Barky Gives the President-Elect His Valuable Advice

Before grabbing the Moose, moms Robinson and the kids to fly away for their final lavish taxpayer funded vacation as first family, Barky took time off from trying to delegitimize Trump's presidency to sit down for an interview with National Public Radio. He touched on a lot of subjects like Russian hacking and “fake news” but those complaints are old news. His biggest new revelation is that he doesn't want Trump running the country the same way he did. If there were an award for lack of self-awareness, not only would Obama win it this year, he'd be inducted into the hall of fame.

Mr. "Pen and Phone" actually warned President-elect Donald Trump to not overuse his power by issuing too many executive orders. For those of you trying to block the memory of the past 8 years, Obama ran most of his presidency bypassing Congress and legislating from the White House with executive action.

"Keep in mind, though, that my strong preference has always been to legislate when I can get legislation done. In my first two years, I wasn't relying on executive powers, because I had big majorities in the Congress and we were able to get bills done, get bills passed. And even after we lost the majorities in Congress, I bent over backwards consistently to try to find compromise and a legislative solution to some of the big problems that we've got — a classic example being immigration reform, where I held off for years in taking some of the executive actions that I ultimately took in pursuit of a bipartisan solution — one that, by the way, did pass through the Senate on a bipartisan basis with our help."

Mr President Trump,
your response:

Thanks for the advice, One of my first Orders will be for the Secret Service to have at all times DRUG SNIFFING DOGS on location for Every Last Person they are charged with Protecting, they will be authorized to ARREST all Violators also.
Put that in your crack pipe Barry!!

Reminds me of this one:

CEO of a troubled company was relieved of his duties at the Board of Directors meeting. When he returned to his office to collect his personal belongings, his replacement was bringing in his first boxload. Not wanting it to be an uncomfortable moment, the former CEO spoke.

“I have nothing against you. This has been a terrible period in my life, and I only wish you the best,” he said. “Before I go, let me give you three envelopes. If things start to become really tough, open the first one. After that, you will be fine for awhile, then when it gets tougher, open the second...”

The new CEO thanked his predecessor, finished moving in and began to organize himself. A few months went by, he had made no progress, and was called into a meeting with the Board of Directors. He decided it was time to open the first envelope.

Written on a piece of paper was the advice, “Blame conditions on your predecessor.” The man went to the meeting, took the advice, and the Board seemed pacified. He promised in short time he would undo the damage from before.

A few more months went by with still no progress, and the CEO was faced with yet another grilling by the Board. He opened the second envelope. The message said, “Tell them you are in the middle of a reorganization.” This he did and was granted some more time.

It soon became evident that whatever he tried, the CEO could not make any progress. He was faced with one more meeting before the Board and he had no clues. He took the third envelope out of his desk drawer, tore it open and read the instructions: “Prepare three envelopes.”
