Her biggest fashion flops.....but there was a lot of competition.

We reported on former President Barack Obama's effort this week to pump up his presidential center, which is finally opening in June.(snip)
I can't imagine there would be a lot of ordinary folks beating down the doors to visit. As we've noted, the main building is not exactly a beacon of attractiveness. It's just flat-out ugly. They're even selling a pin that's supposed to look like the building, and the pin is similarly ugly. Plus, you have to shell out $30 for the pin, which is just a gray blob of clay.
One of the funniest was this necklace, which was priced at $390.(snip)
"It’s a timeless, hand-crafted accessory and a graceful nod to Mrs. Obama’s celebrated eye for fashion and her belief that our style is a powerful part of our story."
Her celebrated eye for fashion? They're kidding, aren't they?
They are even pitching these renewable energy kits for kids. Except, collectively, they add up to $460.(snip)
But in among the books that are mostly about Barack or Michelle Obama is this classic. Somehow, its inclusion tells you all you need to know.
"Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals ($20) is available for purchase" (snip)
Oh, and if you are silly enough to buy it from them, it will cost you double what you could pay for it on Amazon. So, why would you buy it from the Center?
But if you buy things, there is this fine print:
Proceeds from each sale support the Obama Foundation in its mission to inspire, empower and connect people to change their world.
As the saying goes, Caveat emptor.

Hopefully there will be a teen take over there soon.
The Husseins said the wood from over 800 trees was to be made into Hussein trinkets. Even the locals didn’t want the flak tower.
LOSS: Bulldozers Clear 20 Acres of Jackson Park for OPC Construction, including the Woman’s Garden and 800 Old-Growth Trees
“Months before the official groundbreaking of the Obama Presidential Center (OPC), residents and commuters were already noticing changes to the landscape near the lakefront.
“Yet, for many people, the scope of the area’s impending transformation didn’t really hit home until the trees came down, hundreds of trees—some more than a century old—seemingly taken for granted by OPC planners. And the Women’s Garden at Jackson Park was recently uprooted to the dismay of local residents who’d been told by the Obama Foundation that it would be left intact.
“It does not take a ‘tree hugger’ or a preservationist to realize the ecological damage that has been done overnight, which has wider implications for the city. The Southeast Side, for example—if not the entire South Side—notoriously suffers from environmental pollution and can hardly afford to spare a square foot of greenery.
“Studies show the Jackson Park trees removed about 350 pounds of air pollution a year and absorbed two hundred tons of carbon. They additionally provided a cooling effect and a needed respite for Chicagoans. Proponents of the OPC in Jackson Park have assured the public that they will replace the tree deficit with the same number of young trees, but frankly, we may not see the Lake Shore canopy return to its former glory in our lifetimes or ever.
“The trees that were cut consisted of roughly forty species of mostly healthy mature trees with trunks that were up to fifty-nine inches in width and acted as both food and shelter for birds and wildlife. The majority of birds that inhabit or migrate through the state descend upon the shores of Chicago’s Lake Michigan in a route that is known as the Mississippi Flyway. All kinds of bird species, plant species, and animals and insects, were co-dependent on the Jackson Park ecosystem that has been disrupted.
“This piece of protected land has been coveted ever since it was host to the World’s Columbian Exposition and dating further back. But today, through a combination of legislative maneuvers, Jackson Park has gone from having public oversight to being controlled by private hands.” (Serrato, South Side Weekly, 9/30/21)
They will fleece the citizens of Chicago first, then the state of Illinois and if a Democrat is ever elected POTUS they will attempt to fleece everyone in the US.
People actually visit the Reagan library. It’s packed all day, every day they are open.
Her biggest fashion flops.....but there was a lot of competition.
It already is!
Hahahaha!
Or, “The Obama Presidential Learing Center”!
Or a fake tooth for Democrats under investigation that has cyanide built into it!
Obama’s sinister presidential outhouse is so ugly, birds probably think twice about pooping on it.
I went to visit the Reagan library during the Obamanation. It was a retreat into better times for me. Great location on top of a hill big enough to see the ocean from it .
