As a former President I feel like he needs to become more confrontational with Trump. His position, former and present, if mixed with some of Newsom's hard edge could cause some fireworks. Just like the Trump camp likes to flood the zone-if Obama and some Governors started hogging the national stage with messages like this -it would cause more panic in the Trump Whitehouse and reverse uno a flood to their zone.
Obama has earned his day of leisure but he is really one of a handful of people who can cause damage to Trump personally and we need him to stand up for this country. There's no one else. I wish he would answer the call now before it gets worse. All of this hinges on whether or not Obama is a puppet to the DNC- who wants to act like its business as usual and "if you just donate 7 dollars, we'll show them!!"

Our Cheeto Caesar that put this in play would not shut up for years with his idiotic claim that Obama was not born in the United States. His plans to destroy the American way began long ago. Didn't it?

The bigger problem with this is that even when Trump leaves office and even assuming American democracy survives his presidency, he's created a precedent that's almost certainly going to be used to justify future uses of the military on American soil.
People often talk about Trump in extreme terms, saying he's becoming a dictator (and he's certainly trying to), but even if he fails, he's going to have paved the way so that it'll make it much easier for future Presidents to become dictators.
I just don't see America going back to how it was before Trump once he leaves office. It's going to be changed permanently.
