President Obama Calls Donald Trump to Reaffirm ‘Smooth Transition of Power’
Breitbart ^ | December 28, 2016 | Charlie Spiering

Posted on 12/28/2016 7:39:55 PM PST by kevcol

Obama called Trump from Hawaii, where the president and his family are currently on vacation. The White House issued a statement after the call, asserting that Obama was still committed to a smooth transition.

“Today’s call, like the others since the election, was positive and focused on continuting a smooth and effective transition,” the statement read.

That phone call was to feel Trump out.. it was for obama to glean just where he stood with Trump after what obama did today and yesterday.
1. Would Trump answer his call?
2. Would he be cordial or cold?
3. Would he chew bo out or agree with bo?
4. Would he even mention what bo did?
5. Would he use words bo heard from others?
If obama got what he was looking for, he knows what he can do tomorrow. This is what girls/women do, to keep their power under control and know what to do next. They read into/from vibes, and go from there.. and that’s what ole’ obams did. You just know he was tuned in today to all the talkers on TV and radio.. to get his thrill.

(Just wish Trump would not answer obams calls.. but Trump has more respect for the office than I would with obams in it.) obama is going to go through withdrawals from no attention after the 20th ... ya know he’s thinking about ‘what if he had another term’... God saved us from that!!

He wanted to talk to Trump before Trump could get a report on his son-in-law’s meeting with Obama.

In desperation, The Undocumented Counterfeit, can’t forge a list of accomplishments.

His list of accomplishments, are as follows:

I have this feeling that the Clintons and the Obamas will all be fleeing the country for a comfortable exile in some Third World destination like Dubai.

This would be a good outcome because putting them on trial would become the mother of all distractions. And this we cannot afford while we’re rebuilding the economy, the rule of law, and a foreign policy that puts America first.

Obama uses his "Taqiya Hotline" to reaffirm his promise to effect a smooth transition of power.

Agreed. As much as I’d like to see them behind bars, it would be a huge distraction for the media, which would then not have to report on Trump’s successes.

Obama already bought a home in the ME, Dubai, I think. And Hillary certainly has the money and connections to leave.

Although she may have made promises she can no longer keep.

Human behavior is largely hard-wired, though we don't like to admit it (and most people don't realize it). Establishing positions on the social hierarchy can be done as much through body language and facial expressions as through any real action. I think Trump has a particular genius for this sort of thing. We saw it clearly in the Republican debates, where Trump made the others look like fools with merely a phrase or a gesture. In this photo, the meme wrote itself. The expression and body language tell you everything. I wouldn't be surprised if Trump was consciously aware of this fact at the moment it happened.

In other words, Trump got game.

It’ll get done sooner than that, but there will be a lot of screeching!

Rush has intimated that Trump knows he is dealing with a psychopath and is acting accordingly. I think Rush is right, AGAIN.

Will be fun to watch the Donald call for Sheriff Joe and recent Zero forged birth document findings he’ll submit to Congress; a simple press conference will be called and Barry will be asked why his SS# out of CT fails E-verify. Then all hell breaks loose. Not to mention the tyranny and treason of Zero’s actions from Iran deal, muzzie bros in white hut, IRS scandal, wasting tax money on first wookie’s vacations, Operation Zero footprint/Benghazi mess and all the other dirt that will be exposed. The undocumented sodomite muzzie allegiant affirmative action liberal fascist globalist puppet is about to get an atomic barbed wire wedgie when he’s prosecuted or try to flee to his pisslam countries. Probably will happen quite soon to expose what has to be dealt with and then throwing it over the hack media’s credibility, destroying them in the process and starting investigations and stripping their licences.
If I were to guess, I'd say Trump will use that info as a threat against Obozo to keep him on a short leash.

In other words, shortly after the Inauguration, Trump calls the skinny little SOB in for a meeting. There at the meeting is Joe Arpaio with all his research. Also on the table is a thick folder detailing all the things you mentioned.

Trump lays it out for Ohaha: you keep your mouth shut and go silently into the night or I will make your post-Presidential life a living hell. Your choice.

The man-child slinks back to Chi-town.

I’d say that is a possibility. Probability? No way to know.

Many in DC would not like their own exposure, hence it will be unlikely to become full out in the open examination.

Just my opinion, everyone has those, they may be worth what they cost, generally nothing. hee hee hee

After Jan 20th, the NSA, FBI, CIA and DOD records all belong to Trump.

Don’t think there is enough ink blotters to remove all of Obozo’s slime trail.

That's no excuse to shy away from getting started!

You misunderstood me. I meant they cannot remove their trail so we cannot send them to jail.

I believe what you say.

However, if true then the phone call went something like this.

“You’ve seen what I can do to make things difficult for you. I need assurances you will not indict me or I will unleash more devastation now and after you are inaugurated.”

This reminds me of the stupid GOPe coup attempt with the locker room tapes. They relied on Trump bowing to the pressure and voluntarily stepping down. That was a laugh out loud moment.

Again, Obama is relying on Trump backing down when the plot is so transparent. Trump has already proven he can get around the media. Obama’s actions so obviously and patently hurt America and her people that he simply can not win the argument.

The incredible shrinking MSM and spotlight on campus indoctrination; the law and order that is about to confront the BLM terrorists all render Obama and his merry band of subversives moot.

I think he continues to do this because of “community organizers” that will disrupt ceremony and then the media will pin the blame on Trump supporters.
