Obama Now Living His Best Life In Italy With Michelle
BY MICHELE GORMAN ON 5/22/17 AT 12:20 PM
This week, former President Barack Obama and President Donald Trump will travel abroad in Europe. While Obama enjoys his retirement with a vacation in Italy and a meeting later this week with a U.S. ally, Trump is in the midst of his first international trip as leader of the free world, with stops in both Europe and the Middle East.
Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama arrived in Italy over the weekend and are expected to vacation there for six days. Since their arrival, Obama has played golf at an exclusive course in Tuscany, and the former first lady has hiked. On Thursday, the former president will deliver a speech alongside German Chancellor Angela Merkel at Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate. Also that day, his successor is scheduled to be in Brussels for a meeting and dinner with Secretary of Defense James Mattis and NATO leaders, before moving on to Sicily and wrapping up his multiday trip on May 27.
Since leaving the White House in January, the Obamas have been on multiple vacations, including islands in the Caribbean and the Pacific. Photos surfaced of Obama enjoying relaxation by kitesurfing and Jet-Skiing. In his few public appearances this year, Obama has avoided commenting on Trump. Instead, he has participated in a roundtable discussion with young men from Chicago, and he has encouraged young Americans to remain politically active. He continued to lay out plans for his presidential library in his hometown of Chicago, and gave a speech urging Republicans to do what they believe is right in saving the Affordable Care Act, his signature law. The U.S. House of Representatives narrowly passed a bill to repeal and replace Obamacare.

https://www.democraticunderground.com/10029102129I wonder if he's been taking his mooching voodoo mother-in-law along on all these vacations? Probably not, since the American taxpayers aren't paying her room and board anymore, she's probably on her own.

8. My RW neighbor
Has already sent me a Facebook post describing how terrible it is that the Obamas are vacationing again. Guess she can't find anything good to say about her orange hero, so she again attacks the Obamas.

34. WTF does anyone care? He is essentially retired.
He is not being paid by the taxpayers to WORK for the US government now. He can do anything he wants to, and it's nobody's business.
Unfortunately, people still associate him with America. He's still expected to represent us.
It reflects poorly on the United States when his classless wife goes flouncing into a solemn Italian cathedral dressed like a dirty streetwalker.
