That enough to start with?
rwood
Yeah exactly!
Yeah good point.
There were scandals, we just weren’t allowed to talk about them, because if we did, we were......wait for it....RASCIST! That’s right kids, if the dude in the white house is black, he is immune from anything!!!!
The entire Kenyanesian Usurpation was a scandal.
Exactly. They could have barbecued a thousand new born babies a day, on the White House lawn, and it wouldn’t have embarrassed those ass hats. They champion evil. Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil.
“Former President Barack Obama denied that his administration had any scandals that embarrassed him or his team”
That is because Obamadork and his entire administration were a gang of amoral reprobates who did not possess the character required to feel embarrassment.
Remember the Progressive media decide what is a scandal, and what is not.
The standard definition is: if the Washington Post says it is a scandal, then it is a scandal.
The Progressives have operated off of that definition for decades.
7. Biggest one of all: You were born in British Columbia, Canada, to an American teen mom not old enough to confer citizenship upon you. Not only were you not natural born, you never naturalized so you have never been an American citizen. Only as a US Senator were you given a ceremonial passport to conduct official travel. Until this time you traveled abroad as an Indonesian. Indonesia paid for your US college education and you actually answered, on your college applications, the question of “Are you an American citizen?” by checking the box marked NO. Hawaii would not certify your eligibility for the presidency. Nancy Pelosi and you are the ones who signed off on your eligibility. You knew you were never a citizen because you forged your selective service form and used, since the age of 16, the social security numbers of other people.
Not just a scandal, that last, but the biggest scandal a President has ever perpetrated upon the People.

2. Speaking Austrian in Austria
3. The inhaler...intubator...er..inhalator.
Your entire presidency was an embarrassment.
To be embarrassed, you have to be capable of honest self evaluation and feeling shame. Obama and his crowd don’t know shame.
Of couse not. People who are totally dishonest and totally shameless can’t be embarrassed.
Standing ovation.
