Obama: Donald Trump won't be president and shouldn't be given the nuclear codes
The Los Angeles Times ^ | February 16, 2016

Donald Trump "will not be president" despite his commanding lead in the Republican field, President Obama flatly declared Tuesday, bluntly questioning Trump's temperament while asserting that a restive electorate would ultimately make a "sensible choice."

It was Obama's most scathing assessment of the Republican nomination battle to date as he argued that Trump's views were the norm, not the exception, in the Republican Party, and that the front-runner had no business being given access to nuclear weapons or deciding how to prevent a banking crisis.

"Whoever is standing where I'm standing right now has the nuclear codes with them, and can order 21-year-olds into a firefight," he said, "and have to make sure that the banking system doesn't collapse and is often responsible for not just the United States of America but 20 other countries that are having big problems or are falling apart and are going to be looking for us to do something....

Considering the source,the best course will usually be the exact opposite of what Obama prescribes.

I bet that Obama kind of likes Rubio, though.

The Ezekiel 38 war WILL come to pass. It is prophesied.

Obama and co. and those who helped enable the deal with the Corker bill helped make it a reality.

Iran is listed in verse 5 as “Persia” in the KJV.

Who says it has to happen NOW.

The desire could be there centuries before the fulfillment.

At least Trump wouldn’t give our codes away. Why can’t this lame duck ride of quietly into the sunset? Hasn’t he done enough damage?

The pot calling the kettle black. Obama was never a president either.

Obama is going to do for Trump exactly what he did for the gun industry, best salesman ever. :^)

I believe the communist-Islamist alliance that committed the crimes to put Obama into the White House did the 9-11-08 electronic run on the bank and then used the threat of another run that would collapse the US economy as a way to get the media to ignore Obama’s eligibility issues and Muslim leanings (in a threat passed on to the media heads by Axelrod, Soros, and Emanuel in October of 2008). The same threat was used to silence McCain (who then silenced Palin), GW Bush, Dick Cheney, John Roberts, and a bunch of eligibility judges...

That threat still exists.

But I don’t think economic collapse is the total plan, though it may be a part of the plan. Obama said in July of 2008 (shortly before the crimes that got him the dem nomination and the position in our White House) that he would be POTUS for “the next 8 to 10 years”. The only way that could happen is if some catastrophe happened that kept an election and/or inauguration from being ABLE to happen. A financial collapse would be tough, but it would not stop elections and an inauguration from being able to happen. What WOULD make those impossible is an EMP attack - and Obama has been working hard the past 7 years to make sure everything is ready for precisely that.

Yeah, an economic collapse may come. But it won’t be the ONLY thing to come, or even the worst thing to come. Everything is ready. And Obama plans to be celebrating “his accomplishments” with Cuba, Venezuela, the communist terrorist group FARC, etc in November and December. From his critical involvement in Francis Fox Piven’s “Strategy of Manufactured Crisis” it is clear that he shared the same vision as the Columbia University communists that Larry Grathwohl infiltrated, and their plan was to dismantle the US and hand her land and resources over to China, Russia, Cuba, and Viet Nam. If Obama is celebrating his “permanent accomplishments” it will be most likely by laughing his a$$ off as he watches the mushroom cloud over the continental US (not Hawaii, where he plans to live...) from his safe position in South America. And that’s in November and December of this year, which would be just in time to stop elections and/or an inauguration.

I’m glad it was posted tonight; I missed it the first time around. And what better type of thread to unite FReepers than one about obarky? As far as I can tell, except for a few comments from the Trump crowd, everyone has been on the same page here, including Cruz supporters like me. Why is that a problem for you?

There is a stupor over the populace, including here. That will be what allows this to happen now, if it happens now and not sometime later.

I think we need to try to stop it as best we can now, because it might not be time yet, and we could preserve life for our children and grandchildren. And by doing what we can we can live without bloodguilt as much as possible.

But we definitely need to be preparing ourselves both spiritually and materially, because this is real.

Apparently, nobody told Obama that Trump doesn’t play that PC game.
