Turns Out, Obama Didn't Actually Need An Anger Translator | Crooks and Liars
By: Susie Madrak (Crooks and Liars)
Mr Obama very rarely showed anger in public. It's good to know that he uses words that I do. And gets mad.

We all know how understated and restrained Barack Obama was throughout his presidency -- enough so that comedians did bits about Obama's anger translator. Well, it turns out he had feelings about Donald Trump. Strong feelings. And he shared them with donors and advisers. Via the Guardian:
According to a new book, Obama called Trump a "madman", a "racist, sexist pig", "that fucking lunatic" and a "corrupt motherfucker".
The remarks are reported in Battle for the Soul: Inside the Democrats' Campaigns to Defeat Donald Trump by Edward-Isaac Dovere, a staff writer at the Atlantic, which will be published next week. The Guardian obtained a copy
[...]"He's a madman," Dovere reports Obama telling "big donors looking to squeeze a reaction out of him in exchange for the big checks they were writing to his foundation".
"More often: 'I didn't think it would be this bad.' Sometimes: 'I didn't think we'd have a racist, sexist pig.' Depending on the outrage of the day … a passing 'that fucking lunatic' with a shake of his head."

Oh, I'm sure I will get lots of "love" from my trolls, but I saw this and it was just too funny to pass up.
I love me some Stephen!!!!!! He called the trumpturd 'the lingering orange fart'.
colbert is merciless when it comes to the orange skid mark.
He had a contest and now instead of using his name, he uses the winners from the contest - one of them was Mar-A-Lardo. I'll have to look up the others. Before, whenever trumpturd's name was on screen on something, it was like a curse word, *****..
I try to watch all his shows. there's no rwnj on the planet that can go toe to toe with him.
He never fails to get a laugh out of me! None of those rwnj's have the brains or the smarts to match Stephen.
Also, he and his wife are such a cute couple. I love to hear her giggling in the background.
Colbert Cops to Not Saying Trump’s Name Since November: ‘Guilty as Noticed’ (Video)
The late-night host explained that he’s been using euphemisms when talking about the former president, but worries even they dignify Trump
CBS
Stephen Colbert admitted Monday night that, as an article from the Associated Press said, he hasn’t been saying Donald Trump’s name on-air since November. Worried his current euphemisms dignify “the former guy,” he asked viewers to start suggesting new ones.
“Guilty as noticed,” the CBS host said while reviewing the AP piece, which focused on the downward trend of Trump’s relevance in public life. Even in the graphic of the story Colbert’s production team flashed on-air, Trump’s name was censored.
“After the whole January 6 thing — no, even before that. It was after November 6 when he did that whole ‘I won’ thing, I planned not to say the guy’s name again. I think I’ve paid my dues in that regard, but now that the buzzkills over at the AP have mentioned it, it’s no fun anymore. Besides, it’s really hard coming up with synonyms for this douche nozzle’s name,” said the “A Late Show” host before checking with someone of-screen whether they team had used “douche nozzle” to describe Trump before.
He went on, “Usually, I call him the former president, but that gives him dignity and me flashbacks.”
Colbert then appealed to his audience to help him find a more suitable name for Trump, like “Melania’s husband,” until, he hopes, he can start referring to him as “the defendant.” He encouraged viewers to tweet their suggestions at him and vowed to use the most appropriate ones on the show.

Let's let them have a day of fun. They can bash Obama all they want but they better not pick on NT'ers
I know of one troll that'll be late to the party...
Me, too.
Now why did somebody flag this comment?
Too bad we can't see who flags like we can see who voted up a comment.
meh, don't worry about it. I handled it. that gutless moron flags all my comments.
He wouldn't be able to comment on this seed anyway
the only reason i stop by this site, cause i luvs me some trolls, cause i find it EZ 2 Pass out my own special "luv", cause i'm like a reciprocating sawz all and/or nothing in half, cause it's still nothing, as far as they aren't concerned, but on occasion, they are Oh K shunned, but not buy me, asz , i ain't for sale, irregardless of how many sheets to the wind that blows para sailors through time, even when the clock is left un wound up and dressed in a field numbered not primed, like a pump for the well being too deep to submerge my shallow thought less ofs', by ones thought more ons, than knot, cuz tied together is an unrelated pot to call black caused smoked till ash, unless blonde, cause then it's hash, think i'm gonna do write as i dine and dash, like Dots i scream about, four stopping me, 5 at a time.
I would love to get some blonde hash.
it's to dye for, and i do come across it occasionally
Obama don't play!
There's really no other way to describe dirty Donald if one is being truly objective. The only ones claiming anything different have their heads shoved up Trumps ass so that anything you say about their favorite ass-hat-in-chief they take personally and are no longer impartial.
I don't recall seeing them impartial from the get go. So many so brainwashed via media that too often spouts wrong opinions to too many minions, as it akins to ignorance ruling over far to many, cause ain't Good, yet, awfully a Plenty.
Fabulous!!
Obama must have been really butt hurt after being proven wrong by Trump multiple times. Trump did win the Presidency.
Obama is every bit the elitist narcissist that Trump is. Obama just gets a free pass from the left and media because of the D behind his name.
I knew it wouldn't take long before at least one showed up
He gets a free pass because he actually knows what the fuck he's talking about. He didn't make up words or encourage people to take lysol to cure covid. Can you say the same thing about your puppet master?
I doubt if Obama was butt hurt by Trump since Trump was a one-term president and Obama belongs to the two term elite group.
Trump is still acting like a frickin grade-schooler with his constant whining and the ''Election was stolen from me'' the fruckin' moron.
The obsession with butt-hurtedness is odd.
If three terms were allowed, Obama would have won by a landslide.
Trump said he will win 5 terms, hopefully consecutively in jail for the ineffectively pathetic way he did rail, on about an over and done NoT stolen election
The kool aid really messed you up didn't it?
I think he got the off brand and not the real stuff
it was the bright green kind, prestone flavor...
keeps their hearts from freezing...

Obama had faith in the American people that a majority of us wouldn't vote for such a disgusting pig fucker like Trump. He was right, the majority of us have never voted for such a disgusting accused sexual predator and serial liar and adulterer. He just didn't expect a minority of Americans deciding to wallow in the same mud and squeaking out an electoral win in 2016. Thankfully, Americans overwhelmingly decided not to repeat their mistake in 2020 and threw that vile lying piece of shit out on his voluminous ass.
It was not Obama who gassed peaceful protesters for a photo op, shoved another diplomat out of the way to be up front, bad mouthed people with the graves of fallen soldiers in France as a backdrop, appointed family and donors to important positions for which they had no experience in, changed a weather map with a sharpie, suggested ingesting bleach to fight the CV and proceeded to infect multiple people at his rallys and the WH, continually massacred the English language, cheated on every wife, paid off a porn star, spent more time golfing and tweeting more than running the country, crashed a wedding to talk about himself instead of a congrats speech, sexually assaulted women, cheated on his taxes, made every thing about him, ripped of his supporters, referred to his supporters as disgusting people, violated his variance to live at Mar A Largo, cheated at golf, requested that Scotland build a sea wall at his golf course there citing climate change as the problem when he denies climate change exists, made a preschooler recoil in horror, had his wife so disgusted that she won't even hold his hand in public, refused to pay people he owes, believed Putin over his own people, struck down protections of endangered animals so his kids could hunt them, was in love with Un, partied with sex traffickers, made the USAG his personal AG over the needs of the people, let his kids speak in public while coked up, and got lap dances from his teen aged daughter. Guess who that was. Sure Obama made some gaffs. All presidents have, but Trump has made it an art form and the norm, not the exception.
To quote the late great WC Fields...."Go away boy. You bother me."
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think you got everything!
That was Foghorn Leghorn but you're close. Fields was "Go away kid, you bother me" (he was talking to a little girl). I know the same to an extent but let's keep the record straight LOL
Foghorn Leghorn was loosely based on WC Fields. Did you never get the references when you watched Loony Tunes?
save your keystrokes...
I just wish I could post the clip of the terrified child.
I wasn't allow to watch LT's. My mom said too many of them might give me ideas.
I forgot doctored a video so it looked like a white toddler was running away from a black toddler out of fear.
I watched more LT when I was in college than I did growing up
Oh man, that sounds like really cruel punishment! I grew up on Looney Tunes and appreciated them way more as an adult. I have some cool DVD collections of Looney Tunes.
That's deplorable. Little ones know nothing but love.
I was not into cartoons all that much as a kid but as an adult, I am a hard core Rugrats fan.
