President Bankruptcy Batista Thinks Obama Likes Him; Someone Remove This Lie From His Mind, Stat – The Root

Like anything else that involves communication, your presidents recent interview with fellow belligerent white man Bill OReilly was a clusterfuck. Most of the fallout from it, though, focused on Bankruptcy Batista taking issue with OReillys categorization of Russian President Vladimir Putin as a killer.
There are a lot of killers, 45 shot back. Weve got a lot of killers. What do you think, our countrys so innocent?
When your new boyfriend is an authoritarian who may or may not have video of you being pissed on in a hotel, its unsurprising to see that you continue to serve as the Bonnie to his Clyde, the Bell Biv to his DeVoe and the eager bottom to his aggressive top. Thats what love is. Well, thats also blackmail, but same difference, in this instance. As frustrating as it was to hear him say that, youre not going to get my black self to rally too hard for the country that just allowed Attorney General Segregation Now, Segregation Forever to happen.
So while critics were correct in assailing a false equivalence slow cooking in a Crock-Pot of asininity and outlandishness, there was another declaration made by 45 that still slips and slides up and down my last nerve. It is a sentiment that 45 has hinted at before but never flat out said until now.
As he and OReilly discussed American Horror Story: The 2016 Presidential Election, 45 had the honeysuckle-colored gall to assert that former President Obama actually likes his bigoted ass. Of Obama, 45 explained to OReilly, Its a very strange phenomena. We get along. I dont know if hell admit this, but he likes me, I like him.
Any sensible soul has long been aware that 45 is too many fallen fries from a full order, too much ice for a satisfying full cup of strawberry soda and one nugget short of a worthwhile late-night drive-thru run. Still, how much is this man out of his rabbit-ass mind to think that Barry fucks with him? How could he possibly believe that the man against whom he lodged a dehumanizing, racist-conspiracy-theory-riddled campaign finds him anything other than a village idiot whos lucky that bigotry and white mediocrity can always take you far in America?
When asked what convinced him that Obama genuinely liked him, 45 responded, I can feel it.
Bankruptcy Batista says he can feel it, yall. Total, help me sing. Total, help me sing.
He continued:
We had a rough campaign. He was fighting better for Hillary then she did. He was vicious during the campaign towards me and I was vicious towards him. We said horrible things about each other. And then we hop into the car and we drive down Pennsylvania Avenue together and we dont even talk about it. Politics is amazing.
See, 45 is acting like those co-workers who dont understand that when their colleaguesnamely, the black ones who dont really fool with them like thatare being cordial, theyre simply being professional. In the case of Obama treating his successor with the dignity he doesnt deserve, that speaks to Obamas sense of duty. That is not the same thing as sincere affinity for a basket case who ought to be relegated to social media and reality television.
During the campaign trail, Obama repeatedly laid into that man over his bad business dealings, divisive rhetoric and terrible character. Those feelings didnt suddenly dissipate after Obama was compelled by duty to engage him. Of course, 45 doesnt know much of anything, much less about matters related to basic social skills.
In the article For Donald Trump, Friends in Few Places, Alan Feuer explored 45s lack of friendship in the failing New York Times. He doesnt really have a lot of friends, Billy Procida, a financier from New Jersey who served for years as one of Trumps top lieutenants, was quoted as saying. Pretty much all he does is work and play golf.
And, you know, bash people who dont align with his warped view about a given topic or affect his frail ego.
I dont know what will happen with this country. Im not sure if a global war wont start over tweet beef. Its not for certain that 45 will ever be impeached despite mounting evidence practically begging for it.
Right now, nothing is certain. That is, minus one thing: Barack Hussein Obama does not like this punk-ass man. Obama may love civility, but there is no reason this clownish president deserves to walk around this earth thinking that Obama likes him. Can everyone come together and let this man know that if he were drowning, Obama would probably go ask someone to whip up some grits for this fat fish thats about to fry?
If there is some White House employee reading this, sobbing under his or her desk about the decision he or she made, do the world a favor: Remind 45 of this clip. Let him know that Obama does not like him deep down; he doesnt like him at all. Then remind him that former first lady Michelle Obama likely still wants to knock his wig off.
