    With latest jabs, Trump-Obama relationship reaches historic nastiness

    From CNN

    'It's a long-distance feud, transmitted over the airwaves and on social media, that's now devolved well beyond a small political spat.

    For President Donald Trump and his predecessor, Barack Obama, the animosity that started years ago has never waned, except for a month-long period during the presidential transition.
    Now, the current and former president are carrying out the nastiest public dispute in modern presidential history, one that began on deeply personal terms and which now plays out nearly every time Trump finds a policy he dislikes or a perceived double standard.
    The acrimony is largely one-sided; while Obama has not made a direct assault on Trump's character since last year's presidential campaign concluded, Trump has steadily increased his stinging criticism of Obama.
    This week, it was the previous administration's response to Russian election hacking that drew Trump's ire. Last week, it was his signature health care law. Since the final time they spoke on Inauguration Day, Trump has lit into Obama over his handling of North Korean hostages, his decision to join the Paris climate accord and his policy toward Cuba.
    And then there's his baseless accusation that Obama ordered wiretapping at Trump Tower, a charge he never fully explained and which he's not yet retracted.
    "He was very nice to me but after that we've had some difficulties," Trump said nonchalantly to a CBS interviewer last month. "So it doesn't matter. Words are less important to me than deeds. You saw what happened with surveillance, and everybody saw what happened with surveillance."

    Dude, at this point I'm ready to start the rumor that Dumbass Dump asked Obama out on a date and was denied, and Dumb-Dumb Donnie couldn't handle being rejected by him. :P

    Seriously, his actions are more of some guy who can't handle being snubbed for a date than somebody who was... was... I honestly can't think of anything really that Obama did to Dumbass Donnie that requires this level of vitriol! (Without playing the race card, which I'm really not trying to..)

    Idiot vs Stateman - what a contest. Petulant 10-year-old vs adult. I'm not sure that a relationship exists at this point. Bush43 is probably calling Obama up going "At this point, I don't know what the fuck this guy is doing."

    The comparison between the two is beyond stunning. For instance: Obama, while in Europe, on a rare evening "off" - brought 10 of the brightest minds in the world together for dinner, just to chat and absorb. Trump, while hosting tech moguls/ceo's, was so confused about the topic, he had to make fun of the Bezos' owned WaPo just to cover himself.

    Is paranoia sufficient medical reason to declare a POTUS unfit to perform his duties?

    Obama could drag that out for years. "Find all the wire tapps yet, Donald?"

    Put up a website with a video stream of an empty room at whitehousewiretapps.com. Every so often have a Trump impersonator walk by. He'd rip the building apart looking for it.

    It was already proven that he did have him wire tapped... Not sure how he could play it out...

    Fascinating claim, what evidence are you basing this assertion on?

    Do you have links specifically? Because I've sure not seen shit that indicated that in the slightest.

    Unless you're confusing the intelligence community monitoring Russian communications and catching them talking with Trump folks as "wire tapping Trump", which is hilariously incorrect.

    Unless he means the NSA and other intelligence agencies looking into him during the election campaign then IDK what the fuck is confirmed or not.

    More OT there was no chance in hell that those two would ever have a working relationship. And as with everything involving Donny, it's all his fault things are this fucked up. At this point I can't wait to see what Trump accuses Obama of next, maybe it'll have some substance behind it or at least be an accurate criticism, but I doubt it.

    we know the FBI was monitoring Trump Tower, because they suspected foreign agents were there or were communicating with people there

    the idea that obama personally ordered a trump wiretap has always been lol

    Having to clean up after Barry Hussien and his supposed "wife" is a little too much to ask of anyone.

    No wonder the classy and gorgeous First Lady Melania Trump wanted to wait to move in. She probably wanted the White House to be aired out a bit.

    What do you mean by "supposed 'wife'"? And clean up in what way?

    So you are body shaming a woman now?

    I thought you "progressives" were all about women's choices, and empowering women to love their body......

    Did you see how thoroughly Obama roasted Trump at all of the white house correspondents dinners? After Donnie Dump pushed all of those conspiracies about Obama, Obama fought back.

    The Trumpkins complain that Obama is just mean to Donald, but they seem to forget history, that it's Dump who started the war. Obama just continued it... and kept on winning.

    This is hilariously disingenuous given how much your panties are in a pretzel over Michelle.
