“Pave the way” for Clinton? Really? The only person I know who would ‘protect’ what Omuslim has put in place to the satisfaction of Omuslim/Valjar is Biden.

Everything that Obama ever did will be un-DONE with the
revelation of this guys college records and background check.

Trump will UN-DO all these illegal acts , i.e. executive orders etc., Obama Care, Dream Act, and so on. The Donald will do it all effortlessly and quickly as he puts America back on the RIGHT Track!! Yea!!

Bernie shall certainly be in the audience at the State of the Urkel, er, Union address tonight, the presence of Herself is not so sure.

Herself may be there, but not necessarily to be anointed by the Current Occupant. Herself is quickly becoming radioactive, and mention may a source of contamination.

The Enemdia wants to abet Obama is taking one more giant cleaver to America — hoping to sever the last of the ligaments which hold it together.

“He may announce he is staying on as president.”

^^^^^
This would not surprise me one little bit! I am fully expecting it at some point. IMO, Bozo and his cabal have no intention of leaving.
