Because when you quote a figure, that turns out to be more than double the actual figure, it's not nitpicking. Maybe he's exaggerating for effect. Maybe he's purposely misleading anyone that reads his post. All politicians, especially Presidents, make money off of their positions. Speaking engagenents, ect., it's all part of politics but if you are implying something nefarious, and you grossly exaggerate your numbers, you can't be mad if someone calls you out on it. He acts like Obama was the first person to profit from being President.

Yes. Lots of Republicans act like Obama was only one to do that. I agree with you. He isn't and won't be. But still that was the guy's point. I'm sure he didn't recall exact figure and just knew it was millions.

I hear ya. And i'm not here trying to offend Obama. I just get tired of this "left vs. right, liberal vs. conservative, democrat vs. republican" bullshite. All politicians are shady. And right now both sides are purposely playing Americans against each other. Along political lines, along racial lines. It's classic divide and conquer. Obama was part of it, Hillary was part if it, and yes, Trump is also part of it. I'm not even sure he realizes it. He may be getting played just like the rest of us.

EVERY ex-president is worth millions. It doesn't matter if it's 10, 20, 40, 90 f*cking million dollars.

Someday people will look at the way Democrats talked about President Trump - idiot, bad business man, no clue, dumbest human alive — and then they’ll stumble across something like this. They will then make this face —

Divide and conquer is easier than ever ....

Remember when people were hating each other when Harambe was shot.....

Americans are dumb and easily distracted
