Donald Trump appeared to be on a bender when he spoke to reporters following the Justice Department’s decision to drop the criminal case against the president’s former national security advisor Michael Flynn. The Trump administration is making it seemingly legal to lie to the FBI, and that gets a pass while the president continues to berate the agency on a regular basis. Attorney General Bill Barr dropping charges against a former Trump administration official who already entered a guilty plea tells us everything we need to know about the former reality show star’s presidency in a nutshell.
So, of course, President IMAX blamed the Obama administration. We’ve seen all of this play out pretty much daily. After lashing out at the media, Trump then zoomed in on his predecessor’s administration.
“Very complicit is a thing called the media,” the president said.” The media is totally guilty. And all of those writers and so-called journalists — they’re not journalists, they’re thieves — all of those journalists that received a Pulitzer Prize should be forced to give them back.”
“What they did, what the Obama administration did, is unprecedented … and I hope a lot of people will pay a big price because they are dishonest, crooked people. They are scum,” Trump said.

So, the least popular president in history is calling one of our country’s most admired president’s administration “scum.” Well, the Internet wasn’t too happy about that.
We know who the real scum is.

But… Flynn was investigated in April, 2017. This stuff isn’t that hard to figure out.

CNN’s Don Lemon previously called Trump out on his nightly show over the president’s obsession with Obama.
“What is it about President Obama that really gets under your skin? Is it because he’s smarter than you? Better educated? Made it on his own?” Lemon asked. “Didn’t need daddy’s help? Wife is more accomplished? Better looking? I don’t know, what is it, what is it about him?”
“That he’s a black man that’s accomplished being president?” Lemon continued. “That he punked you on the whole birth certificate thing? What is it about him? Just wondering.”
It’s all of the above, Mr. Lemon.
