Obama On Protests Against Trump Executive Order: “American Values Are At Stake”
Go play golf and shut up. You are just a private citizen now. Thank goodness.
Quote:Former President Barack Obama’s office released a statement Monday supporting the protests going on around the country, and speaking out against discriminating against individuals because of their faith or religion, saying “American values are at stake.”
Kevin Lewis, spokesman for Obama in his post-presidency, said that Obama — who has been threading the balance between the tradition of presidents deferring to their successors and coming out against President Donald Trump on specific issues he considered core values — “is heartened by the level of engagement taking place in communities around the country.”
It is Obama’s first statement since leaving the White House.
“Citizens exercising their Constitutional right to assemble, organize and have their voices heard by their elected officials is exactly what we expect to see when American values are at stake,” Lewis said.

In the words of Dr. McCoy...

Barry is trying to come down over the narcissistic fix he got daily to satisfy his ego. He has to be in painful withdrawal.
