you’re in office.””

Don’t see much difference, obozo. Does he have any idea of what he’s reading off the teleprompter? Disrespect/Violate. Must be a difference somewhere but I fail to see it...
