Obama To Get Revenge For GOP Obstruction By Leading The Resistance Against Trump

[CousinIT]

. . .Politico reported on the efforts by Obama staff to build a Trump resistance. What was most interesting was the support they are getting from the current president:

“The president is committed to staying in touch with this group with some regularity in the months and years ahead,” Obama’s former campaign manager David Plouffe told OFA members on the call. In fact, Plouffe added, after the disastrous election results, “We’ll have to do it a little more frequently.”

….

For some, it’s been hard to tolerate Obama’s measured tone about Trump, when they see so much at stake. He has acknowledged that he’s biting his tongue to help facilitate a smooth transition, but has promised to rejoin the fight after Inauguration Day.

“I’ve got all kinds of thoughts and ideas about it, but this isn’t the best time to share them,” Obama said. “Point is, I’m still fired up and I’m still ready to go.

President Obama is fulfilling his current duty of delivering a smooth transition of power to the next administration, but one he returns to being a private citizen, the soon to be former president plans to join the fight against Trump.

Obama gets back to his community organizer roots - skills which won him two Presidential terms. If he truly does this, I hope we'll all do our parts to be part of this movement, presided over by the Community Organizer in Chief!

1. I think he will continue to do us proud!

2. Obama: Still showing the class that we have loved for the last 8 years!

3. If I knew that Obama was specifically organizing grassroots AND he's smart

enough to exclude the dickweed local Florida Democrats who join hands with their Republican golf buddies and fellow Rotarians to defraud us of our rights, I would be there for him.

5. Efforts to fight Trump not pure enough for you? Gosh thanks.

10. Bettyellen, if he wants to win Florida, he is going to have to weed out the Florida leaders

who are dividing us because of their selfish interests. Once you get them out of the way, you have a clear line to the Republicans. No one to cover their backs.

Time to do something different, don't you think?

12. You can't do both? Not getting this "conditional" support thing, sorry. If we all did that we'd

Be fractured beyond repair. Sometimes we need to do two things at once.

13. I would love to help Obama. But I can't help thinking that there are far more who are capable of

selling access to their ample social networks, and that would trump anything that I have to trade with.

Doesn't take a brain surgeon to figure out who loses in that equation.

8. It would great for him to join the "Our Revolution" agenda

ANY and ALL assistance in opposition to dumpman is appreciated, needed and absolutely necessary.

4. More vile hatred from the right expected. More than ever I fear.

Be prepared to confront some real horror stuff now.

6. This came through in the excellent New Yorker

Interview. He definitely intends to stay engaged. I think he's the perfect one to lead the resistance. Almost like a shadow President. Remember, he has a 57% approval rating. He can troll Donald through his whole presidency. Return the favor. I do fear for his safety.

7. hopefully our resistance group

will be just that, a national resistance group. The reason the Nazi Party gained it's strong foothold was THE FACT that german resistance "consisted of small, usually isolated groups". Wikapedia....We are going to have to be large and committed obstructionists to the new fuhrer and Sessions, the old stars and bars KKK guy.

I have really been fighting myself for the last two weeks. When that little devil on my right shoulder whispers in my ear, "fuck ameriKKKa and ameriKKKans. They deserve everything they voted for".

When my angel appears on my left shoulder and whispers in my ear, "fight evil and the KKK stars and bars people. You still have your right to try to destroy this evil. So do it". Maybe a group like is mentioned here will be the personification of my angel. Who knows....certainly, not I. Go Obama!!!! You will always be a hero of mine along with your classy wife and family. * years, scandal free. And this incoming disaster is scandal laden.

9. I hope Obama will run for the Senate

... either Obama.

[dixiegrrrrl]

11. Depends on several things

1. If they want to

2. Where they live at the time.

I don't see Obama going from Pres. to Senator, but Hillary, as wife of a past Pres. did stay in politics.
Mrs. Obama may prefer to use her considerable talent and smarts in other areas, tho.
