Remember when trumptv was mocked
quote:


Former President Barack Obama is in advanced negotiations with Netflix to produce a series of high-profile shows that will provide him a global platform after his departure from the White House, according to people familiar with the discussions.

Under terms of a proposed deal, which is not yet final, Netflix would pay Mr. Obama and his wife, Michelle, for exclusive content that would be available only on the streaming service, which has nearly 118 million subscribers around the world. The number of episodes and the formats for the shows have not been decided.

Curious to see if the pearl clutchers who cry about "presidential" will appear to admonish Obama for having a TV show

He already has a phone and a healthcare plan, so why not?

Would it be a documentary about stuttering?

Or “my black life with a tranny wife”

Why?
An exclusive program with a former president is huge—for any network/streaming service.
I can’t imagine any person in the industry would decline that opportunity.
I certainly won’t watch it, but I don’t blame Netflix a bit for working the deal if they can.

I predict that 90% of the series will just be talking shite about potus trump and race baiting.

Netflix is purportedly pumping their books to keep their credit rolling. Seems like an operation Obama would be involved in.

Won’t be a success. Will never work consistently and won’t show until afternoon.

This is perfect for Obama. His “shows” won’t be subjected to rating’s pressures or ridicule. The Hollywood elite and press will fall all over themselves touting the greatness of his shows.

The Clintons ran into trouble with their charity/foundation because enough people saw through that sham. Their foundation doesn’t accomplish anything. It’s nothing more than a front to enrich the Clintons.

Far fewer questions will be asked of those investing in a TV production.

Trump is in talks with NK regarding denuclearization, Obama is in talks with Netflix. Sounds about right!
