Wonder if they will have anything to talk about? Donald’s is smaller than Obama’s? Ha ha ha!

Obama is in a difficult position. Either he continues with his civics sainthood campaign, which in the end proved ineffectual and counterproductive in the face of the systematic GOP attempt to undermine our democracy and involves gaslighting the country about the good folks on either side of the aisle and the ‘unhelpful’ actions of ‘Congress’; or he goes into an explicit, necessarily partisan resistance mode–which will only serve to activate Republicans, many of whom will only get behind Trump in order to take down an iconic liberal. I guess if anyone could thread this needle, it’s him.

David Letterman is having a Netflix Talk Show?? That’s news to me…and I get Netflix. Yay!

Wow. A little harsh, don’t ya think? Maybe he’s just a good person who tries to do good because he has a moral compass and a genuine sense of decency. And yes, he can ‘thread that needle’ because he doesn’t play politics in the way it sounds like you think he should. I personally respect him for that very reason. I personally don’t think we’ll see another gifted politician, statesman and generally decent human being as President like him in our lifetime, sad to say.
