In defining speech, Obama takes down Trump, his politics and enablers; warns of dire consequences...
ABC "News" ^ | 7 Sep 18 | Stephanie Ebbs

In an urgent and defining speech today, former President Barack Obama set himself up as a heavyweight counterpoint on the campaign trail to President Donald Trump -- as both men make plans to vigorously support their party’s candidates in the final two months of the midterm elections.

Obama delivered his message at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign campus, and implored students to vote, saying that a look at recent headlines shows that "this moment is different.”

I have never read such wishful thinking. All Obozo does is remind us how lucky we are now. I want to remind you that Obazo was in on the attempt at the silent coup on the man we elected. He was very much an unindicted co conspirator. I am hearing that indictments are now sealed against many— not just McCabe. Obama is very close to criminal activity and treason. .

Is this the speech where he told Christians to “get of your high horse” about Islamic terrorism, because of the Crusades?

“In an urgent and defining speech today, former President Barack Obama set himself up as a heavyweight counterpoint on the campaign trail to President Donald Trump”

Internal Dem polling must be revealing panic-inducing numbers if obama is having to involve himself in an “urgent” fashion as a “heavyweight counterpoint”to President Trump.

Go for it, Barry!! You campaigned in 2016 against Trump and he kicked your skinny @ss. The 2016 election results weren’t just a rejection of Cankles, they were also a referendum on you and your pathetic failed presidency.

Trump isn’t afraid to take him on. He should call him an empty suit who politicized the Justice department and bugged his campaign.

Barack Obama wouldn't be a heavyweight even if he had Michelle on his back.

“...dire consequences...” ?

Hmmmmmm

“”Our ideals that say we have a collective responsibility to care for the sick and the infirm,” he said. “And we have a responsibility to conserve the amazing bounty, the natural resources of this country, and of this planet for future generations.” “

Collective....? from each according to his gifts to each according to his needs? enforced by a benevolent government that obviously knows better than us poor, less educated, less enlightened, but free folk. Sounds so very USSR. Russia was socialist, not communist as socialism is ENFORCED BY THE CENTRAL GOVERNMENT, but in a commune, everyone wants to be there.

Wish he’d stayed off the stage....out of the country....off the planed?
