obama trump wine

Hypocrisy, much?

HT Weasel Zippers:

Via TPM:

“Has anybody bought that wine? I want to know what that wine tastes like,” a laughing Obama said at a Democratic Party fundraiser Saturday. “I mean, come on. You know that’s like some $5 wine. They slap a label on it. They charge you $50 and say it’s the greatest wine ever.”

“Come on,” Obama said, still laughing. “Oh, boy. Selling wine. That’s not what we’re for. Couldn’t make it up.”

….The president ridiculed Trump’s products, though without naming the Republican, during two days of fundraising in the Republican state. After highlighting some of his own record Friday for a crowd of cheering supporters in Austin, Texas, Obama started in on Trump’s steaks

“Imagine what Trump would say if he actually had a record like this. Instead of selling steaks,” Obama said. “Has anybody tried that wine? How good can that wine be?”

Obama faulted the GOP presidential candidates for “tripping all over themselves” to talk down an economy he says is the “bright spot” of the world.

“America is pretty darn great right now,” he said, riffing on Trump’s “Make America Great Again” campaign slogan. Obama said the focus of the race to succeed him after two terms in office should be on “how we can do even better, build on the progress we’ve made, not reverse it.”

“Instead, we’ve got a debate inside the other party that is fantasy and schoolyard taunts and selling stuff like it’s the Home Shopping Network,” he said.

    If Trump doesn’t market a cake, he should. Just so Obama can say; Let the voters eat Trump Cake.

    At least Trump made wine, and sold it to willing customers. Somebody’s got to make something. Obama’s got nothing but an aptitude for transforming other people’s wine into low-grade urine. His customers buy it and drink it only because they’ve got a gun pointed at their heads. #ThankYouSirMayIHaveAnother

    Judge Napolitano has column at Fox and in Wash. Times on the history of the Heckler’s Veto in America. 70 yrs. ago, 1946 Chicago, Father Arthur Terminiello, gave ‘an incendiary speech’ on Truman was soft on Communism. Riot broke out, he was arrested & convicted of inciting riot. Overturned by SCOTUS.
