President Obama gave what could easily be considered a stand-up comedy routine at a Democratic fundraiser in Dallas, Texas, on Saturday.
The president hasn't endorsed a candidate yet, but he made an appearance at the fundraiser to try and ensure whoever gets the nomination is financially set to beat the Republicans.
During the talk, given a day after he gave the keynote speech at South by Southwest in Austin, Texas, Obama rubbed elbows with Texas Democrats and even tried on a cowboy hat.
But it was when he took the stage at Gilley's Club, where the Democratic National Committee was hosting the fundraiser, that the casually-dressed president really let loose.
'Image what Trump would say if he actually had a record like this?' the president said referencing his own personal record as president. 'Instead of selling steaks.
'Has anybody bought that wine?' he went on... apparently meaning the wine Trump sells. 'I want to know what that wine tastes like.
'I mean, come on. You know that's like some $5 wine. They slap a label on it. They charge you $50 and say it's the greatest wine ever.'
'Come on,' Obama said, still laughing. 'Oh, boy. Selling wine. That's not what we're for. Couldn't make it up.'
'Build on the progress, not reverse it. Instead we have a debate inside the other party that is fantasy and schoolyard taunts and selling stuff like it's the home shopping network,' he said.

Agreed! But the look on his face is very telling.
I read that he thinks he is the funniest thing to come along. He looks VERY PROUD of himself!!! (cfeo)
Like Urkel’s “did I do that” proud!
Who drinks the most?
Why does he complain? The girly man never pays his own way, we do!
Zer0 has zero class. The only wine he likes is Boone’s Farm Stawberry Hill—with a bong of pot!

LOL!!! You just messed up my nightly snack.
Just lost my hunger feelings!!!
I will thank you as I step on the scales in the morning though! :)
Boomlakalaka!
0bola is used to a lot of cheap whine..
I was disappointed. They don't carry white port, which can be mixed with lemon juice to make W-P-L-J.
Had to click on the link, not being informed re: the ‘spirits’. Still uninformed. LOL!!
Trump LOVES America. Obama strongly dislikes America.
Trump wants America to win. Obama insists America lose.
Trump wants to strengthen America. Obama does everything to weaken America.
What has this piece of crap ever done or created that he feels free to criticize a guy who created an empire? Maybe not all of Trump’s endeavors have been successful, but most of them have. Obama hasn’t created sh*t.
Lol!

Is this really the recipe? Two large gallon buckets?
SNEAKY PETE
64 oz. 7-Up
16 oz. cranberry juice
32 oz. frozen orange juice
32 oz. frozen lemonade
1/5 slow gin
1 c. powdered sugar
Mix all ingredients in 2 large gallon buckets. Freeze for 24 hours or longer until slushy. Serve as a slush with a spoon, or can thaw and drink as a punch. Makes 1 1/2 gallons.
The quantity of wine produced also determines the price.
Often there are only one or two hundred cases made.
Bathhouse Barry is obviously an expert on cheap wine, being a “community ORGANizer” and all.
My GOD he is such a piece of shit.
You’re almost down to 300 days, Chuckles.
