Blaming Obama for his failed 16+ million dollar attempt at entering the algae-based bio fuel industry.

How sad.

    Obama hasn’t been president for a decade. This is so stupid I feel like my brain cells are committing suicide.

    This is fucking trump in a nutshell. Cares about appearances and looks while everyone in the country can’t afford rent and food.

    Look, I know a lot of people will find this absurd cause Trump blames people for his failings all the time. But did anyone consider that Obama could have been there with a fleet of dump trucks pouring algae into the water in the middle of the night? He could be the next Banksy because he’s so good at covert missions! Wait, let’s make him our next super-spy (American James Bond). Also, he stole some jewels[0].

      Exactly. I still wonder how they pulled it off to make it look like Obama was in the US, while he took down Osama. Also why did they send a whole Seal team with him? Feels like a waste of taxpayers money.

    Classic narcissistic bullshit. When you cause a problem, blame literally anyone else and never accept responsibility since only weak men do that.

    I’m not a chemist or even a pool guy… but isn’t algae automatic with any long-standing pool of water that isn’t chlorinated? What did they expect? Why are they even angry?

      I’m no expert, but I think they were supposed to coat the base of the pool with something and apparently it was a shit job and that’s why the algae

    Incredible, just few hours ago I read a sarcastic piece how Trump will blame this mess on Obama. And now he did it for real.

    Nothing new, but this orange piece of shit is the bigest joke the human race has ever brought up. And americans voted him into office… TWICE. 10 facepalms a second are not enough for this epic failure…

      During the Bush administration, they blamed EVERYTHING on Clinton, and by the second term, people were pretty sick of it.

      Then Katrina came along, and the administration’s response was appallingly terrible, and they were getting called out from every direction.

      Finally they tried to blame Clinton for the response somehow, after Bush was into his second term, and the people weren’t having it. It was the final straw. The response was so negative, that if Katrina had happened during his first term, there is no way he would have been reelected.

      They couldn’t blame Clinton after that, and the Bush legacy became that the corruption, negligence, and incompetence of the Bush administration led to the avoidable deaths of over 10,000 Americans (and countless foreign nationals), and the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression.

        He didn’t cheat. Biden didn’t cheat, either. What is wrong with you people?

        They don’t need to cheat. Money= win. No intrigue needed.

        He cheated and rigged the election twice.

        Three times, if you count 2020. Although, there’s a certain irony in the election where he had the most control over the outcome being the one he lost.

        So much of 2016 and 2024 were the end result of policy changes Democrats oversaw and facilitated. 2024 was exceptionally galling, as Harris lost states her downticket party allies won, entirely because she’d chosen to take advice from reactionary #NeverTrumpers over her own popular party faithful.

        Even if, big enough of a margin would have to vote for him to hide the cheating. This sucker doesn’t deserve 1 vote, but has gotten a big chunk of legit votes regardless.

      I’m a bit sceptical… Who wrote this article and what were it’s sources? Could it be AI with The Onion as a source? Wouldn’t be the first time a satirical article was used as a source for a real news paper.

    According to data found online about controlling alge in pools with H2O2, they’d need 1800 gallons of H2O2 to treat the reflecting pool.

    Here’s one:

      I doubt it was this, but I hope Obama left one minor prank on his way out, like a whoopie cushion, or an upside down desk drawer.

      Obama leaves a letter on the desk for Trump’s first day. It reads:

      "Mr. President,

      On this, your first day in office, congratulations again on your victory. Although it’s clear to us both by now that we may never see eye-to-eye on many important issues, I want to express my hope for your success in this new position. Very few people will ever understand the challenges endured while carrying the weight of a nation, if not the entire free world, on one’s shoulders like we do. Along those lines, I humbly offer you my full support, putting aside whatever differences we might have, in the interest of serving our shared and highest value, the well-being and advancement of this great country. Should you ever want it, I am prepared and willing to give whatever assistance possible with utmost diligence and discretion.

      We’re all counting on you. Good luck!

      Sincerely,

      Barack Obama

      P. S. I left a little something in the upper right-hand drawer just to show there’s no hard feelings."

      After reading it, Trump opens the drawer and hundreds of marbles spill out along with a note card.

      I think this why he’s so mad at Obama.
