*President Barack Obama – or at least someone in his camp – tweeted a response to Clint Eastwood’s mocking of him with an interesting, cheeky response.
“This chair is taken,” said the tweet that came with a picture of himself in a chair. The president’s Twitter account, by the way, has 19 million followers.
As you can imagine, Eastwood’s strange attempt to “make the GOP’s Day” had Twitter and social media on fire Thursday evening.
As we reported, his rambling, sometimes confusing remarks pretended that Obama (depicted as an empty chair) was cursing Mitt Romney (and him) as he critiqued Obama’s policies. His deadpan delivery worked sometimes, but for the most part it didn’t and one was left wondering what the hell they were witnessing. In other words, it added up to one giant FAIL.
Within minutes Twitter was flooded with remarks in favor and making fun of the 82-year-old actor-director, reports The Wrap.
On top of that, a new Twitter account, “Invisible Obama,” was launched and quickly gathered 20,000 followers and counting.
lol!! at the response form the WH but I wish they would of come a bit harder and more vicious at EASTWOOD’S attempt at trying to clown te President.
Clint is the new Charlton Heston. They always need these old vain washed-up pathetic white men to appeal to their base.
Sheeeet you betta tell him!
Don’t COME FOR MY PRESIDENT! He’s an OLD KOOK! Needs to set down somewhere and continue to make movies and stay out of polictics! When he was born, slavery was probably still in effect!
