Let's see him "White-Out" the Nobel Prize and the Oscar too.

that trumpie and his ilk are still outraged that a Black gentleman could be president - forget doing it with grace, class, wisdom, empathy, intelligence and style. That President Obama outdoes trumpie in every single category, must really frost his fries.

This whole shit show is about next weekends Video Graduation live event happening on multiple TV channels honoring the Graduates from Schools in Chicago and else ware. Featuring Barack Obama,Lebron James doing a Commencement for High School Seniors.

So the Orange Anus feels slighted by two successful African Americans whom want to congratulate American Seniors on completing their High School Education.

So West Point Cadets have to tolerate the Orange King while the Nations Graduating Seniors get a couple of Rock Stars as Commencement Speakers.

So predictable,so Shallow,so Petty,so Vindictive.

I have thought this all along. The unforgivable affront; making fun of Trump and everyone laughing at him. He decided then to make Obama disappear.

I still come upon comments from time to time from that type of fool on Huff Post or some other site where some knob complains about how oppressed they were during the Obama years. ("I can get cheaper health insurance - oh, the horror, the horror!" )

It probably goes without saying that these are the same idjits now protesting lockdowns or, as Trump calls them, "very fine people". Heck, he's one of them - fools, damned fools, complete idiots and maroons. Conspiracy theory loons. Idiocracy is here.

My NYC area uncle, aunts and cousins were calling him a buffoon for the better part of 40 years ago. He was instrumental, if not the main culprit, in the demise of the USFL. See the linked articles below on the USFL anti-trust suit against the NFL (and I'm no fan of the NFL business model - corrupt as hell). Anything in any of these articles sound familiar? (And I don't think this failure is included amongst his many bankruptcies.)

of Chump's early beginnings, share their sentiment. We lived on CT near the NY border, and all our news stations came out of NY so we were well aware of this young shyster as he was coming on the scene. Tales of his unwarranted foreclosures, evictions, schemes, etc. seeped out on a regular basis.

Unfortunately, most of the remainder of the country weren't aware of him until "The Apprentice" made him a reality TV star. All they saw or knew of him was as a "successful billionaire" that seemed to be in control. What others didn't know was that Chump was merely the product of selective and extensive editing.

He's Mark Burnett's creation, and is still trying to play the role.
