Matt Drudge, the founder of the highly influential news site the Drudge Report, trolled Obama in a rare tweet on Friday after the former president crawled out of his hole to trash Trump.
Obama gave a speech at the University of Illinois on Friday. He trashed Trump then arrogantly took credit for Trump’s booming economy.
The former president kicked off his campaign tour to help the Democrats win this fall in the midterms–only he will do them more damage than good.
Obama was a horrible president. He is the only president in history to never see a single year of 3.0% GDP growth yet here he is with a smug look on his face giving himself credit for Trump’s accomplishments.
Democrats lost a grand total of 1,042 federal posts under Obama’s presidency. This includes Congressional, state legislature and governorships–this was a repudiation of Obama’s policies.
Matt Drudge pointed out the carnage in the House and Senate under Obama’s presidency then said, “Now the former president is determined they never get them back!”
Bwahahaha
He wrote a dozen words.
Surely he is equal to Jesus.
Matt wept?
Blasphemer! How dare you chide St. Drudge.
Prior to drudges “Make America Raciest Again” I used to go to his site several times a day, every day. I have not been to or even seen his page since, and never will.
Drudge is turned. Moving on.
Not buying or selling. Just a data point.
Andrew Wilkow said on his radio show a year or so back, “when Freepers don’t like you, they REALLY don’t like you.”
He got that right.
Personal story of mine:
First we got internet at work and I discovered the brand new Drudge.
Then somehow I ran across FR (maybe a mention on Drudge?) and started lurking in 1998. Used the word “sheeple” a lot.
Now this suspicious Drudge weird stuff lately.
Could this really be the end of Drudge? I have noticed the trashy anti-Trump links he put in for the last few months.
Sad end of an era after the Monica intern story.
Who will his new audience be if we wipe our feet and wash our hands and say goodbye over one shoulder? Will Joe and Mika quote him every few minutes trashing the right? Creepy.
I haven’t been to Drudge for several years. It would appear I have not missed anything.
I’ve tried thelibertydaily.com. It’s pretty good. Lots of intrusive ads though.
Do you know of any good sites that are like Drudge?

Matt Drudge trolled President Trump‘s signature campaign slogan to weigh in on the violence in Charlottesville, Virginia.
Topping the homepage of Drudge Report on Saturday night, it read, “Make America Hate Again! Chaos at Race Rally in Virginia.”
Drudge has been growing increasingly critical of the Trump presidency. Last month, he tweeted a front page of an old copy of the New York Daily News that read “Trump in a Slump.” He went after Republicans for their failed efforts to repeal and replace Obamacare with the headline “Hot Mess: Will They Botch Tax Cuts Next?” Back in February, he tweeted that the GOP “should be sued for fraud” for their inaction on Obamacare and tax cuts.

Too little too late is an understatement.
If the economy only improves after Democrats/0bama leave office, I can only imagine how much better our economy would be doing had they (he) never been in office to begin with.
President Trump’s rallies avg about 15,000 people (on the inside).
0bama drew 750.
LOL.

Drudge might be homosexual, but he’s pretty equal opportunity in his reporting and highlighting. He’s one of my first stops on the Internets every day. Definitely worth checking out every day several times.
**I’ve tried thelibertydaily.com. It’s pretty good. Lots of intrusive ads though.**
The ad bombardment there is ridiculous. I quit going there about a month ago.
In addition to Drudge, realclearpolitics.com is another site that is worth looking at. They usually balance one article for to one article against on every topic they provide links for. Usually a good source of reading a variety of articles each day on the Internet. They post in the morning and then in the afternoon, sometimes a third time if there’s lots of news on a given day.
Although many Freepers seem to whine incessantly about Matt Drudge’s alleged infractions against conservatism, he is the only journalist that I trust. The fact that he has the objectivity to present both sides does not in anyway diminish the fact that he pro-life and has done more than anyone in the written media to support conservatives. He may not always support our favorite candidates or causes, but he is a good guy on the right side.
