LIMA, Peru (AP) — President Barack Obama said Sunday 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."

Offering a rare glimpse into his thoughts on his post-presidency, Obama suggested once he was out of office he would uphold the tradition of ex-presidents stepping aside quietly to allow their successors space to govern.

Marxist “ideals” are NOT American ideals, Obie. You fooled the American people twice but your mini-me-Marxist-lite clone Hillary was exposed and see through by the sane, non-delusional voters.

Your legacy will go down, over time, in flames, which is fitting as to where you belong.

When the truth about the Benghazi massacre and coverup finally comes out, you will have no legacy except one of treason, pathological lies, and cowardice.

How do you like them rotten apples, O? And there will be plenty of your Good Germans in that apple barrel with you.

He’ll be swatted away like the gnat he is. Nobody likes him in real life, and the minute his legal powers are gone, his “friends” will mostly vanish except for a few zealots.

Obami is forgetting that he WILL NO BE THE PRESIDENT at that future time. He is conflating the balls of the US of A with his own little beans. After January 20th he is just another street-level communist agitator who can get his punk-ass handed to hi. At any time.

So what will the ousted dictator, Obama, do if Trump doesn’t follow Obama’s orders? Will Obama us his ISIS army to attack us?

Throw the SOB in prison.

Obama hated the US from day one, what ideals is he referring to? Besides there are still way too many IOU’s waiting to be cashed in. I just hope it all end in a peaceful manner.

If we had wanted Obama and his ideals, we would have voted for Hillary.

He spent 8 years blaming all his mistakes on his predecessor. Now he will spend the next 8 years blaming them on his successor.

You know, men in women's bathrooms, "affordable" healthcare, allowing many more muslims into America.
