71. I think he cares very much

Wed Aug 30, 2017, 03:05 PM

Aug 2017

And the reason is he's a major narcissist-- everything revolves around him. And if his fans don't number in the millions, he's bummed.

He's so jealous of President Obama because he (Obama) made it look easy-- and we all know it wasn't. PBO genuinely loved being President but it wasn't an ego trip. He wanted to make positive and constructive changes to our country (and did). He worked long and hard to be the very best.

And he was.

"sigh"
