For some unknown reason Barack Obama met with South Koreas new leader almost immediately after he returned from a meeting with President Trump. The Korea Herald reports:
President Moon Jae-in renewed his resolve to pursue sanctions and dialogue to tackle North Koreas nuclear program during a meeting with former US President Barack Obama on Monday, saying now is the last chance for the regime to return to the negotiating table.
During the 40-minute talk, Moon shared the results of his recent summit with his incumbent US counterpart Donald Trump, asking for Obamas advice on ways to advance the relationship.
This could be construed as a violation of the Logan Act as defined by Cornell Law School:
Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, with intent to influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government or of any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.

Do you recall predicting that Obama would use his post-presidential time getting rich? And I said sure, he’d grab easy money whenever convenient, but his focus would be on sabotaging Trump.
Well you were wrong and I was right. This deranged teen-in-an-adult-body is doing everything he can to undermine Trump. There’s never been an EX-POTUS who acted like this. It’s at mental-illness levels now. Obama is going around the bend.
Face it. For eight years you backed a mental basket case. The difference was that in the WH Obama had enough handlers to make him look sane. Now he’s in charge...and every day he looks more like the narcissistic nutjob headcase that he is.
Dems been doing this kind of treason for a long time. No Repubs have the backbone to kick back.
Bttt.

Leni/MinuteGal has been pointing this out in numerous posts over the past week or so! Good on ya, Leni!
I agree. There is a whole lot of stuff that needs to be revealed about Dorkbama.
He comes and goes as he pleases. He has a mansion in DC. He acts as though he were still President.
I think you’re right. He’s making a move to be the governor of the world.
But all Trump needs to do is lower of the boom on Boobamba just a little bit to stop any of that going forward. An ex-President who is wanted for extradition by the United States will not be elected as world ruler.
‘Or perhaps a meeting with Putin before or after Trumps.’
Neither this one or the Polish visit (by Obama) will happen. Obama knows Putin-Alpha-Male has his number, and so the cowardly ex-POTUS will give him a wide berth. Obama also knows Trump is very popular in Poland, and the conniving Malignant Narcissist won’t risk showing up anywhere that he might get booed.
Obama needs two-faced lefties to make his shadow-presidency work. Merkel is a prime example, along with this short-sighted Leftist in Korea.
I think Ted Kennedy kept getting elected because he so many people opposed him. He stirred up State pride in Massachusetts and didn’t hurt that his brother was lionized after he was killed.
Why does Paul Ryan keep getting reelected? Local pride.
Yup. Obama has textbook malignant narcissism.
“If this Korean dude reached out to Barack Obama for advice on how to deal with President Trump, then he ain’t very bright.”
Bingo. Just ask Hillary about the value of Bambi’s advice.
“Notice he stays in countries with no extradition treaty.”........
He can run and hide but there is NO PLACE on this earth that he cannot be found. Look at how easily and permanently the Clinton’s handle their enemies.
Obama should be given a free 10 year vacation in the isle of Elba.
He is running for Sec General for the UN where he can do the most damage to the US.
Time to renegotiate that South Korean trade deal.
“Trump should cut his Secret Service detail from 650 to 50- that would be a good start!”..
There is only one effective way to shut odumbo up.
Well, all I can say is by his actions, the President of SK, who is a “weak sister” Liberal, just jumped to the head of President Trump’s $hit list! We should now pursue our own interests with respect to North Korea and leave SK out of the picture.
Trump is “addicted” to Tweets, Barry is addicted to being relevant and has vast, immeasurable narcissism. I’ll take the Tweeter in Chief!
I would tend to agree with you.
However, if Trump were to conduct himself the same as Obama, we would likely “rediscover” the power of this Logan Act at light speed, and invent vast new penalties for its violation.
