I'm pretty sure if you do the research you will find young Obama had several small business jobs while in high school much like I did... Probably some of our money from working went for similar, long quit but not forgotten, bong hits.

Like Trump, Obama had some good ideas and was far better at communicating them. My favorite was his idea that anyone who works hard and TRIES to succeed should have health care and a retirement via Social Security. The far left side of his party and the current resident of the White House can't even spell "try" much less understand how much harm they do rewarding bad results rather than good behavior.

I wonder if Obama would have been more of a moderate or even a Republican IF he was denied all the scholarships and affirmative action help to get from a Maui doper to the president of the US just for being "too white." I know I still carry bitterness over it nearly 50 years later...

FTX Debacle.

My brain just flashed "they may need the 'Epstein Solution' to cover-up this FTX Debacle."

I'd love to see where that $64M of "client money" donations went. Was it enough to buy a senate seat in a key race or was it spread around?
