Hopefully you’re right. I’d like to think he kept Trump in that meeting for 90 minutes to drown him in information he doesn’t understand and dazzle him with how much smarter he is than Trump.

I know you’re right. But we already have a huge problem. YUUUUUGE!

Well, someone has to go rogue and do it in a way that it is clear that Obama had nothing to do with it. Someone smarter than me needs to come up with a fool-proof plan.

I hope Obama has something up his sleeve, because I hate the rhetoric coming from him this past week. He’s like your cool, smart, sort of nerdy friend in high school who somehow is forced to help his bully with his homework and for some reason isn’t even pissed about it.

Well, as long as he isn’t a Yankees fan. :)

Yes. But, is there anything to even pardon her for? Like, just a blanket pardon for anything the Republicans can cook up that she might have done?

Can he issue an executive order that the only person who can follow him as president is someone who has experience as a [Secretary of State] [Senator] [First Lady] [human being]? (multiple choice, pick one)

Relatedly, can someone in the Obama administration destroy the records on all the undocumented folks who have DACA, and then Obama can promptly pardon that person for destroying government property?

Do you think it has occurred to him yet that upgrading is going to be a bigger pain in the ass than usual now that he’s made Melania First Lady? Maybe that’s why he’s looked so ashen this past week.

One time Trump invited me and Doug to Mar-a-Lago, the historic oceanfront mansion and club he owns in Palm Beach. He followed up by sending me pictures of the seventeen-acre property and estate. It was an invitation I would never accept, though plenty of others who hold themselves out as journalists have.

Yup, after the Trump said that line about seeking counsel from Obama and also said (I’m paraphrasing) “I look forward to being with him a lot in the future.” This is pretty clearly him saying “Shit, Obama, you need to tell me what I need to do! I’m confused and bored by everything we just talked about!” What a…

I hope you are right. But people live in such echo chambers now that I wouldn’t be surprised if Trump/Fox News blame it on the Democratic minority somehow and his supporters just believe it. They believed all of his lies and promises, so why not?

they liked Trump for something deeper and less specific than the promises he made

Booked a hotel room this morning!

In regards to Trump specifically, I think the worst is yet to come. So, yeah.

Of course he looks pained. He just got out of a 90 minute meeting with Obama in which he was bored out of his mind, couldn’t just get up and leave, had no idea what Obama was talking about half the time, and realized that Obama is way smarter and better informed than him and now he has to do his job. This is literally…

Yeah, “come together as a country” means “accept a government that hates everyone who’s not a straight white male Christian.” No, thanks.

All you need here is the headline and the picture.

Around here it’s more “You’ve been so good today you can go watch your show until dinner time.” But, yeah. Today was really one of those days because the older one was home from school. I don’t understand how people have more than two kids.

Oh, no, I totally understand what you’re saying. Mostly I was just laughing at myself for rationalizing time spent cooking as benefiting the family when, in reality, I do it because it is a chance for a break. I only work two days a week and to be perfectly honest am not really cut out for being home all day with two…
