64 ways Obama is sabotaging Trump
It might seem outrageous and unprecedented that a newly departed president would devote himself to overthrowing his successor, but that is exactly what a mountain of growing evidence appears to indicate. “Obama’s goal, according to a close family friend, is to oust Trump from the presidency either by forcing his resignation or through his impeachment,” the Daily Mail reported Wednesday.

Yes, The Shack is indeed a novel. And many will wonder what could be wrong, since it is identified as a Christian book and authored by a man who claims to be a Christian.
Limbaugh Warns of Silent Coup Against Trump

Obama’s Bigshot Syndrome: Obama and Valarie Jarrett to mount and “insurgency” against President Trump from new home in DC?
This is Obama totally. He can’t step down. He can’t let the country heal. He must be “remembered”. He must be the big shot.
The Obama’s said they were sticking around DC so that their daughter could finish school. We now know that was a ruse. (This was always the assumption.) Obama wants to stick around to complain and according to this report from the Daily Mail “according to a close family friend,
