[yuiyoshida]

42. oh yeah

He is probably seething at this point! Good! Fuck you Trump!

[sheshe2]

43. +1000

[raising2moredems]

48. Obama deserved it!

And donny-boy will be obsessed for months, if not years, to come. Greta is likely to win the Nobel Peace prize. Yet another thing to piss off they boy. I never thought I'd see an Adolph Hitler in the White House. Yet I do.

[sheshe2]

50. I don't have any hearts left.

This will have to do.

[smirkymonkey]

55. Oh, that is going to chap his ass real good!

And I am loving every second of it!

[Midnight Writer]

51. Investigation time!

[Kurt V.]

2. wow. did he accept in person?

[nolabear]

8. The doc they produced won. They didn't accept.

I cheered!

[Kurt V.]

14. ah. ok. woooooooo ! 😃

[sheshe2]

17. I understand that. nt

[sheshe2]

12. Sadly, no.

[Kurt V.]

18. that would have been epic. Awesome none the less.

[sheshe2]

20. Have you watched the Trailor?

It was amazing. It will be coming out on Netflix in August, if I remember correctly.

[Kurt V.]

22. no. i rarely watch tv at all. I'm still on Adam 12 reruns. Marijuana bad. lol.

[sheshe2]

23. Ha!

Someone posted the link below. Lol~ I am to lazy to retrieve it.

[mcar]

34. It's been on Netflix for months, she

We watched it late 2019. It's excellent. Do catch it when you can.

[sheshe2]

36. Dayum.

I will, mcar. Thanks.

[Brother Buzz]

41. If you run over to Netflix to watch, don't miss the ten minute Netflix video of....

Michael and Barrack having a refreshing talk with Julia Reichert and Steve Bognar. It's Julia's and Steve's film, for sure, but all are totally on the same page; four people speaking intelligently, talking in full sentences. Times have been better.

[sheshe2]

44. Thanks.

[ismnotwasm]

3. Whoa!

[sheshe2]

24. IKR

[muntrv]

4. Hope Trump has an aneurysm over this.

[blm]

5. So happy.

[marlakay]

6. What for?

I got home and it had been on for 35 min.

[underpants]

[Coventina]

7. I can't wait to read Trump's sour grapes about that!

[lpbk2713]

9. Fuck you Trump.

And fuck Limbaugh's bogus award too.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

10. Great!

His Lardship is gonna blow a gasket. I expect a barrage of rage-tweets by morning.

[WyattKansas]

15. Of all the times donnie imposed himself on movies...

Obama won an Oscar the honorable way.

[Ohiogal]

16. Shit storm of trash tweets coming right up

The widdle snow fwake is so jealous of Obama it’s ridiculous.

[halobeam]

19. YAY!!!

[Heartstrings]

21. Yaaaaaaaaay!

[frazzled]

25. To be accurate, Julia Reichert and Steve Bognar won the Oscar

The directors win (not the production company). But congrats to everyone involved.
Obama has great taste in film (make it a point to watch the films on his top movies list for this year: they’re better than most of the Oscar nominees.)

Reichert and Bognar are long time respected documentarians.

[sheshe2]

27. Sigh.

I get that. Thanks for the tiny bit of joy I had tonight.

Fact is if producers do not produce, then directors would not direct and a film would never have been made.

[stonecutter357]

26. K&R

[Mrs. Overall]

28. And, remember that Michelle won a Grammy a couple of weeks ago!

True winners!

[Zolorp]

29. The Obamas have won numerous awards!

A Nobel Peace Prize
2 Grammies
and now an Oscar

Trump was nominated twice for an Emmy. Lost both times.

[machoneman]

59. Wow! Yes, we need a pic of both Obamas holding all the awards with big smiles! The Don....

...will go crazy! LOL

[LAS14]

63. What was the second Grammy for? nt

[Zolorp]

64. Michelle just won one for her audiobook

Barack win one years ago for the Audacity of Hope audiobook.

[LAS14]

66. Thanks! I didn't know Barack had also won one. nt

[edbermac]

30. Technically no.

The film’s producers won it.

[sheshe2]

32. Technically

As I have said to the other negativity here and those that wish to tamp down my pride in this President.

Fact.

Fact is if producers do not produce, then directors would not direct and a film would never have been made.

Night.

[OilemFirchen]

37. she, you're a sweetheart and the Obamas are a national treasure...

but Julia and Steve finished the film in 2017. Higher Ground acquired it in April of last year. All are due kudos.

Julia, BTW, is an esteemed filmmaker, dating back to 1970:

[sheshe2]

39. Thanks.

[GReedDiamond]

56. Correct. And the producers who accepted the award never...

...even mentioned the Obamas or their role in the film. But their acceptance speech was great.

"Workers of the World: Unite!"

In any case, unless the actual recipients of the Oscars turn them over to Michelle and Barack, the Obamas do not get Oscar trophys.

[mcar]

33. It was a great doc!

Congratulations to the Obamas.

This is going to make IMPOTUS' head blow off and I am here for it.

[sheshe2]

35. In 3...2..1

[TheFourthMind]

45. Ha! "Technically....." n/t

[DinahMoeHum]

38. Tee hee! It's gonna be fun to see 45's tweeting tirade.

[George II]

40. Gonna burn the orange turd.

[Grokenstein]

46. Aw, poor Generalissimo Corpulente's gonna have feelings.

"I don't know why we can't just use nukes!"

If the guy wasn't so...so DARK, he might console himself by having Convicted Felon Dinesh (anyone remember him?) make a mockumentary chronicling his lifelong victory over the forces of Those Who Don't Like Him. You know, like they make about Kim way over there in North Dakota.

[bdamomma]

47. When

you're good you're good.

Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!

[LudwigPastorius]

49. Obama's halfway to an EGOT, and he joins Al Gore in being 2/3rds of the way to an ONK.

All he needs is an Emmy win, a Tony, and a (honorary) Knighthood.

I bet the orange toad squatting in the White House is choking on his own bile right about now!

Delicious...

[wnylib]

53. Would be great if the Brits would

make Obama an honorary knight. They have no love for the WH mobster. But they are looking for trade deals with the US and probably would not want to risk the international incident that the mobster make of it.

[krissey]

52. Ahhh, yea Obama. Another moment that pissed off Trump. Love it.

[Baked Potato]

54. Big Piss Wig is gonna rage tweet some jealous crap for days

[Grokenstein]

57. Big Piss Wig!!

Oh, I love that.

[Baked Potato]

65. Hee hee

[Stellar]

58. So now Trump has to find a way to win an Oscar.

[MarianJack]

60. Good for President Obama, and...

...for the so easily triggered Dolt45, tough tittie toenails!

RESIST!

[rsdsharp]

61. That's three Academy awards in the Obama family, in three tries,

with Barack half way to the EGOT. ZERO for Trump, with one failed nomination.

[Bonx]

62. Amazing! I didn't even know he was in the running for an Oscar, and BAM he wins one!!!

[Rider3]

67. LOL!

Can you imagine Trump's face when he heard that? hahahaaaaaa!

[Cha]

68. Brilliant!

Mahalo, she.. I discovered this when I was looking for something else..

Michelle and Barack Obama~Oscar Winners!
