President Obama is overseas showing the world that Obamacare covers compunction bypass surgery. In Greece as part of his “Barack tries to explain Trump to the world” tour, Obama proved that any self-awareness he might have once had long ago is getting as crumbled and grown over as the Delphi Theater by warning politicians against the use of divisive rhetoric while blaming unrest on the streets of U.S. cities on Republicans who opposed many of his healing initiatives.

Obama also offered Greece his services as a financial adviser:

U.S. President Barack Obama, on a visit to Greece, cautioned European leaders on Tuesday against relying only on austerity to tackle the debt woes of struggling economies and also urged greater solidarity with Athens on the migrant issue.

On his last trip to Europe before handing over power to Donald Trump in January, Obama praised Greece’s efforts to reform its economy and said the United States stood “shoulder to shoulder” with its NATO ally through the challenges ahead.

Greece, whose economy has shrunk by about a quarter during seven years of grinding recession, hopes Obama will be able to persuade its foreign creditors to restructure some of its debt, which stands at nearly 180 percent of national output.

“We cannot simply look to austerity as a strategy,” Obama said after talks with Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras.

Right, “stop spending so damn much money” is such a stupid solution to problems caused by spending so damn much money.

Good luck with that debt-busting advice, Greece. Here’s your financial adviser’s updated LinkedIn resume:
