Halfway through I started to get a feeling in the pit of my stomach, like a loved one is dying and will soon be gone.

I watched the CNN special too and brought me to tears. Obama has so much class & genuinly cares. I hope he's a thorn in Trumps side after leaving, when needed.

And I think he will be very big thorn in Trumps sides. Just the popularity numbers will drive Trump crazy.

There was an earlier OP about Trump touting our military power with parades. When he shows up in a gaudy, gold braided uniform then we know the country has gone down the shitter.

Kind of like when I used to take long plane flights, and pretend that I was on the ground, having a picnic, or something, with my kids.

It gets me through the darker moments.
