He used melting glaciers as a backdrop to talk about climate change, posed with small children and large fish, and became the first sitting president to venture north of the Arctic Circle.

He seemed to smile throughout the trip, and why not? The nuclear agreement that Secretary of State John Kerry negotiated with Iran is now safe from congressional meddling. U.S. economic growth for the second quarter was a healthy 3.7 percent. Unemployment has fallen to 5.1 percent, according to figures released Friday. Saudi King Salman — portrayed by Obama's critics as peeved with the president — dropped by the White House on Friday for a chat, reportedly renting an entire luxury hotel for his entourage.

Eugene Robinson licks the dirty boot heels of Valerie and Hussein.

What do you expect him to scribble?

I guess I am so anti-obunghole I can't relate him with any form of entertainment.

That's just me though.

“President Trump is going to wipe that smile off his face when he repeals every last one of Obola’s Executive Orders/Memos on Day One”

At no time has Trump promised to do that.

Ted Cruz has repeatedly promised to do that.
