He knows every word he says can result in the suffering or death of millions at the hands of trump

I wish we would do something about this, but I bet we wont

Many things could have and SHOULD have happened to keep this unbalanced narcissist out of the White House, even if he only ran because he wanted to show up the black President.

And there are many things ANYONE could say to set Trump off.

President Obama is not obligated to intervene, not that he could do anything that would bring Trump, his administration, or the GOP to heel.

He tried his best to warn voters away from the GOP, and then from Trump when he got the nomination.

This is the GOP's monster, and the American people didn't muster the turnout to stop him. The President did what he could.

he is willing to destroy the earth to get back at Obama.

I am an Obama supporter who worked on both campaigns.

then Trump can see that Obama has millions more followers than he does. It would make him smash his head repeatedly against a wall.

Just wait, Trump is gonna burn Twitter up tonight! He's probably been waiting on an excuse to call President O weak and a bunch of other 'nasty' things. But President O will not take the bait and get into a Twitter fight with President Dump. He's too cool and level-headed for such nonsense. Man, I miss him!

...and I know *supposedly* a previous POTUS does not like to speak out and muddy the waters for the new, incoming POTUS, but as I said, THESE ARE NOT TYPICAL TIMES. tRump* is a disaster of unprecedented proportions for our Country happening right before our eyes. Bush* did not want to say anything about Obama's Presidency, not out of respect, but because he was a dumb as a fucking stump and had NOTHING useful to say. This is NOT THE CASE with The Big O, who is a Constitutional scholar and brilliant as hell, and A PROFOUND PATRIOT.

Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton and Barrack Obama: it should be *PAINFULLY APPARENT* that tRump* and his minions do NOT have the best interests of America at heart. Please, Please, Please take every opportunity to speak out!

President Obama, come and join us. Your children's lives are at stake to.

It's not your fault that you believed that the peaceful transition of power was paramount. The problem is that you handed it iver to fascists.
