For the record: “[Obama] has … for eight years rubbed white peoples’ nose in the stain of slavery. He’s done it for eight years. He’s about 150 years removed from slavery.

And until he leaves the White House, we are going to continue to have to put up with his nonsense.” —Sheriff David Clarke

Upright: “The fact that neither Al Gore nor Hillary Clinton was allowed to ascend to the highest office in the land is the very reason that the Electoral College will retain its place in the Constitution long after Gore and Clinton take their rightful place as the final question on Jeopardy: Name two people who lost presidential elections in spite of garnering the most popular votes. And don’t be too surprised if, say, ten years from now, the three finalists are stumped.” —Burt Prelutsky

Delusions of grandeur: “Since 2009, we’ve faced our fair share of challenges, and come through them stronger.

So I hope you’ll join me one last time [for my farewell address in Chicago on Jan. 10]. Because, for me, it’s always been about you.” —Barack Obama

Non Compos Mentis: “The president prides himself on the fact that his administration hasn’t had a scandal and that he hasn’t done something to embarrass himself.” —Valerie Jarrett

And last… “Putin wanted Hillary to lose the election because he was sick and tired of the Democrats letting him do whatever he wanted.” —Twitter satirist @weknowwhatsbest
