This is why I don't like Obama IF he did, in fact, say this. I didn't read or hear this. I think this is very twisted and a lie.
Here is what he said:
“I’m going to be constrained in what I do with all of you until I am again a private citizen,” Mr. Obama, who will be living a few miles from the White House next year, told a meeting this past week of Organizing for Action, the group that maintains his political movement. “But that’s not so far off.”
I'm sure he was counseled (forced) to say anything remotely positive about his ARCH NEMESIS. What is he going to do? Be TRUMP and act like Trump would if Trump lost? I think if he does say anything too negative right at this juncture, he will cause more rioting.
WASHINGTON — President Obama is rethinking his plans to withdraw from the political arena after he leaves office next year, hinting to friends and supporters that he wants to add his voice to the shellshocked Democratic activists and elected officials who are now angrily vowing to oppose Donald J. Trump’s presidency.
White House aides say they expect the president to try to refrain from criticism during the transition because of his belief in the importance of a courteous and dignified transfer of power. But while the president holds out hope that he might influence Mr. Trump, he has made it clear that once out of office he will not remain silent if Mr. Trump goes too far in undoing his legacy.
“I’m going to be constrained in what I do with all of you until I am again a private citizen,” Mr. Obama, who will be living a few miles from the White House next year, told a meeting this past week of Organizing for Action, the group that maintains his political movement. “But that’s not so far off.”
Dozens of liberal advocacy groups, which have received a flood of donations and new members in the chaotic days since Mr. Trump’s defeat of Hillary Clinton, are gearing up for years of clashes with Mr. Trump. After eight years of advocacy on behalf of the Obama agenda, they are racing to recast themselves as bulwarks against Mr. Trump’s expected assault on an array of Democratic policies.
Maybe Obama just wants things to settle down a little bit. I'm not convinced Trump is going to do the best job, he may even make things worse than they already are. By dividing ourselves, we are not going to make the situation any better.
LOL!! It's just too easy to vilify the man, he's given us ample ammunition. A lot of things involving the Clinton's' actions seem to have the habit of being swept under the carpet. I guess a lot of people forget she started all of that though. I don't like him, but I don't like false facts even more.
Me too neither pearl. PET lovers will NEVER admit he does anything wrong. Nothing is ever his fault. Everything has been blamed on Obama and Hillary. I believe PET lovers will continue to blame Obama and Hillary for everything wrong PET does until they die. They just are wired that way. They cannot help it. It is how they are programmed. Thank you for your reply and Happy Monday! :)
