Maybe Obama should not have made that zinger about him running as a joke. Ended up losing his legacy and possibly his entire party. Rekt.

History will record Obama's achievements; as well as Trump's impeachment. And the party is intact; just struggling to return to the republican values of 1950.

Actually it has been struggling to save itself from the radical left wing Justice Democrats takeover.

Yeah, well even in 2012 he wasn't joking about running even though pundits and other supposed experts thought it was some kind of promotional marketing for the apprentice.

He was going to run in 2012 and bowed out around May of 2012 from campaign because with much pressure he had forced Obama to produce a birth certificate. A birth certificate which some still say is fake.

Press release in 2012

"This decision does not come easily or without regret; especially when my potential candidacy continues to be validated by ranking at the top of the Republican contenders in polls across the country. I maintain the strong conviction that if I were to run, I would be able to win the primary and ultimately, the general election. I have spent the past several months unofficially campaigning and recognize that running for public office cannot be done half heartedly. Ultimately, however, business is my greatest passion and I am not ready to leave the private sector."

So were you get that he originaly ran as a joke that he started is beyond reality and whether you actually mean 2012 or 2016 it is a lie. Fake .

Nothing about Donald is not fake.

Impeachment is the first time he has ever been held accountable.

He's grifting through life unimpeded anyway. The difference is now we're paying for it.

Nope, he works for free. We aren't paying him a dime.

He returns his $100,000 quarterly salary and we pick up the tab of $114,000,000 in golfing excursions. He's never "worked" a day in his life.

That's part of the package of being president. Total up Obama's golfing and salary and find the difference.

Trump golfed more in his first three months than Obama did in all eight years.

He steers government business to his hotels and charges top dollar at taxpayer expense.

You do realize all politicians do that. He was simply following suit. He also offered discount rates and free.

What other Presidents have owned luxury hotels?

What discount rates and free? You want proof of him breaking the emoluments clause? It's in front of your eyes every day. If YOU are unable to see, it is not our responsibility to heal the blind.

Please supply an example of other presidents booking public functions at their own hotels, and charging private functions to the taxpayers.

Indeed. We already know Trump has ripped off people with "Trump University" and his fake "charities".
