Former President Barack Obama came out of retirement Friday afternoon to slam President Trump, take credit for the Trump economy, berate Republicans, lecture the country on civility and more.

In addition, he did his best to talk about rebuilding the Democrat Party he destroyed. During his presidency, the Party lost more than 1,000 seats from the local to the federal level.

He also claimed he's pro-free speech, despite his Justice Department spying on reporters and their executives. This included taking their phone records and naming at least on Fox News reporter as a criminal conspirator, which required Attorney General Eric Holder's DOJ to lie to a federal judge.
From the New York Times:
The Obama administration, which has a chilling zeal for investigating leaks and prosecuting leakers, has failed to offer a credible justification for secretly combing through the phone records of reporters and editors at The Associated Press in what looks like a fishing expedition for sources and an effort to frighten off whistle-blowers.
On Friday, Justice Department officials revealed that they had been going through The A.P.’s records for months. The dragnet covered work, home and cellphone records used by almost 100 people at one of the oldest and most reputable news organizations. James Cole, a deputy attorney general, offered no further explanation on Tuesday, saying only that it was part of a “criminal investigation involving highly classified material” from early 2012.
Attorney General Eric Holder Jr. said he could not comment on the details of the phone records seizure, which he said was an open investigation — although he was happy to comment on the open investigation into the tax audits of conservative groups, which he said might have been criminal and were “certainly outrageous and unacceptable.”
I'll leave you with this.
Tell-a-Lie Prompter Withdrawl.
What no one dare say...I will..all roads of corruption led to Odunga. He is campaigning for his life....life in the USA.
Gotta love Katie.
Same as the last time. Soros.
“According to Obama, it started in the SEVENTH year of his administration”
I have commission payments that prove otherwise. Our income did not turn around UNTIL Trump reversed O’s EOs which had stifled manufacturing. The reversal of the downturn began in MARCH 2017, and it took about another 6 months to a year before business returned to normal. Now it is blazing. I give the credit solely to DJT.
Anyone who dares to suggest otherwise is welcome to contribute to offset my income lost solely to BO. BO knows what he did. It was intentional destruction.
I see only the beautiful people, W and Laura [and also Mooch] are able to reply to any of his sanctimonious pontifications.
How democratic.
This demented windbag has a compulsion to fan the flames of Marxist divisiveness.
Notice he was back to the teleprompters
Projection.
I guess his invitation from the traitor McSHame gave him a new boost of ego.
According to Obama, it started in the SEVENTH year of his administration. If it takes that long, you didn’t do a good job.

He would just say it took him six years to undo all the damage that GW Bush did.
0bama can flap his gums all he wants; the more he speaks, the deeper he digs.
There’s a NEW Sheriff in town...WE WON!
Best. Election. Ever. EVER! MAGA!
True.
And President Obama is too obtuse to realize HE is the reason we have President Donald J Trump.
I realize one has to post this dribble because one needs to know ones enemies, but its nauseating reading Obama quotes none the less.
Obama is still the same old “ZERO” he always was. He loves only himself...no one else. If he is the Democrat Party leader to bring about the “massive” Democrat Party “Blue Wave” victory this coming November, in the Mid-Term Elections, the Democrat leadership group and rank & file Democrats are either smoking far too much reefer, drinking to much bad booze or, better yet, simply insane.
Obama has failed the first two (2) times he took the stage, addressing “rigged, setup” audiences, a college group of brainwashed students, released from their classes and told they must attend the Obama lecture and, worse yet the Southern California “by invitation only” Democrat adorees.
I now know, we will not see either Obama or Hillary Clinton addressing the large type “open to all” Trump style huge, heavily attended by common, average American folk, from all walks of life, rallies. The Obama/Clinton gigs will be rigged and managed as was the McCain funeral “Big Brother” Orwell act.
Obama is not campaigning, he is trying to save his legacy, which by the way, designates Obama as a bottom feeding total failure, a 100% ZERO. Good Luck, Schumer & Pelosi, Good luck, Democrats...”NOT”!!!
And...what about them two (2) Democrat, 2020 POTUS possibles, the buffoons, fools, deadbeats, Harris & Booker...ain’t they just peachy?
Go, Donald J. Trump, Go, GOP...GOTV, Go, MAGA....and everyone get out and vote to politically destroy the entire Democrat Party on November 6, 2018 or before via early and absentee voting!!! Do it & save the USA Republic!!!
The teleprompter made him look like a petty political hack. Keep it up Barack.
