Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.
WaPo begs for Obama to come back and save us.

Mr. President, it is time. You must speak. Your country needs you.
Eleven summers ago, as you accepted the Democratic nomination for president, you announced: “Tonight, I say to the people of America, to Democrats and Republicans and independents across this great land: Enough. This moment — this election — is our chance to keep, in the 21st century, the American promise alive.” …
President Obama, I understand your reluctance to weigh in on Trump’s latest transgression. You are a respecter of norms, including the one dictating that former presidents steer clear of criticizing their successors. And for all the barriers you shattered, racism was never a topic upon which you seemed eager to hold forth.
But silence now is unacceptable. It is time to make yourself heard.

Maybe the WaPo is as bad at opening links as Hondo

I don't think a paper named after a slave owner has any right to ask anything of our 2nd black president.

President Obama, the Respecter of Norms...

They're addressing Obama as president and Trump as just Trump. Bozos and his WAPO clowns must have missed the last election.
