What's up with the Birtherism nonsense again?

Is it because Obama taking a spotlight on the world stage? Won't work you Orange POS trying to invalidate him, Obama is widely loved, while you are seen as a bumbling illiterate fool with no grasp on reality or ability to govern

WASHINGTON — Now a private citizen, former President Barack Obama re-emerged on the global stage Tuesday as he opened a three-country tour that includes meetings with the leaders of China and India, just as President Donald Trump courts those same world powers.

During a five-day trip, Obama will mix paid speeches with foreign leader meetings and even a town hall event for young people, the signature event that Obama became known for around the world during his eight years in office. He’ll finish the trip in France, where he’ll give one of several speeches planned during the trip.

The tour continues a longstanding tradition of former U.S. presidents traveling overseas after leaving office, especially as they work to attract donations and other support for their foundations, libraries and presidential centers. But Obama’s trip may garner particular attention, given that many foreign countries are still uncertain about Trump’s foreign policy and may look to his predecessor to help explain America’s current direction.

4. It's dino rock

Those bands from the 1970s and 1980s that continue to tour. Long past their prime, they still command top dollar for choice venues because of fan nostalgia for the songs they know so well. Some of the members have retired or died (viz. Bannon, Scaramucci, et al), but as long as the lead singer is there and they have a guitarist who can play the popular licks, the fans will come. No need to write or play new songs (in fact, their fans don't want new or different songs), just play the old tunes.

Trump is the lead singer. He's lost a few notes on the high and the low end, but he still belts out the standards: "Obama the Kenyan" has been a fan favorite for years. He's not about to stop singing it now.

leaving office."

Not for George W. Bush. He won't visit any countries overseas because he might be arrested for war crimes.

6. I think Obama will go out there and

Try to ease the tension with our foreign allies since Trump has FUCKED up some relations. He may be telling them to hang on because we plan on getting this embarrassment out of office asap.
