Obama collecting $400,000 a night for speaking at banker conferences

When you're a semi-literate affirmative action baby who can't even add up a column of numbers but have a great speaking voice, this makes sense.

Obama Goes From White House to Wall Street in Less Than One Year

sep 18 2017 Hillary Clinton says she made a mistake when she gave speeches on Wall Street after leaving government. Taking money from banks, she writes in her new memoir, created the impression she was in their pocket.

Her old boss doesn’t seem to share her concern.

Last month, just before her book “What Happened” was published, Barack Obama spoke in New York to clients of Northern Trust Corp. for about $400,000, a person familiar with his appearance said. Last week, he reminisced about the White House for Carlyle Group LP, one of the world’s biggest private equity firms, according to two people who were there. Next week, he’ll give a keynote speech at investment bank Cantor Fitzgerald LP’s health-care conference.

Obama is coming to Wall Street less than a year after leaving the White House, following a path that’s well trod and well paid. While he can’t run for president, he continues to be an influential voice in a party torn between celebrating and vilifying corporate power. His new work with banks might suggest which side of the debate he’ll be on and disappoint anyone expecting him to avoid a trap that snared Clinton. Or, as some of his executive friends see it, he’s just a private citizen giving a few paid speeches to other successful people while writing his next book.

It's "semi-illiterate" you fucking idiot. Not semi-literate.
And no one becomes editor of the Harvard Law Review by being semi-illiterate.

You telling someone who went to Harvard that they're semi-illiterate it quite ironic, I would guess.

That Michelle transition needs to be paid for somehow.

O/P is the literacy-challenged one, not Obama. LMAO! Semi-literate is not a fucking word.

Hillary said it was a mistake for HER to give speeches to Wall St., but that is because she left politics and then came back to try running for president.

Obama has RETIRED as president, and will more than likely never run for anything again. Only one president that I can think of did that, and he went back to the Senate after the presidency.

And..................I highly doubt that he's getting 40,000/day, because I doubt that there are that many places willing to spend that money, nor do I think that Obama would be interested in giving a speech a day.

Yo....................OP........................hyperbole much?

 

[tigerred59]

I will never ever understand a group of nuts who couldn't wait for the brother to leave the white house, stress over him even more, now that he's gone....I know once you go black you never go back, but you homo's are over doing it......get off the man's nuts and find your own. Go Obama and I hope you get a zillion bucks....whity taught ya well.!!!

 

[defcon4]

It's legitimizing the payoff for what he did in 8 years. The cabal's appreciation for service.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Well good for him, all capitalist should be applauding him for being able to get paid so much, it is the American way!

Yeah, an we all know where Malonia tucks her dick, in a Channel bag!!

Remember a few years back when democrats were screaming about "income inequality"? HAHA

 

[easyt65]

At least he is not working for the KGB like Bill was DURING the campaign...

 

[ShootSpeeders]

He gave the bankers TRILLIONS of $ in bailouts and then he gave them 8 years of near zero interest rates. They made a fortune off him and it's time to pay back their lap-dog.

It's funny you say this. You'll scream and shout and admit there are problems here, but then give you another person, or another issue, and you'll make a 180 degree turn.

If these Presidents are lap dogs for the rich, why not change the system so the rich can't control politics so much?

It really bothers you that a black man commands that kind of money, doesn't it?

HAHAHA. That's a good one. What bothers me is Aunt Barry being such an obvious tool of the banksters.
