Fox Complains That The Obamas Will Not Be Classy Enough To Donald Trump
Judging from the all the whining at Fox, Republicans must be mighty worried about President Obama’s plan to stay active in politics during the Trump/Pence administration. So the all-conservative panel on Outnumbered did a little pre-smearing of President Obama’s post-presidency treatment of Donald Trump. Because, you know, Trump has been so respectful to Obama.
The segment started with a nasty introduction from Kennedy: “Future Recruiter-in-Chief?” she sneered, before explaining that Obama wants to help scout future talent for the Democratic Party. Kennedy added, “Finding those Elián Gonzálezes and all the other future commies. This has some asking if Mr. Obama will follow the example of former presidents and stay out of the limelight post-presidency. I think that’s a fantastic idea.”
Kennedy went on to praise George W. Bush for how he has handled himself post-presidency. She didn’t point out that Bush is quite unpopular whereas Obama is quite popular with the public.
Trumper cohost Lisa Boothe complained that Obama could cause “gridlock” for the Trump administration and not be “classy” like Bush. As if Republicans didn’t do their darnedest to cause gridlock for Obama.
