“It is true that it gets attention. It’s true that it’s a distraction. But, as I’m traveling around the country, as you’re traveling around the country, you meet people — they still believe in decency, courtesy, kindness,” he said.

“And there’s this sort of clown show happening in social media and on television, and what is true is that there doesn’t seem to be any shame about this among people who used to feel like you had to have some sort of decorum and a sense of propriety and respect for the office. So that’s been lost,” he added.
Someone needs to read this response to the sitting president. This is what presidents are supposed to sound like, respectful and measured. He could have struck out at this WH, but he responded like and adult, instead. I really miss the class and decency of a Real President.
 
Obama is proud that he volunteered to work for Louis Farakhan
Farakhan said "White people are potential humans - they haven't evolved yet."

Or Obama could have been honest and said "the video in question was at the end of a longer video that contained references to election fraud in the 2020 election which we know is an important subject for President Trump. He claimed that was the portion he watched and did not see the animated video at the end. I will take him at his word on that."

But we know Obama is not honest, that he has been all about deception since he took office and is still working hard to divide the country and inflame Black/White Racism just like he did as President.
 
He is right about decorum. I wish Trump success but the guy I saw in his 30s during interviews would probably be shocked at how aggressive his language has been at times.

I truly believe much of this has to do with the change in political climate. His life in business was easy compared to politics, at least in regards to getting things done. With so many seeming to work against Americas success, he has to fight against those who refuse to accept that his policies won in 2024 an that is what Americans voted for.

Doesn't really matter, does it?

Just because you have a video about one thing, and sneak in a "cheeky bit of racism" at the end, doesn't make that racism any less racist.

But of course, we're used to Trump supporters excusing EVERYTHING he says.
 
You Magats are so angry that Obama was a President that actually spoke in complete sentences and never called anyone a loser or a moron.

The Felon is an embarrassment to manhood. He is running the federalist government like a Mob Boss. China loves him because he is pushing our allies to trade with them.

Or, perhaps, Trump had this way of working in business and it worked for him, because people chase the money will do everything he wanted.

But in politics, it doesn't work because you need to be DIPLOMATIC and Trump simply can't be bothered. So he looks like a total fool.

The reality is, a lot of those people who are really successful in business are like that because they're just huge assholes who would kill their own grandmothers to make a dime.

Trump can be diplomatic, he has been so often. It is just that not unlike Elon Musk who pulled his hair out trying to fix government, Trump does not have the patience to wait as career politicians act without urgency. RFK joked about how Trump would call him constantly to get the pharma deal done and he did due to this push from Trump.

He wants action and gets offended when he thinks about unsuccessful politicians. He just needs to say the same thing with different words as he might in the 80s. He can call guys incompetent, ineffective, failed America etc, just not the stronger words.

As for the post. Notice how it took away from the video which discussed the Dominion Voting machines of 2020? They use a 2 second clip at the end which he didnt see and did in fact delete.

As many have said on Twitter "he needs to repost it but without the silly part at the end which he wasnt aware of when he posted it"

How is that video racist ? Demeaning sure, since apes are lower intellect, but racist ? I don't get that ? Using ape or monkey bodies could just as easily be done to white people, no ?

Obama has a more optimistic view of this country than MAGA has

It's the same guy. He is the one working against American success, and the policies he is implementing are not what peple voted for. Nobody wanted Project 2025. His life in business was handed to him by his father. He filed bankruptcy 6 times. He lost almost 1 billion dollars and was deemed the worst businessman in America.

Do not try to argue untill you read the links.

Says the Trojan Horse President who served 3 terms and fucked this country up beyond repair.

That video, even before the monkeys, was a load of crap. Fox had to pay $700 million to Dominion for lying about the voting machines. So nothing was taken away from the video an he did see the monkeys. Do not believe him when he says he didn't.

The Dominion case was only a matter of 93 year old Murdoch not being pysically able to go to court. And so what is the big deal about the monkeys ? (actually they were apes). People refer to other people as being of lower intellect all the time. So ?
