The new edition of 'Obama: The Call Of History' by New York Times chief White House correspondent Peter Baker lays bare Obama's fury over the election results.

The book was originally released in July 2017 but has been updated with extensive new reporting - and the run through of election day is electrifying.

Obama arrogantly thought there was 'no way Americans would turn on him' even though Clinton was far from perfect

He likened himself to Michael Corleone in the Godfather and said he was handing power over to somebody who would destroy his legacy

White guilt? This isn’t 1969. How old are you anyway? Your thinking is bizarre.

Well, although I take this story and the book's author with a grain of salt, this is accurate. Trump's North Star has been to undo anything associated with Obama for no real reason.
