President Barack Obama acknowledged in a New Yorker profile published online Thursday that his first meeting with Donald Trump may not have actually lived up to its sunny official description.

I guess its useful to be faced with the evidence that so many are so passionately deluded.
Reaching across the aisle isn’t at all tempting on that evidence. The problem was “going along to get along” in the first place.

Just clean the stable, end the entitlements and get back to making America great for all Americans. Let the liberals spin their wheels.

Trump stepped on his skinny neck, that’s all I need to know.

Pretty awful...didn’t realize that site was so far left. Well who cares about these pinheads and their tender widdle feelings? I’m just looking forward to the “gleeful trashing” of all of Obama’s unconstitutional acts and the un-doing of his entire legacy. When they wake up some morning and realize they got nothing out of Obama except the same pain in the pocketbook the rest of us got, maybe they’re change. I doubt it.

The only thing the loser loony LIBs deserve is continual ridicule. They are a malignancy on humanity. I laugh at their fecklessness and at their idiocy.

Dealing with us by inflicting Obama upon us. Obama has already done irreparable harm to this country.

No problem, our 8 year meeting with Obama wasn’t all that it was cracked up to be either.

Hussein delusional as always, good thing Trump sleeps 3 hours per night.

Here’s everything Donald Trump has promised to do on his first day in office (or, in a few cases, things his running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, has promised Trump will do):

• “Repeal every single Obama executive order.” (He has also pledged more specifically to “eliminate every unconstitutional executive order.”)

• “Repeal Obamacare.” (On Trump’s campaign website, he’s less bullish, promising only to “ask Congress” on day one to repeal Obamacare immediately.)

• “End the war on coal.”

• “Begin swiftly removing criminal illegal immigrants from this country.” (More specifically, Trump has promised to do this in his “first hour” in office, “day one, before the wall, before anything.”)

• “Begin working on an impenetrable, physical, tall, powerful, beautiful, southern border wall.”

• Meet with Homeland Security officials and generals to begin securing the southern border.

• “Notify all countries that refuse to take back dangerous illegal immigrants who have committed crimes in this country that they will lose access to our visa programs if they continue to do so.”

• Convene his top generals and inform them they have 30 days to come up with a plan to stop ISIS.

• Fix the Department of Veterans Affairs.

• Call the heads of major companies who are moving operations oversea to inform them that they’ll face 35 percent tariffs.

• “Contact countries and say…’Folks, we love protecting you, we want to continue to protect you but you’re not living up to the bargain’…They’re not paying what they’re supposed to be paying—which is very little, by the way.”

• “Defend the unborn.”

• “Withdraw from TPP.”

• “Start taking care of our…military.”

• Suspend Syrian refugee resettlement.

• “Notify our NAFTA partners of my intention to renegotiate the deal.”

• “Designate China as a currency manipulator.”

• “Direct every agency in government to begin identifying all wasteful job-killing regulations, and they are going to be removed.”

• “Get rid of gun-free zones [in] schools” and “military bases”—which would require repealing a 25-year-old federal law. (”My first day, it gets signed, okay? My first day. There’s no more gun-free zones.”)

• “Ask Congress to pass ‘Kate’s Law’—named for Kate Steinle—to ensure that criminal aliens convicted of illegal reentry receive strong mandatory minimum sentences.”

Sounds like a bunch of folks are about THAT FAR from dying of apoplexy. Trump isn’t my first or even second choice candidate, but I am truly enjoying the waiting for them all to stroke out.

“Dealing with us by inflicting Obama upon us.”

Or was that just a wake-up call?

“Obama has already done irreparable harm to this country.”

Sounds to me like a lot of folks pulled their heads up out of their rut and took a good look around. Though it wasn’t the folks commenting on the article’s source website.

Obama will set up a big stupid sign saying the ex-president of the United States seal where ever he speaks.

Just like the stupid seal he did when he was President-elect. 8 years ago

His ego has no bounds.

Click the link to read the New Yorker piece.

Fascinating read about the truth as they see it, not the truth as it is.

Tough to discern when the NewYorker is editorializing and when they are quoting Obama.
