President Obama's Final Press Conference.......

[Jackie S]

I watched this today during lunch, and he tried his best to be the Statesman.

He succeed in many points, but in two major points, he failed.

The first is when he pontificated about how a open and free press was essential to a Democratic Republic. It is the Press who is supposed to be the watchdog, the Press is suppose to tell the Public the truth of what our Leaders are up too. We even give the Press a special place in Our Constitution so they can be unfettered.

But what happens when the vast majority of the "Press" back one political persuasion, and overwhelmingly are in the pocket of one political Party?

What happens when the "Press" totally ignores the criminal activity and lies of a particular candidate simply because that candidate is of the same Political Party as they, and it is left to a clandestine Internet Entity to get to the truth, and report it?

That is not "The Press". That is Pravda.

The President's second failing was when a reporter asked him point blank about the growing number of Democrats who were not attending President Elect Trumps Inaugration. This is particularilly in light of the pronouncements by Him and Hillary Clinton on this matter of accepting the results of the election, regardless of the outcome.

Of course, this was back when nobody gave President Elect Trump a snowballl's chance in hell of winning.

President Obama had a chance here to be a real Statesman, and remind his Party Members of his and Hillary's words just several months ago.

But his answer was....."I'm not commenting on that".

Party first, Country second. How else can you take his answer.

The video clip below might reveal the reason why Democrats are dodging Trump's inauguration and why Obama won't comment on it. In 2011 Obama and other Democrats hammered Trump at a Correspondence Dinner in front of a whole lot of people. In the clip it's clear to see Trump isn't a happy camper and I am sure he's thinking "I've got something for you fuckers". Five years later Trump has handed Obama and the Democrats their ass. So yeah when the going gets tough some guys fight, Democrats stay home, lol.

I find it interesting that he was filmed at the event during the roast.

Obama had one last chance to show true leadership and failed miserably.

Sad.

Sad.

He has no idea what a leader is.

[Gotyour6]

It was always about him and when called out on anything he gives the same response a salesman does. Either ignore it, deny it or not want to talk about it.

He is a sad little man with nothing. An empty suit.

The leaders of the world must be amazed at speaking with a man now and not some over inflated ego with nothing in his head.

Obamas past voting was to press the "I am here" button when voting for things.

He was and will always be useless.
He was voted in because the color of his skin. People voted for that reason only as there was no other reason he was running.

Health care is a disaster, jobs are not as what HE says they are and he is only good at telling us how great he is.

Well it's one of two things either Trump is in on this whole presidential gig or members of the Democratic party and the press deliberately and intentionally planned to film him as Obama made statements that would be demeaning and embarrassing to Trump. I don't think anything happens in politics by mere chance or accident everything is planned.

I suspect that as President Obama looks back, he realizes that he should have not done this skit on Jimmy Kimmel Live, at Trumps expense.

He was so cool. He got a huge applause, But.........
As it turns out, HILLARY CLINTON WILL NOT BE PRESIDENT.

Revenge. A dish best served cold.

After tomorrow Obama is going to wish he was never president, by the time Trump is done with Obama's so called legacy its going to resemble a cheap SNL skit, lol. Like they say "What goes around comes around", lol.
