WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Amid concerns about Donald Trump’s fitness to be President, former President Barack Obama said on Tuesday that he was willing to serve as “temp President” while Trump undergoes psychiatric evaluation.
“It would just be a temp thing,” Obama told reporters. “As soon as psychiatrists determine that Donald Trump is mentally stable and fit to serve as the most powerful officeholder in the world, I’d step aside.”
Obama said that he was a “logical choice” to serve as temp President because of his eight years in the White House. “For starters, I know how the light switches work,” he said.
Obama said that, once installed as temp President, he would look after the day-to-day running of the White House: “You know—vetoing bills, naming Supreme Court Justices, that kind of thing.”
Asked how he envisioned his working relationship with Vice-President Mike Pence, Obama said, “I think Mike has been working so darn hard, he really deserves a vacation. Joe Biden has said he’ll fill in for a while."

the Constitution does not allow what Obama wants to do, but that has never stopped him before, so why should the "Progressives" care at this point. They have never been concerned about the Constitution before.

wonder how many will bitePlenty, this is mostly the “if it’s on the internet it must be true” crowd. Of course they dismiss well researched accurate information from the Times or Post as “f**e”. I***ts who have sold out our nation due to their paranoia and ignorance.

Yet you v**ed for a crook. You point your finger at anyone who v**ed for Trump and you supported a crook. Unless you v**ed for someone else.
The democrats had nothing. That's why he got elected. Go ahead and try to blame it on Russia. If its true he was still elected because the democrats had nothing. If they had had a decent candidate things would have been different.

Oh contraire, You know not who I v**ed for. Once again your assumption is incorrect. I asked you why you sold your country out, you did not answer.

If Clinton was a crook why hasn’t she been prosecuted? The i***t Pumpkinfuhrer controls all federal law enforcement and the promise he made to his i***t followers even more than to build his vanity wall was “lock her up”. So there are only 2 possibilities she is not a crook and his griping was nothing but more of his BS or Trump is an incompetent buffoon in a job for which he is completely unqualified.

Why hasn't she been prosecuted? Seriously? How did Bill Clinton get away with perjury? How do any corrupt politicians get away with anything? Are you really that naive?
Obama was completely unqualified too and he was a bust. Though I didn't like his politics I still wanted him to succeed. This irrational hatred people have for Obama and Trump is not good for our country.
