Cocktails & Popcorn: The #HeToo Movement - Trump, Obama & "Protected By The Highest Order" Are CADs

On this exciting episode of Cocktails & Popcorn, Trump forgot to mention that #HeToo has an Inspector General report, obstructing justice in his backpocket.

"Stop being a CAD and let the heavens fall."
Alas, it seems Obama is also experiencing his own #HeToo moment.

Perhaps, if Trump stops obstructing justice, just being an absolute CAD by refusing to pull that IG report from his backpocket, then we would find out who the other #HeToo is.

Trump suggests investigation into Barack and Michelle Obama's books, Netflix deals

President Trump targeted both of Barack Obama's post-presidency deals in a series of tweets on Monday, calling for an investigation into the former president's book and Netflix projects.

"House Judiciary has given up on the Mueller Report, sadly for them after two years and $40,000,000 spent - ZERO COLLUSION, ZERO OBSTRUCTION," Trump tweeted. "So they say, OK, lets look at everything else, and all of the deals that 'Trump' has done over his lifetime. But it doesn’t....

In April, the former president and Michelle Obama revealed the initial projects their production company, Higher Ground Productions, would be releasing as part of a new partnership with Netflix.

Spearheaded by Priya Swaminathan and Tonia Davis, the Obamas launched Higher Ground last spring in an effort to produce a diverse mix of content, which includes a scripted series, an unscripted series, a docu-series, as well as documentaries and features, according to a previous press release from the streaming giant, which announced the multi-year agreement.

And in 2017, it was revealed that the Obamas secured book deals with Penguin Random House. The former first lady's memoir "Becoming" -- which was published last year -- has already received a $65 million book advance. Meanwhile, it's been reported that Barack's memoir won't be released until next year.

Many social media users immediately reacted to Trump's tweets, stating that Obama "can make any deal he wants to make money."

"President Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama are private citizens entitled to enjoy their success. (And, both are very fine authors.) It’s the American dream," said another individual.
While others simply wanted to see #ObamaNetflix trending on Twitter. "Get the trend going #ObamaNetflix," said one person. "I'm in with this Obama Netflix trend! #ObamaNetflix," echoed another person.

Earlier this month, it was the name of their company. The legal team representing the Obamas filed a petition to cancel the trademark of an e-book publishing company called Higher Ground Enterprises, much to the chagrin of the publishing company.
