Someone said this on another board. I need to refute if possible.

(11,605 posts)Some unofficial site that lists campaign schedules seems to have taken down POTUS' scheduled speeches, then put them back. This is a supporter site so I have no idea why they did that, but it was probably unrelated. Nevertheless, Freepers seized on it.

(32,086 posts)--if it even happened? These assholes spent the last 8 years constantly bitching about President Obama engaging in activities that allegedly "keep him from his duties." I am surprised that they are not having one massive conniption over his campaigning for Hillary, and even more shocked that they are making a massive issue out of the allegation that he might have cancelled out on a couple of events instead. These nutjobs don't even know what they are supposed to be outraged over.

(37,452 posts)On 28 October 2016, the disreputable web site SuperStation 95 published an article reporting that President Obama had cancelled all upcoming appearances at Hillary Clinton campaign events due to the FBI's announcement that they were reviewing additional emails potentially connected to the Democratic presidential candidate's email server:
But SuperStation 95 is not the online arm of any legitimate radio news outlet. Rather, it's a site for the fabricated conspiracy-driven rantings of convicted felon Hal Turner, who was sentenced to prison for threatening to kill three federal judges.

(413 posts)President's Schedules are prioritized according to tge needs of the Nation and as important as Hillary's Campaign is to us the President can't stop running the Country to campaign for her.
Short answer, he's canceled appearances but I highly doubt it's because of the investigation and anyone saying that's he reason has absolutely no evidence supporting that.
No matter what comes of all of this we need to support Hillary even if others jump ship.

(413 posts)I was at the event in Orlando yesterday and he was electric.
The last thing we need is for even the appearance of anyone distancing themselves from Hillary.
If anything is in the coming two weeks just remember that the President has a job to do and the only reason he'd cancel or reschedule any appearance is because he absolutely had to.
Now back to winning the election
