President Trump has been dismissing the protests against his presidency and demonstrations at congressional town hall meetings across the country as concocted by his political enemies. But now he has an alleged culprit: Barack Obama.

In an interview Monday with Fox News Channel, Trump said that he believes his predecessor is helping to organize the protests ...

2. He's not, but so what if he was?

Organizing protests is protected by the Constitution, no matter who does it. The First Amendment includes "the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."

3. Like protestors can't do anything unless they see a secret signal from Obama.

4. Another lie? god this jerk is gonna get on everyone's last nerve

5. Hopefully He doesn't go the full dictator route and

Try to arrest Obama. Wouldn't put it past Bannon and Sessions though.

6. Obama made me do it

He called & told me I had to go protest.

[phleshdef]

7. He isn't and Trump better hope he doesn't start.

Barack Obama could probably be the most powerful private citizen in this country right now.

8. What's so maddening about his insane proclamations is

that his supporters believe his nonsense.

What I can't figure out is if T himself believes this stuff or not. Maybe he does believe every brick he builds his fantasy universe with.

20. That's The Point

Red meat for his buffoonish base. Since anything Obama is bad, he just has to invoke his name and then nothing is his fault.

Funny how Obama went from being so ineffective as a leader to having this kind of sway in 4 weeks, especially since he was on vacatino for 2 of them.

Pretty impressive to organize this kind of activism in only two weeks. Who knew?

9. Ask him if he

is doing this from his home in Kenya?

[Cha]

10. trumps an infamous Liar. Known across the globe.

He also said Hillary wanted Tom Perez.. she endorsed no one for DNC chair

[SammyWinstonJack]

12. He sure has a lot of scapegoats.

Sad little man. Wish he'd just go away.

[MountCleaners]

13. What low-class behavior.

The way he goes on and on about his former opponent as well as his predecessor is something presidents usually don't do. He has no respect at all for the office, and no class.

Someone please wake me when this crazy asshole is impeached.

14. "Last night Trump saw upon the stair...."

Last night Trump saw upon the stair
A Bogey Man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
Trump wishes that he'd go away.

15. This is because Trumps head exploded when he saw the adulation Obama got in NY the other day.

[smirkymonkey]

17. Interesting observation - I never thought to connect the dots,

but you are probably absolutely right. He's so paranoid, insecure and narcissistic I am sure Obama's reception on Donny's own turf made him blow a gasket. Especially since he is so reviled by most New Yorkers.

[sunonmars]

19. its totally obvious, crowds waving and screaming for Obama, yup he totally looped.

[mnmoderatedem]

16. clearly prodded by a Faux news "journalist" leading question

there they go being fair and balanced again

[NCTraveler]

18. There is no bigger promoter than Trumps. Nt

21. I knew it. That Richard Branson island thing was just a ruse. Sly O, sly.
