The next 7 weeks is going to be entertaining...fascinating, even maybe.

Not exactly Foreman/Ali, but maybe Mayweather/Pacquiao

I think Obama looks like a fool when he chimes in in political issues... He had his 8 years... He ordered a record number of drone strikes to deal with his record number of insecurities and now that he doesn't have that power anymore he's desperately flailing about in an attempt to stay relevant/rich...

Logan Paul vs KSI?

I'm afraid that reference is well over my head.

But, if Trump agrees and thinks Obama a political fool, he may get schooled. Nothing about this (or most?) election is really about political issues.

Obama picked up the economy gauntlet and now, it is ON. I think coming right out the gates and telling Trump (re: economy): "You didn't build that!" was a masterful stroke. The economy was probably GOP's single best rallying cry. It was supposed to swing independents and even center-left dems. By sowing any more doubt in Trump's boisterous claims about the economy, he's taking this head on. Trump may have shot himself in the foot worse than first appears with his clearly false claims about GDP:Unemployment rates. Usually, Trump can be tough to pin on factual claims, but this one can't be defended, and coming right after Obama's shots was not good.

I think it's terrible the way Trump has spoken about past presidents. And it is terrible that Obama sought the lower common denominator -- but that horse has left the barn and its going to be a fun ride.

Logan Paul vs KSI was a fight between a white moron who had no business doing what he was doing and a black moron who had no business doing what he was doing...

Millions of morons of many different races tuned in eagerly, with many even donating money to the moron fighter they - for reasons entirely unknown, even to themselves - supported more...

The fight was a draw, although it could be argued there were millions of losers involved...

Trump vs Obama is apparently take 2...

nobody here griped when Teddy Roosevelt re-entered presidential politics and ran for President again...

or Herbert Hoover or Harry Truman who remained active in politics after their terms...or GHW Bush, who foisted his sons on us...

It's different now... Besides, I'm sure once trump is out of office you'll never hear anything political out of him again...

Imo, once someone has served their term, that should be it for them and theirs... Politics shouldn't be a family business...

I didn't mean to gripe about Obama wading back into politics. I got no problem with that. I take issue with personal attacks, or even harsh criticisms of other presidents, by other presidents.

I have to admit. It isn't easy listening to Obama speak.
I mean , whole sentences?

Trump is Trump.

On the surface, Obama is supposed to be above this.

First rule of fight club is you never talk poorly about the current POTUS.

So much for the high road.

We've mostly agreed that Trump isn't the polished and eloquent politician that his predecessor was/is.

Now we should agree that Obama is literally no better.

The only high road Obamy ever chose was on the train to see mary jane.

At least he inhaled.
