Everybody shut up about whose house it is, damn. I'm trans, I fucking love this. I wish Obama could be re-elected

[elijahsharp]

To all the people saying, "It's the people's house!" If that's so, go try to live there and see what happens...

[Jennifer-drmd]

Came here after the exchange between trump and reporters after the midterms.

So many keyboard warriors. Let's see who would hear you talk when someone interrupts you. Talk about more serious matters people.

[jofferhandles]

Only had to ask 4 times for him to be removed

[blitzwarzone]

You voted him in... that's the house of the POTUS... everyone should be quiet with the "it's the peoples house"...

[psgirlnow]

I miss this Guy!!! His quick Witt and gracious demeanor outdoes anyone I have been alive to see as President!! Obama was the very best of us!!! And it shows right here!!! Wish we could keep him I indefinitely but I do hope he is enjoying a full life with his Fam once again Best pres ever!!! He raised the bar of what a President of the US should have character and grace - negotiating skills and always wanting to strive for peace and well being of the American People FIRST and Foremost!!!

[shoominati]

And so he has every right to say... If it were me, I'd have had the dude removed.

[peterlee]

That's right Biden, they're in my house haha :)

[nethacker]

What is it that Obama said that caused the heckling?

[TuMAnu]

"You're in my house."

- Obama -

[zevulum]

Everyone is so damn disrespectful to Obama. it sucks and is quite saddening. Do you really need to go that far?

[Poopybuttman]

Obama is the first black president

Trump is the first orange president

[ChiefofGeneralSfaff]

Please don't tell me that Obama is mildly intoxicated?

[CRUZADOR]

So sad they didn't chant "USA! USA!! USA!!!".

[majorpwner]

He couldn't be more wrong, and I couldn't be more ashamed of the crowd cheering for him. HE was in OUR house... not the other way around.

[ElizabethTyler-rvlk]

No they are in the United States of America's House you are a renter

[DiggerjohnKansas]

@ Roronoa “mumps” Zoro it is NOT "his house". Andrew Jackson proclaimed it the "People's House" in 1829. You are NOT a conservative, and I am certain I studied more history than you have.

[ROCKLIKEACOBB]

This is "his" house?  and "shame on you"?  Seems the only time you appreciated freedom of speech is when it speaks in your favor.

[XuizElLoko]

Of course he knows it isnt his house, it was a joke, even a spanish guy like me can see that
