Obama to Take October Off to Campaign for Hillary All Month
Gateway Pundit ^ | July 28, 2016 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 07/28/2016 7:52:22 AM PDT by Hojczyk

The president plans to campaign aggressively for Mrs. Clinton this fall. Aides have largely cleared his calendar in October, and barring new crises, the White House expects Mr. Obama to be on the campaign trail almost daily leading up to Election Day.

Based on what he has said, Mr. Trump would probably use the power of the Oval Office to quickly overturn Mr. Obama’s immigration actions, try to unravel the Affordable Care Act, order the Environmental Protection Agency to lift regulations on coal plants established under Mr. Obama, reimpose abortion restrictions at home and abroad, shift the focus of American foreign policy, start building a wall along the border with Mexico and bar entry to the United States from countries with a history of terrorism.

Some of Mr. Obama’s closest advisers describe that as their worst nightmare.

“I’m sure he thinks about that first 100 days the way the rest of us do,” Dan Pfeiffer, the president’s former senior adviser, said of Mr. Obama. “You wake up every day, and another thing that you and your team worked so hard to do is undone. That would be more painful than the president or any of us can imagine.”

Valerie’s man child will issue mass pardons after the election, kind of nullifying any investigations. Count on it.

Makes me wonder how many official appearances he can include in that month to counter his political appearances. I'm sure Judicial Watch will be keeping track.

Obama will just, as usual, read about any crisis/scandal/tragedy in the news.

I sure hope Trump publishes a daily scorecard on Obama’s travels in October.

How much Taxpayer Money being spent. How many Gallons of Jet Fuel burned and how much Carbon Dioxide those old Engines on AF1 (and it’s sister Plane that always follows) are spewing into the Atmosphere.

Add in the C-17 that carries all of Obama’s stuff as well.

“No golf?”

Oh, I assumed that’s what they were talking about. Time off the golf course.

Good. Accomplishes two things. He can’t do anymore damage than usual and he’ll help Trump win the election by campaigning for the witch.

I wish Trump would do something about this freewheeling crap that goes on with the taxpayers dime. Maybe he will.

We shouldn’t have to pay for him campaigning for Hillary.

Events (worldwide and domestic) will not allow him his favorite pastime.

Otherwise, we all get to see real president Jarrett (and Soros etc.) in charge at action.

Campaigning, golfing, vacationing, whatever is fine as long as he’s not doing actually government stuff.

The official story is it’s for another candidate, but the reality is that Omuslim LOVES to campaign. It’s all about HIM again - in the limelight, adoring crowds, etc. I’m sure the Hillary campaign is cringing ... he’ll overshadow her, try to steal the spotlight, and she won’t be given any room at all to distance herself from his unpopular policies, etc. If he stays out of Washington & isn’t busy with his pen/phone, then I’m ok with that. We’ve paid $79 million for Omuslim vacay & fundraising travel thus far .... a few more million down the toilet if it keeps him from being more destructive his last months in office is something we’ll just have to suck up and deal with - I can live with it if he’s damaging Hilly in the process.

What!? The poor woman is so weak, incompetent and inept that Obama has to carry her across the finish line. Wow that will impress the voters!

Trump should start asking a similar question to the one Reagan asked. “Are you better off now than you were eight years ago?” Then show Clinton with Bambi. He’s already made the case that she represents his third term. All he has to do is point out that they are campaigning on that case, too.

This really pisses me off. WE are paying him to WORK, not campaign and use Air Force 1.

It’s not as if he runs the country anyway.
Actually I think this will seem like REAL work to him, and he’ll probably get testy & angry, like narcissists do when it’s not all about them.

Ya, I think in the past, whenever he campaigned for someone running for Congress or Senate or state governor, that his candidate ended up losing. So if the track record holds, he may well drag Hillary down to defeat.

...

He campaigned against Brexit which helped it pass. And then there was his failure to bring the Olympics to Chicago. The Clintons are already repulsive. Obama will make them worse.

This is actually good news, considering Obama’s track record with political endorsements. Every Democrat he’s campaigned for (that I know of) has gone down to defeat.

I recall that his touch was so deadly in his first term, that Dems running for office began to run from him.
