Less than a year left…
PS: Great article, fun to read.
Of course they stopped for BBQ in (eastern) NC. It’s not as good anywhere else.
FIGHTIN’ WORDS
I feel like this little girl about Obama leaving office.
Nooooooo! I’m not ready for a new president!!

Not everyone in NC was happy. Over in Mayberry…
The place they stopped for BBQ, Midwood Smokehouse, is around the corner from my house and has some amazing Q!
The President was truly enjoying campaigning. He didn’t want to let go of the mike today!
This is a man with zero fucks left to give, and it shows. He’s going to be a glorious campaigner.
Charlotte is a long way from eastern Carolina.
I love Obama but I love barbecue in all its regional and much-varied forms and this is killing me I live hours from any kind of decent barbecue waaahhh…
This is going to be sooooo FUN ! –
Someone posted earlier. and he/she was complaining that republicans were going to continue to trash Hill because of the hyped email “scandal,” even though she wasn’t going to be indicted. How would this person ever manage to get through her presidency with republicans bringing it up, along with all the other crap.
Obama has had a scandal-free presidency. He has a wonderful family, attempted to get along with republicans, and actually accomplished quite a bit, despite republicans fighting him, lying about him, criticizing him, saying all kinds of unbelievable crap.
There is no democrat out there that would avoid the same treatment. Certainly not the faux-democrat known as Bernie Sanders.
Obama has remained above, far above them all. He has shamed them and made them laughingstocks.
Maybe that’s one thing he learned from Hillary Clinton.
They see the writing on the wall. They know they’ll very likely lose the Senate and lose more than a few seats int House.
I think he ordered the “barbecued Trump”. It’s a delicacy that needs to marinate for four months, but will be mouth-wateringly delicious when ready.
Going to miss that man.
Isn’t that the inferior cut of meat that stews in its own juices?
Yes. Trump Au vin.
Might serve it to Republican relatives when they have a whine and cheesy party when he loses.
I love this man and his family so much and I’m so grateful to him and to them for what they’ve endured for all of us.
So much has been said this election cycle about corruption and Washington and politicians and everybody forgets that these people are public servants and most of them sacrifice a lot to serve in government. I know a statement like that seems laughable these days but it’s not. They are not all corrupt – there’s nothing corrupt about Barack Obama or anyone else in his family and there’s nothing corrupt about Hillary Clinton. She’s a public servant and she has been pretty much her entire adult life.
I’m so grateful that smart caring people still want these shitty jobs.
Obama pretended to wipe tears from his eyes.
Obama jokingly wiped tears from his eyes.
Fixed it for you TPM.
When you get out of your barbecue region, you’re lost. You think “Yes, this is interesting, but it isn’t barbecue.” (Same rule for Mexican food.)
