His taxpayer-funded time on the lam is supposedly coming to an end since the DOJ hasn't yet filed charges against him. It's believed he's stashed raw diamonds, millions in Euros, and has a plastic surgeon lined up pin his jumbo ears back against his nappy head. He's probably in Chicago to get a new toofbrush and some cocaine from Rahm.
WASHINGTON — Barack Obama’s extended post-presidential vacation is about to end. After spending weeks in French Polynesia — including time on the yacht of the movie mogul David Geffen along with Bruce Springsteen, Tom Hanks and Oprah Winfrey — Mr. Obama will return to Chicago on Monday for his first public event as a former president.
Mr. Obama has also concluded that his voice is not essential in the daily back-and-forth. His aides note that a new level of civic activism among Democrats eager to challenge Mr. Trump has emerged without much encouragement from the former leader of the Democratic Party. And many of Mr. Trump’s attacks on Obama-era policies — like the Affordable Care Act — have so far failed or stalled.
Instead, Mr. Obama is preparing remarks that focus on broader themes he hopes will keep him above the cable-television combat and the Capitol Hill debates: civic engagement, the health of the planet, the need for diplomacy, civil rights and the development of a new generation of young American leaders.
“Trump becomes a distraction from what he wants to do,” said Kevin Lewis, a spokesman for Mr. Obama.
