3. And the interview was intelligible

[newdeal2]

4. And he could say the player names

Even the international ones!

And when he made fun of Reggie, he also paid him a compliment.

12. That's the first thing I noticed

The crowd respected him

[misanthrope]

6. I think these appearances are invaluable right now

They serve as a fantastic reminder to Americans of what it was like to have an emotionally mature adult with a healthy sense of humor as POTUS. Every time Americans can see this stuff, it makes the current POTUS shrink in comparison.

7. Oh, god I miss that man so much!

He is a beautiful human being!

9. I thought the same thing the whole interview..how I miss him 🥲

8. I watched the interview and as always when I hear President Obama talk I think how the fuck do we have Trump

And then sadly I remember how white rednecks just can't stand the fact the the Obama's are intelligent, classy and attractive. It weighs on them to no end that the Obamas are living a wonderful life.

Goddamn, do I miss the Obama years.

14. The Obama administration saved our country

[Sogo]

10. A great man!

Boy, do we miss that caliber of President!!

13. Mischievous suggestion to the Democratic leadership

If Trump carries through his threat to unconstitutionally run for a third term, and the Republican on the Supreme Court rubber stamp it , it really screw with Trumps brain if Obama then announced he was going to run in the Democratic primary. If the Republicans got their pet Justices to exclude Obama but not Trump it would at least show what a bunch of hypocrites and charlatans the conservative majority on the Supreme Court is for all to see. That their real Rule of Law comes down to a simple rule "Its legal if a Republican does it."
