Barack Obama: I'll push back on Donald Trump if needed to defend US ideals
The Telegraph ^ | 11-21-2016 | AP

Posted on 11/21/2016 6:23:42 AM PST by Trump_vs_Evil_Witch

President Barack Obama said on Sunday that he doesn't intend to become his successor's constant critic - but reserved the right to speak out if President-elect Donald Trump or his policies breach certain "values or ideals."....... He heaped praise on former President George W Bush, saying he "could not have been more gracious to me when I came in" and said he wanted to give Mr Trump the same chance to pursue his agenda "without somebody popping off" at every turn.

But Mr Obama suggested there may be limits to his silence.

He wouldn’t know an ideal if it bit him on the ass. Americans are going to have to start pushing back against the media & asshat to help Trump get things done.

My ideals,Obola,were taught to me by parents who were of a generation that helped make this country great.Your values came from your Communist mother,your Communist grandparents,Indonesia,Kenya,Saul Alinsky and Bill Ayers.

I've been to Chicago,Obola.I've also been to Kenya and Indonesia.I've read the works of Alinsky and Ayers.They all teach/follow values that I want ABSOLUTELY NO PART OF!

What’s the betting pool for the number of months Obama goes before doing a “drop-in” on some rapper’s song where Barry ‘raps’ against President Trump?

He's so brain-dead he actually thinks we don't know his criticisms of Trump will be used to raise funds for his get-rich-quick foundations (two that we know of).

==============================================

The post-prez Obama's got big plans---to get-rich-quick ala the Clintons----and have two foundations (that we know of). The Obama foundation just got a quick infusion of 100 million tax dollars via Michele's Morocco trip to "teach Muslim girls."

US TAXPAYERS PAY NOW---the Obamas collect later.

Obama's federal outlays (that we know of).:

<><> $150 billion to Muslim Iran in the super-secret nuclear deal,

<><> $2 billion funding to his bro Malik's organization---the Muslim Brotherhood,

<><> $50 million to Malik/Barack's tax-exempt foundation in the form of a grant to Kenya (his homeland).

<><> While the Muslim Brotherhood was in charge in Egypt, Obama (and Hillary) showered them w/ praise.....and billions of US dollars in aid, arms, tanks and planes.

<><> ITEM---Obama gave $90 million US tax dollars to wealthy oil-rich Muslim African Muslim countries.

<><> Obama's homeland--Kenya--is now listed as the biggest recipient of US foreign aid.

<><> ITEM---there's billions missing from the Obamacare scam.

<><> ITEM---6 billion is missing rom the State Dept contractor fund

<><> Before Morocco, Obama sent Michele to oil-rich Muslim Quatar w/ $73 million US tax dollars to "teach Muslim girls."

ITEM---Mrs O got $100 million tax dollars from the State Dept's Millennium Challenge Corporation on her visit to Morocco, targeted to "teach Muslim girls". The 100 million tax dollars are to be (cough) administered by the post-presidency tax-exempt Obama Foundation.

LOOK AT THAT SMILE Michele, her daughters and her mother in
Morocco's palace. 100 million dollars to spend when she and Mr O
get back to Chicago

Obama recently gave Michelle 100 million tax dollars to give to Morocco to "teach Muslim girls (NOTE Morocco previously scored a State Dept compact worth almost a billion dollars to increase literacy).

The tax money to Michele came from a State Dept agency under Hillary's control---the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC)

=============================================

FREEPER ACTION PROJECT--DO THIS NOW: demand the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) books be opened. We demand to know the financial details and the scope and dimension of individuals connected to these outrageous State Dept giveaways....govt parasites profiting at taxayers' expense.

CONTACT CONGRESS HERE---http://www.contactingthecongress.org/

Americans must demand to see fund solicitation letters coming out of Obama's tax-exempt presidential foundations and his Chicago library fund.

Are any of his WH comments used to forward his policy being regurgitated in fund solicitation latters?

Americans demand to know if US govt policy is being wrongly used....in an effort to raise tax-free money for the Obamas.

If I were a democrat... I’d be scum... err
I mean I would be worried about this. He can only harm his party at this point.

but I wouldn’t put it past him to work behind the scenes on something nefarious.

There is allegedly a tradition, in which the outgoing president leaves a note for the incoming president, in his desk. I can’t imagine how self serving Barry’s will be.

I know this isn’t the prayer thread, but I have to say, “Please, God... take this man OUT — out of the country, out of his security detail, out of his health, out of his ability to speak, out of the world — just OUT! In Jesus name, Amen.”

Quick, get me the smelling salts. Obama just found out America has ideals....and (faint) plans to defend them?

He’s had eight years to dedend US ideals......needless to say, he didn’t.

Too late Buster, get out of my sight.

“I’m thinking of getting bumper stickers for...WE WON..get over yourselves.”

I’d mentioned a bumper sticker: “Trump won. Suck it up, Buttercup!”

Obama misspoke - what he wants to defend is “Democrat Ideals” - which is his right. Democrat ideals are NOT the countries ideals.. How friggin’ arrogant can he get? Offensive.

FUBO! I’d like to see Trump deck your ass. You know nothing about “US ideals and values”. Why? Because you are not one of us.

I thought the result of the last election was a good indicator of what the rest of us think of his values. To quote Obama after the last election, “You lost and I won”.
