in the WH now could see this so he can become more unbalanced in his mental illness and jealousy over a better human being and POTUS than he shall ever be. History is NOT going to be a friend of the evil human being running/ruining this country now....

which would you prefer to console you - Obama or tRump? I would not want the orange disaster within striking distance of me anytime. I LOATHE everything about him, and his despicable family, too. Poorest excuse for a human being to EVER enter the WH.

^ I've seen these tweets from Trump twits.

Of course Obama wasn't President then.
But even still, as a senator, he made his way down and fought for the federal money they should have been entitled to.

"This really steams me up," Obama says when begins to talk about Washington's requirement that we put up $1 for every $10 received. "This isn't in the prepared remarks." He mentions the forgiveness shown New York and Florida, which he argues communicated, "We're not going to wait for you to scratch it together - because you're a part of the American family."

"What's happening down in New Orleans? 'Where's your dollar? Where's your Stafford Act money?' Makes no sense....Tells me somehow the people down in New Orleans, they don't care about as much."

Did you read the "quote" that was part of what PRESIDENT OBAMA (yes, I know, he wasn't president, but he certainly EARNED that title!) said was NOT a part of the prepared remarks? NOT PREPARED REMARKS!!!!!

Have you watched dRump's staff EVERY TIME he goes near a microphone? And, yes, it ALWAYS is something that they have to send out 20 people within the next 24 hours to "explain," "clarify," and "correct" because the ASS cannot put together one single coherent thought, let alone a sentence - and has NO UNDERSTANDING of whatever the topic of the moment is, nor a plan for what to do about it!!!!

...who were slaughtered, and he went to Charletown to hug the families of the victims of Dylann Roof, and did this at their memorial service (sorry, he's not the best singer, but THE best President):
