Obama ‘Might Just Weigh In’ On Issues During Trump Presidency

President Barack Obama plans to speak out when he believes he needs to during the presidency of Donald Trump.

During an interview with his former White House adviser and now CNN political analyst David Axelrod, Obama reflected on the last 8 years what he wants to do for himself in the near and long term future

“I’m not sticking around by the virtue of the Constitution and because I believe in the wisdom that George Washington showed that at a certain point you make room for new voices and fresh legs,” Obama said.

He went on to say, “Now that doesn’t mean that if a year from now or year and a half from now or two years from now there is an issue of such a moment–such import that isn’t just a debate about a particular tax bill or a particular policy but it goes to some foundational issues about our democracy I might just weigh in. I’m still a citizen. And that carries with it duties and obligations.”

Not even some blacks will like it. Some blacks don’t really like Obama. It’s the hard core SJWs that may remain.

Glad to hear it.

Your opinion will mean just as much as mine does after noon on the twentieth of next January.

Every single President has shut up during the next one’s.

Even George W. Bush.

Not this asshole. No, he’ll be on the Sundays shows each and every week.

I say, GOOD. Let’s keep reminding America why we rejected you.

He’s the President.... and I’ve muted him for eight years (The word “mute” is warn off my remote) so it won’t matter. Just left white noise, I’m immune (and so is most of this great country).

Since the death of the Clinton machine, Obama is de facto leader of the remnants of the Democrat party.

He did a terrible job of everything he has ever done, except be black

a Barack vs: Bernie war will be something to behold

I can’t see any way Obama could wind up in Guantanamo Bay.

Because if he is a problem Egypt can be granted extradition and he could be gone from the United States forever within hours. Less fuss, and irreversible.

He’ll find no one’s listening.

The US is heartily and mightily sick of the idiot obama and everything he represents.

Obama, Hillary, and Bernie fighting it out for control of the Democrat party is a great outcome for us. They’ll never be united.

He needs to shut up and go away.

Trump needs to fire all of Obama’s appointees from day one. Just like Clinton did when he took over from Bush I.

EVERY. LAST. ONE.
