Little three inch rulers along with their diapers, ear maxipads, and JDVance jizz cups. They are too stupid to realize that we are laughing at them, not with them.

Favreau, on YouTube, said he kept taking out that bit in an effort to "tighten up" the speech but Obama kept putting it back in. Then, when Obama did the hands thing, Favreau said he almost fell off his chair because that's something he'd never seen Obama do. It was an entertaining interview.

say that, while doing the hands shrinking in together at the same time and yelled out laughing. It was a masterpiece. It goes to show all of us (and we already know it) that Pres. Obama is smart and sharp w/ the tongue, and he certainly nailed tRUMPkoff w/ the insult, which I think will be remembered for a long time!

If the orange menace saw it he would be furious. I loved how President Obama punched him in a hilarious way!

... humiliated by Obama, who isn't even a citizen of this country or a good homespun Christian, while Obama was speaking on national TV.

Pay back is like a overripe brown mushy banana mashed in your face.
Just for the fun of it all.
