Oh man, can you imagine how that feels? What kind of thoughts would Obama have during his flight? What will the staff think of, saying their last goodbyes?

I can imagine Obama sitting in his airplane seat, and after takeoff, he lets go of a big sigh he's been holding for 8 years. It's the end of his era.

 

I fell down the stairs once as an actor.

Just notice that's literally on the opposite side of the country from DC...

"Trump and President Barack Obama will meet at the White House and ride to the inauguration together, as is traditional."

Genuinely sickening that Obama has to share a ride with Trump, a man who for years perpetrated a racist myth that he was born in Kenya, to his inauguration where this racist man will replace him as president.

I mean, does that not make you actually feel ill? Trump was the leader of a racist conspiracy movement that tried to claim Obama was an illegitimate president by saying he was born outside of the U.S and now Obama has to ride with this man to his inauguration.

It really does. All joking aside... this is like a bad dream, or an alternate reality. I can only imagine how profoundly sad this is, deep down, for Obama. He's amazing at keeping hope and optimism in his rhetoric for the American public, but I suspect deep down, he's extremely troubled by how things have turned out.

Truly sickening. 

I actually feel physically ill. 

I've been very invested in this election and this is so horrifying. 

Only in America will you go from electing the first African American president after a history of slavery and racial segregation to electing a man with no experience who's rhetoric gave validity to sentiments of racism and hysteria among the general population.
