The former first couple got destroyed in ways they never saw coming after all the details got leaked. You’re going to love this.
Barack and Michelle Obama bought what is being described as a “mega-mansion” on the coast of Martha’s Vineyard. Multiple reports are confirming the Obamas are currently in escrow with Boston Celtics coach Wyc Grousbeck for his 6,900 square feet home which boasts 29 acres of beachfront property.
Wait, what? What about global warming? Aren’t the Obamas worried their new mega-mansion will sink into the ocean in 10 years? That’s exactly what conservative pundits are saying, and now poor Barack and Michelle have a lot of explaining to do.
“Now, some might see an awful lot of hypocrisy in a Global Warming believer like Obama purchasing a massive estate that will create an equally massive carbon footprint,” Breitbart reports. “Fair enough. But that only proves Barry’s a hypocrite, not that he’s a Global Warming Denier.”
“Investing some $15 million to live on an island home that sits right on the Atlantic Ocean…? You want to know what this is… That is not just the actions of a hypocrite; what we have here is a full-blown Global Warming Denier, a Climate Denier, someone who is so sure the sea levels will never rise, he’s backing up that certainty with $15 million,” Breitbart added.
According to the real estate listing, the mansion has “7 bedrooms, 8 baths, multiple entertaining spaces including a vaulted ceiling living room with stone fireplace, a Chef’s kitchen, and formal dining room surrounded by a wall of windows,” in addition to a pool, a jacuzzi, a garden, a private beachfront, and a boathouse.
The monthly payment of the house, assuming a standard 30-year loan, is listed at a staggering $63,969. Wow, that’s around what many middle-class Americans make in a year.
Yet, during a speech in South Africa last year, the president lamented the issue of income inequality and blamed wealthy Americans for living excessively lavish lifestyles.
Barry and Michelle, who just criticized wealthy people for their big houses and large carbon footprint, are now getting destroyed by Americans who are sick and tired of the double standard.
The Obamas are always “do as we say,” not “as we do.”
Tired of their utter hypocrisy, Babylon Bee’s Adam Ford pointed out: “Obama, 2008: When you spread the wealth around, it’s good for everybody Obama, 2010: At a certain point, you’ve made enough money Obama, 2019: I’ll take the $15 million Martha’s Vineyard mansion on 29 beachfront acres.”

Radio host Mark Simone wrote, “The Obama’s totally reject socialism and buy another mega-mansion – a $15 million dollar Martha’s Vineyard estate that they’ll only use a few weeks a year, in an attempt to set a new record for income inequality.”

“‘At a certain point, you’ve made enough money.’ – guy who got a $65M book deal then bought a 7-bdrm 7,000 sq-foot Martha’s Vineyard mansion on 29 acres worth $15 million,” jabbed the popular Twitter politico known as Razor.

“If I genuinely believed in 12 years coastal areas would be under water, I wouldn’t by a $15 million mansion on…Martha’s Vineyard,” said podcast host Amy Curtis. “Call me crazy, but it doesn’t seem like Obama is taking climate change all that seriously.”

“Poor investment. Martha’s Vineyard is literally going to be swallowed by the ocean if we don’t hand over all of our money and freedom to the government to stop Global Warming,” tweeted “The Red-Headed Libertarian.”

Besides getting wrecked by Americans on social media, Rush Limbaugh laid into the Obamas on his Friday show. “They don’t believe that the sea levels are gonna rise to swallow up Martha’s Vineyard any more than I do. And this proves it. It also illustrates why I thought Michelle (My Belle) O would not run [for president],” Limbaugh declared.
“They know that this whole climate change thing is nothing but a gigantic left-wing agenda-driven hoax! Seriously, folks! Seriously!” Rush added.
The former president lectured all of us about how we needed to spread the wealth around, and he sure tried to do just that. He gave away “Obama phones” and created the biggest taxpayer boondoggle with Obamacare. However, when it comes to his own millions, Barry from Hawaii isn’t about to live like a poor American. Hell, he and his beloved wife can’t even fathom living like middle-class Americans.
There would be nothing wrong with that if they hadn’t made their entire brand all about vowing to spread all of our wealth around. Making this doubly insulting is every time they warned Americans about so-called climate change and now they are sinking $15 million into a coastal property.
Barry and Michelle, sure do love capitalism. It’s so amusing coming from the same couple who had no problem making you and I feel guilty about how we lived our life. How we spent our few dollars after taxes. Now, they have lost any and all credibility they once enjoyed. In the end, they are just a couple of greedy leftists in name only who used liberal politics to make millions, and those who voted for them should feel duped — big time.
