    But when he left the Oval Office for the final time – leaving it in the tiny hands of the very racist who had demanded his birth certificate – I fantasized that he’d join us on the front lines of marches, battle for the salvation of Obamacare in ingenious ways, and maybe turn up at a Black Lives Matter event.

Jesus fucking christ, really? I've got mayonnaise older than this fucking presidential term and we're already excoriating Obama for his "legacy?"

I love how the exact same organizations that berate and belittle the banks for having all the power and influence will berate and belittle anyone who takes money for talking to them.
