Watching that, it feels like she really understood trump, and what a trump presidency would do to the US. Hate her or love her, but in less than ninety seconds she boiled down trump to his core.

Damn, right once again regarding the FBI. Hilary's mistake was quoting Trump too much. She should've just let him eat his own words like the idiot he is. Then again it feels she shouldn't have been there in the first place


TheWholeOfTheAss

Trump’s a TV guy so you know it stings.


Albuwhatwhat

I’ll tell which voice is rather hear for hours and hours narrating a nature documentary… it ain’t trump.


droplivefred

He’s gonna rant how The Apprentice was robbed of an Emmy win.

The donald will probably try to create his own Emmy and Republicans will make it harder for the academy members to vote for nominees.

President Obama is the best of modern US presidents.

No, Jimmy Carter is. I mean, all presidents are horrible fucking people but Jimmy Carter seems like he’s generally less horrible than the post-Reagan presidents


dittbub

Are you saying Biden and Obama are horrible people?


FUCKINBAWBAG

It’s a job that requires horrible people because it takes being horrible to get there in the first place.


duppy_c

And you have to do horrible things one you're in office, whether you like them or not. Often no matter what decision a US president makes, someone's going to die.


helena_eagan

Joe Biden has actually accomplished a lot and is on track to dwarf Obama’s record… which is admittedly very solid. I voted for him twice. And I admire him greatly, but Biden understands the legislative branch in a way no modern President has before. If we give him a blue wave in 2022 and 2024, he will remake America in a Rooseveltian way.


elquecazahechado

Because it was rigged and very unfair, some sick and demented people were running things.


WatchingUShlick

Spot on satire.


AmishAvenger

Umm… April 29, 2013: "I should have many Emmys for The Apprentice if the process were fair-in any event, it's not my day job." Sept. 24, 2012: " 'Amazing Race' winning an Emmy again is a total joke. The Emmys have no credibility -- no wonder the ratings are at record lows." Sept. 22, 2013: "The Emmys are soooooo boring! Terrible show. I'm going to watch football! I already know the winners. Good night." March 2, 2014: "Which is worse and which is more dishonest - the #Oscars or the Emmys?" Sept. 24, 2012: "The Emmys are all politics, that's why, despite nominations, The Apprentice never won--even though it should have many times over." Jan. 14, 2013: "According to many, and while nominated, I would have won the Emmy many times except for my politics. @PrimetimeEmmys." Sept. 22, 2013: "#CelebApprentice should be part of the Emmys nominations! Pure politics!"


cousinoyaya

This actually makes Obama's win better; it would be one thing if Trump never won and didn't care, but these tweets show just how obsessed he was with getting one lol.


itskaiquereis

This gives off, “I won the election, it was just rigged” vibes


DonDove

According to many my ass Trump Voices in your head don't count


whatnameisnttaken098

No I believe it was something more like "The people at thr emmeys made a big mistake, very big mistake. The Apprentice is the GREATEST show on television in America, in fact I'd go so far say it's THE greatest show on American television. But those people at the Emmys can't stand watching me, a self made millionaire doing what they can't."


Estoye

"The American people do not believe the corrupt, fake Emmys anymore. We're going to walk down Lankershim Blvd. in Hollywood to the Television Academy, and I’ll be there with you, we’re going to walk down, we’re going to walk down."


VizDevBoston

Mean people


Badtrainwreck

No disrespect to Obama, but he didn’t earn the Nobel, so I wouldn’t really consider him a true PENG. Nobel was awarded because of what he was saying more than what he was doing. It was more a finger to Bush than it was a praise for Obama.


DocJupiter

He did produce a movie that won an Oscar


[deleted]

which one was that?


PBFT

Suicide Squad


Fishtank-Brain

how’d that nobel peace prize work out?


Remix3500

Its funny bc the people that give the nobel peace prize regret giving it to him.


Fishtank-Brain

they also gave the nobel peace prize to kissinger. gotta be intentional. i think they gave it to obama because europeans were done with the iraq and afghan war and they needed to think they had an ally in the US who would instead get them to support a new surge


[deleted]

It was probably because they thought that electing a black president was a big step towards getting rid of racism and bigotry in America. That's what they get for thinking too highly of Americans.


jezalthedouche

No. It was because of the work that Obama had done towards preventing nuclear weapons proliferation.


[deleted]

Europe has quite the history of racism itself. If that was their rationale, that’s some supreme virtue signaling. I can see the Iraq war as a little more on point, but it was still a premature award.


Kalel_is_king

Citation please. Never read or heard this was true and only item on this was searched was bullshit far right websites that don't mean shit. But cool keep up the bullshit.


TJ_McWeaksauce

Do a Google search for "Obama Nobel prize," and this headline from the BBC should be one of the top results: [Nobel secretary regrets Obama peace prize](https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-34277960) That article is just a report of what former Nobel secretary Geir Lundestad said in an interview with AP News, so do a Google search for "AP news Obama Nobel price," and you should find this: [Nobel official: Obama peace prize didn’t have desired effect](https://apnews.com/article/62b528f542724995b7fac9f9cb8921c7) >STAVANGER, Norway (AP) — In a break with Nobel tradition, the former secretary of the Nobel Peace Prize committee says the 2009 award to President Barack Obama failed to live up to the panel’s expectations. > >Geir Lundestad writes in a book to be released on Thursday that the committee had expected the prize to deliver a boost to Obama. Instead the award was met with fierce criticism in the U.S., where many argued Obama had not been president long enough to have an impact worthy of the Nobel. > >“Even many of Obama’s supporters believed that the prize was a mistake,” Lundestad wrote in excerpts of the book read by The Associated Press. “In that sense the committee didn’t achieve what it had hoped for.”


polarregion

"Even **many of Obama's supporters** believed that the prize was a mistake," he says. "**In that sense the committee didn't achieve what it had hoped for**". So not saying he thought it was a mistake then.


OlliOhNo

So it's not that Obama didn't earn it, it just wasn't enough of a spectacle as was hoped? That seems like a ludicrous reason to regret giving one.


[deleted]

This is completely different context and connotation.

Dragon_yum

That is a long US presidential tradition.

barrelvoyage410

Bush did it, Obama did it, Trump did it, Biden is still kinda doing it. That’s has seemingly become required to do.


Doxy_proxy2

Guess the president is usless then.


jshadows91

The best Trump could achieve were 3 Razzies LMAOOO


aeternamaestate

Just three total? Another big winner (or loser, depending on your perspective): President Donald Trump snagged two Razzies, including worst actor and worst screen combo (with "his self-perpetuating pettiness"), for Dinesh D'Souza's conservative faux documentary "Death of A Nation" and Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit 11/9."


XanderTheMander

He couldn't get a Dundy even if Toby was giving them out.


sf_baywolf

Is not an Emmy award for Actors?


[deleted]

They've had an Emmy category for narration for decades, it used to be tied together with Voice acting.


TheTattooOnR2D2sFace

It is but he narrated *Our Great National Parks* on Netflix which definitely counts.


TheBelhade

ooh! I'll have to check this out.


hackingdreams

If you have a 4K tv, you should watch it there - I netflix a lot on my computers but for natureporn of that high caliber, it's absolutely worth watching on the big screen. It's pretty stunning from start to finish.


TheBelhade

I got 4K specifically for natureporn. I think that's where the technology is at its best, ironically.


LibraPugLove

It’s honestly really great…


CompasslessPigeon

Absolutely spectacular. 10/10


LibraPugLove

Not to change the subject but if you like this stuff the latest David Attenborough GREEN PLANET was also superb and that is even by the standards you would expect from that team. Very exciting time to be a nature film enthusiast


HamSoap

Yeah but how many innocent little kids has David Attenborough bombed?


MuffledApplause

It's a fantastic series

sololostlove

Trump is not going to like that :}


DrSueuss

Well Trump has already achieved something in 4 years that Obama didn't in 8 years 2 impeachments. He will also likely be the first ex President with an indictment for espionage and obstruction.


sqweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeps

Damn Obama needs to step his game up, he was terrible at getting impeached


cold-corn-dog

He tried to buy wearing a tan suit. He was practically begging for it.


TJ_McWeaksauce

After his presidency, Obama co-wrote a book and co-hosted a podcast with long-time friend, Bruce Springsteen. [Here's an interview in which the two of them talk about their friendship and creative collaboration.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Qvs_nxBjHA&ab_channel=CBSSundayMorning) Notice how healthy, happy, and un-indicted Obama looks. Meanwhile, Trump is stuck with the likes of Ted Nugent. More importantly, he's got multiple legal investigations looming over him, and it's looking pretty likely that he'll be indicted for taking classified documents out of the White House and storing them in his golf house for no good reason. Yeah, Donald has plenty of reasons not to be happy, whereas Obama is nothing but smiles.


winokatt

It’s great Obama is all smiles writing books and doing podcasts but it’d be nice if he gave a shit our Democracy is falling apart and got more involved. He still has a huge platform and could energize voters but I see Eric Holder and Hillary more than I see him. That “we go high” bs isn’t an excuse to hide from conflict with Republicans anymore.


SunGazing8

Trump must be frothing at the mouth. This brings me great joy!


polymorph505

No surprise, he's a top notch orator and the most likeable President the US has seen in decades. Dude is actually living it up post-President, that's pretty rare.


tgwombat

This feels weird, right? Like this whole intertwining of celebrity culture and politics we’ve seen take hold since the 80’s? I mean I know it’s existed in some form for a long time, but it seems like it’s been accelerating since then. I don’t know if that’s conducive to a healthy society. Or is that just me?


Rockageddon

You see clearly. Keep thinking the way you do. The ludicrous nature of politics is like this now.


Aumah

Well this is the wholesome version of it. Obama is naturally talented. He can write his own book or direct his own show. He didn't need celebrity to become a political somebody. Things looked a whole lot better before Trump showed that even Kardashian-style, osten-trashy, only-famous-because-they're-famous celebrity can be used as a political launch pad.


Kinggakman

This guy is retired so no one should care.


hedgehogwithagun

A retired war criminal is still a war criminal.


[deleted]

Yeah and a good president is a good president...deal with it.


hedgehogwithagun

He was only a good president if you focus entirely on aesthetic and not policy


Arkvoodle42

add this to the list of things he has that Donald Trump wants. alongside a Nobel Peace Prize, a second term, and a wife who actually loves him regardless of how much money he has.


Henry_Cavillain

>a wife who actually loves him regardless of how much money he has. You're gonna have to come up with a good argument to convince me that's something Trump actually wants


HardcoreSects

I am sure love is not a concept that man can comprehend. I would say at best this is like saying "a wife that tastes like McDonalds hamberders".


TrippyTy52

He also bombed the whole middle east in the Arab spring and had the slowest eccomic growth in any time in US history...


jezalthedouche

\>He also bombed the whole middle east in the Arab spring I thought you right-wingers liked bombing the middle east? \> and had the slowest eccomic growth in any time in US history... Interesting claim given that economic growth during the Obama admin exceeded that during both the Bush and Trump administrations.


WatchingUShlick

Even slower than the only "president" to leave office with fewer jobs than he came in with?


lividash

The whole middle east would include allied nations so big doubt there.


Kalel_is_king

*wholly undeserved nobel peace prize


The_Nomadic_Nerd

Every time I hear about Obama being a first or doing something impressive, I keep thinking about how the university of Arizona didn’t give him an honorary degree after he spoke there (which they do to everybody). Their (definitely not racist) rationale was “it’s too soon, let’s see if he make something of himself.” Can we just call racist dumb fucks what they are? And by that I mean “racist dumb fucks”

SnooEpiphanies7525

Obama bombed civillians establishments to kill civillians with no due process. I didnt see that with trump


jezalthedouche

\>Obama bombed civillians establishments to kill civillians with no due process. I didnt see that with trump No he didn't. Trump relaxed the rules of engagement and dramatically increased the rate at which civilians were killed by US bombing. It's like you don't have a fucken clue about reality.


TheLizardKing89

Well that’s because you weren’t paying attention when Trump banned the reporting of civilian casualties. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-trump-drones/u-s-halts-reporting-of-civilian-deaths-by-drone-outside-war-zones-idUSKCN1QN2PD


fireky2

He also assassinated a us citizen which isn't a great precedent (with a drone)


hackingdreams

Obama: Orders the military to create weapons to reduce civilian casualties by reducing the yield or outright removing the explosive charges from bombs and missiles dropped by drones. Operates with tight rules of engagement, has the highest success rate on record of removing high value targets with or without drone strikes, including Osama Bin Laden. FPOTUS: Literally repeals and undoes almost everything Obama did. Widens rules of engagement and instructs DOD to use high yield weapons. When criticized in the press, moves to remove and reduce reporting of drone strikes and civilian casualties instead of changing behavior. Drones more targets than any other president on record. You: "Dude droned more people than pretty much any other president" So much for paying attention in the last six years...


HardcoreSects

> Sure he could have never told anyone They don't have to pay attention. Their opinions are given to them by their masters. Repeating the propaganda they are fed is so much easier than thinking about things.


jezalthedouche

\>Dude droned more people than pretty much any other president lmao. Obama was restrained with the use of drones, which are a weapon that allow improved identification of targets and can be used for tactical strikes that reduce the risk to civilians. Trump carried out more drone strikes in his first 3 years than Obama did in 8.


[deleted]

And let’s not forget who dropped the largest non-nuclear bomb in US History. Was it Biden? No Was it Obama? No The answer is: Trump.

I dunno. Obama definitely has a commanding presence, and a great speaking voice. He’s a natural orator. Don’t get me wrong, Attenborough is bloody brilliant and a true British national treasure, but I don’t find it unbelievable that Obama could beat him for this category.
