Michelle and Barack Obama appeared to take aim at Donald Trump in a new podcast launched by the former first lady this week. The couple were discussing America’s current political discontent amid protests and the coronavirus crisis when they appeared to deride the White House incumbent’s apparent inability to “read and know history”.(Snip) “As a former president who reads and knows history,” said Ms Obama, in an apparent swipe at Mr Trump. “As that person, you understand the arc of progress”. She told listeners: “Let’s just take a moment to pause and think about that”. “We are moving towards more inclusivity,

Maybe Obama should have read the constitution to understand history better. The main difference between Obama and Trump Is Trump believes in equal rights and Obama is for special rights.

I like the "Mike" reference. It fits with its adam's apple. But let's not refer to the other Obama without preceding it with "Traitor."
As in "Traitor Obama."

Is this the Onion?
Barack knows history?
Preposterous. Factually false. Contemptible. Absurd.
One thing is certain: we do NOT know his history. Any of it. What we know is a myth. What we know has been fabricated, pure and simple. What we know is to history as military music is to music. Which is to say, nothing.

The ultra-liberal UK Independent would definitely have to characterize this as a swipe at Trump.
Not worth reading.

I’ll never forget how he said “corpseman.” Such a scholar! Not being an American caused him to have problems with basic words, in spite his wordprompter eloquence.

Perhaps Obama could share his vast knowledge of history with his army who are tearing down statues since they obviously have no ida who these people even were.

Of course it was a dig against Trump, setting aside that Affirmative Action Mike LaVaughn Robinson's thesis at Princeton is illiterate racist twaddle. But how about this erudite banter between the two Marxist insurrectionists... it's OK to say "negro," or are only bLACK people allowed to say that? FTA: "'It was like you were running away from the money, I was like "what is wrong with this negro?" she said, with him laughing in the background."

He knows as much about history as my dog. The man is a complete fraud. Remember when he said he was going to campaign in all 57 states. Complete idiot. He and his wife together don't form a complete brain.

I don't think the Kenyan is a fan of history. He spent a couple million covering up his history and college records. He is a muslim communist, and if he really knew history then he is twice as evil as we thought he was because history shows how communists have killed millions of their own citizens.

The Obama's both bastardize the "arc of (fill in the blank," which is an ignorant misquote of MLK, who had quoted a white minister, Theodore Parker, when he said, "the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice." King's touchstone for a moral universe was Jesus Christ, not Allah or some democrat. King also knew that there were evil men on earth that would have to beaten back and that justice was not pre-ordained, thus the "arc of history" or the "arc of progress" has to be won. The Nazi evil had to be beaten back; the arc of history won no battles. The Obama's represent a similar evil that must be beaten back.

Well, Trump is a President who knows and understands business and the economy.
Obama's understanding of that gave us "Cash for Clunkers" and federal grants to Solyndra and other bankrupt failures.
And what history Trump knows sure as hell didn't come from Howard Zinn.
