Vows to jump off political sidelines if incoming president goes against 'core values'
In his final news conference as president Wednesday, Barack Obama vowed to step off the political sidelines if incoming President Donald Trump dares to “round up” children of illegal immigrants, “roll back voting rights” or otherwise engage in “systemic discrimination.”
Obama offered hints about his post-White House plans when he indicated he would take a more activist role to defend “core values that may be at stake” under a Trump administration.
“If I saw systematic discrimination [is] being ratified in some fashion. I put in that category explicit or functional obstacles to people being able to vote, to exercise their franchise,” Obama said.
He added, “I put in that category institutional efforts to silence dissent or the press.”
But it was the so-called DREAMers, or children of illegal immigrants, who got Obama the most fired up.

Obummer will soon realize his power has been taken away. He can cry from the sidelines with the rest of the snowflakes. He created the Trump Presidency. Listening to Obummer from this point forward is only taking steps backwards. Obummer is now history because he had his chance and we all saw where that took the country.
