Quote
President Obama, continuing what has become a tour of explanation through Europe and now South America, advised people around the world not to prejudge President-elect Donald Trump.

"I think it will be important for everybody around the world to not make immediate judgments, but give this new president-elect a chance," Obama said at a town hall-style event with young Latin American leaders here.

This is interesting.

Usually His Heinous  is wont to bash America and American policies and peoples outside of the country on these third world "Bash America' tours of his.

The fact he is pleading for the world to give Trump a chance - might indicate that which we warned about Trump from the beginning; he never was nor will he govern according to the Constitution or Conservative principles.

If I was reading through Obama's words - I would say he was telling the third world in whom he has invested so much animosity towards us , that Trump will continue the Leftward tilt of Statist power and redistribution.

Because Trump may have been the Left's trump card all along.
Fart for freedom, fart for liberty and fart proudly.  - Benjamin Franklin

...Obsta principiis—Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in the bud, is the only maxim which can ever preserve the liberties of any people. When the people give way, their deceivers, betrayers and destroyers press upon them so fast that there is no resisting afterwards. The nature of the encroachment upon [the] American constitution is such, as to grow every day more and more encroaching. Like a cancer, it eats faster and faster every hour." - John Adams, February 6, 1775

I simply don't see the point. Its not like Trump is an unknown quantity, in fact most of his supporters were calling him a liberal scumbag just a couple of years ago. He hasn't changed a bit, his supporters in their desperation are the ones who have changed.

Trump has been a celebrity for more than 30 years and he's been a lowlife the entire time. Giving him a chance now is like trusting a crack addict with your checkbook.

For us, yes.  However, Obama is telling the third world to 'give Trump a chance'.  A 'chance' for what?  To continue what Obama started? 

If Obama was afraid of Trump undoing the diminishment of the country he has established as policy - I am pretty sure Obama would be busy telling the world to resist what Trump wants to do before he even takes office -much like the radicals of his party are currently doing.

If Obama even had a concern Trump might undo what he has done, Obama would not be telling anyone to give Trump a chance.

After all, Obama is staying in DC to ensure what he put in place, is not dismantled.

We didn't 'give it a rest' when a radical Chicago Community organizer managed to get himself elected into high office, knowing who he hung around with, what he wrote and said before January 2009.

We sure as hell are not going to 'give it a rest' when a lifelong NYC Liberal Democrat got himself elected into high office, knowing whom he funded, campaigned for, supported and what he has said before today.

Nothing has changed in terms of our vigilance against people of despicable character in positions of power in government.

I intend to be one of the reasons he decides one term is more than enough for him.
