I have heard that you can measure the extent of a person's ego by the number of times they use first person, 'I', or make self-referential compliments. An additional 'tell' is how they look at others and at crowds.

Obama continues to be 'guilty' of the first, even in his post-presidency speeches. However, it took him a long time in the Presidency to where he stopped looking down his nose at his adoring public. It gave me the chills to see what his body language was saying!

“Suddenly America is the largest oil producer, that was me, people

He’s got a point there. By choking off conventional oil production, he forced the development of the horizontal drilling/fracking technology.

Things must be looking fairly dismal as far as retaining the black voting bloc in 2020, for Obama to be popping his head up and taking credit for something he very obviously did his best to kill while President. They have to know he’s going to be mocked for that, but hey, mocking Obama might motivate that voting bloc back in their direction. Hell, if they’re desperate enough they’ll try to run him again, make a huge scene when he’s forced out, foment riots. That threat was key during Obama’s tenure anyway, why not fire it back up.

Warren Buffett lost over a billion dollars in one year trying to run up gas prices while Bush was president.

Can I assume this was that tactic to make oil plentiful and reduce the prices that made him successful:

This guy is obviously a genius in the handling of oil reserves. No one can use them because he tied them up. And that’s why he made so much money for the government coffers. Unfortunately he spent it faster than they could steal it.

Definitely a time of doom and gloom during the time of the wun.

I had crap job that paid little but it beat nothing. It was actually better in some respects than the job I had at a university.

0 luv for the wun or any other dim-o-crat. I hate them all.

When gas approached $4 a gallon during the Obama admin, “””

APPROACHED ??? It was over $5 a gallon under Obama, and in some counties in N Nevada & in Calif it was WELL OVER $5 a gallon.

I wonder what he is going to say when his name is on a number of those sealed indictments.
