For Barack And Michelle There’s No Business Like Show Business

In Show Business ever since the Democratic National Committee Convention (DNCC) planted them as ‘Messiah & Wife’ in the public realm, the Obamas will make it official before August ends. “A certain former president and first lady have made their mark in Hollywood. (Washington Times, Aug. 8, 2019)

“The Obamas settling into new role as Netflix producers,” said The Hollywood Reporter — referring of course to former President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama, who signed an exclusive production deal with Netflix some 15 months ago, then formed a Los Angeles-based production company called Higher Ground.”

The Obamas long ago seized the moral high ground from which to lecture down to the rest of us. Having learned the ropes of Show Business through Hollywood friends like Johnny Depp and Tom Hanks at their White House Wednesday night parties, and through their daughter Malia, who interned with their one-time friend and campaign contributor Harvey Weinstein, the Obamas are the Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks of the 21st Century. The ambitious couple is about to celebrate their first release—a “documentary” titled “American Factory”, which the Hollywood Reporter says, will chronicle the culture clash between Chinese and American workers in a U.S. auto glass factory. Free entry to the next anti-Trump screed if you can guess which workers will be portrayed as the good guys. The Obamas’ Netflix release will debut before some 139 million subscribers in 190 countries on Aug. 21 and will also be screened in select theatres around the nation. Propagandizing the masses can be such fun when it’s Election Year. The world’s your very own oyster when you’e a “resistance” leader with Hollywood in your back pocket. Just as Barack Obama was selected for the 2009 Noble Peace Prize-- even though nominations for the award closed just a mere 11 days after he entered office-- ‘American Factory’, the “documentary” was already cited at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year.

The couple’s next project, “Bloom”, a dramatic series set in New York City shortly after World War II, is already in the works. Will “Bloom” show that the outbreak of World War II was ‘Nationalist’ President Donald Trump’s fault? The former White House residents, meanwhile, appear to be settling in at Netflix. “Netflix staffers describe the surreal experience of an office visit from the president, who reportedly enters the building via an underground tunnel connected to the parking garage,” the Hollywood Reporter said. Will Secret Service be bringing up the rear through the same underground tunnel, or eat paper bag lunches while waiting outside in the parking garage? But Netflixers already feel right at home with the ex-president and his wife:

“Some have found themselves in a spontaneous conversation with Obama about a project, while others are delighted when he remembers their name from a previous meeting. According to agents, meetings with Obama proceed surprisingly normally, because he makes small talk,” the industry publication advised.

Proving that there really is “no business like show business”, according to Deadline Hollywood, the Obamas have also signed an exclusive agreement with Spotify to produce podcasts and will voice some of the productions themselves. Private life is so much better for Prince Harry’s pal Barack Obama, who because he found life as president boring due to all those Situation Room meetings, now pitches up in the yachts of the fabulously rich and famous as “resistance leader” of the day. Obama’s found a much more self-gratifying way than the rock star status he had as America’s 44th by living in the heads of deplorables rent-free. There’s “no business like show business” and no two bigger stars than Barack and Michelle Obama. You won’t be able to turn them off if you don’t know what they’re up to, but if you’re at Netflix when they come up from the underground tunnel connected to the parking garage,you can always ask for their autographs.
