Obama Just Showed Trump How A REAL President Uses Twitter
President Obama just put our president-elect to shame on his favorite platform, taking to Twitter to share a wonderful New Year’s message of hope and to remind the American people of all the things we’ve accomplished together. President Obama’s inspiring words exude his genuine happiness at having made this country a better place, not for himself and not for the sake of accomplishment, but because he is truly pleased to make people’s lives better and to help put not just the nation but the whole world on track to a cleaner, happier, and more peaceful existence.
As we look ahead to the future, I wanted to take a moment to look back on the remarkable progress that you made possible these past 8 years.

The contrast between this and President-elect Donald Trump’s self-congratulating New Years message, which he taunts all his detractors and labels half the American population as “enemies” could not be more obvious. Trump, a narcissistic egomaniac, can only see the presidency and its responsibilities as a reflection of himself – that his performance will be a qualifier of his personal tremendousness and a measure of how wrong all the haters and losers were. The well-being of the American people don’t fit into that equation, and we should all be heartbroken to see a leader of such unsurpassed grace and vision be replaced by this digitally deficient vulgarian.
