Back in the Before Times (when everyone started getting Red Pilled) former President Barack Obama used to have a silver tongue, a magic ability to string words together that made people lose their reason and/or swoon. He won a Nobel Peace Prize on his magic abilities. He has this magic ability no longer. He is no longer sprinkled with stardust and he is just another average politician. He can still rake in the money, but not even that is the same.

Remember back in October 24 when Barack Obama was trying to shore up Kamala’s clearly flailing campaign? He tried lecturing young Black men who barely remember Obama was President and then they mostly remember the hype. From NBR “Obama, in blunt terms, tells Black men to get over their reluctance to support Harris”:

Obama made a surprise stop at a Pittsburgh campaign field office ahead of a rally in the city — where his party has been working hard to make gains in a race where polls show a razor-thin race between Harris and former President Donald Trump.

Recent polls show Trump has made inroads with Black male voters. Obama, the first Black president, said he wanted to “speak some truths” about that.

“My understanding, based on reports I’m getting from campaigns and communities, is that we have not yet seen the same kinds of energy and turnout in all quarters of our neighborhoods and communities as we saw when I was running,” he said.

That lack of enthusiasm for Harris, he said, “seems to be more pronounced with the brothers.”

He chided voters who were voting for Trump or not casting a vote at all.

“And you are thinking about sitting out?” he said. “Part of it makes me think — and I’m speaking to men directly — part of it makes me think that, well, you just aren’t feeling the idea of having a woman as president, and you’re coming up with other alternatives and other reasons for that.”

Arrogant, rude and condescending. That’s who Barack Obama has always been, but many had scales over their eyes. No mas. The scales have fallen away and Barry Soetoro been exposed. The Obama Bros just stared with annoyance at his arrogance. Then came this Fourth of July.

He was America's first black president. It could have been so significant…monumental! His stained legacy is all on him. He should just go away.

Barack Obama’s July 4th Message Slammed for Political Lecture, Skipping American Pride https://t.co/r9Q9RxUu4U via @lifezette

Stained by his own arrogance. From the article:

The former president shared the statement on Independence Day, prompting strong reactions across social media and from citizens who took issue with the tone and timing of his comments.

In a post to his X account on Friday, Obama wrote:

“Independence Day is a reminder that America is not the project of any one person. The single most powerful word in our democracy is the word ‘We.’ ‘We the People.’ ‘We Shall Overcome.’ ‘Yes We Can.’ America is owned by no one. It belongs to all citizens.”

He continued, “And at this moment in history—when core democratic principles seem to be continuously under attack, when too many people around the world have become cynical and disengaged—now is precisely the time to ask ourselves tough questions about how we can build our democracies and make them work in meaningful and practical ways for ordinary people.”

The former president did not mention America’s founding, the Declaration of Independence, or the significance of July 4th in his message. He instead focused on broader themes of democracy and civic engagement, which many users felt missed the moment entirely.

He misses the moment every time. Oops, he did it again. From Mediaite:

The 44th president spoke Friday evening at a fundraising event hosted by New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy (D) and his wife, Tammy Murphy, at their Red Bank, New Jersey home, according to a report by CNN’s Arlette Saenz. The fundraiser was described as an “intimate dinner” and raised $2.5 million for the Democratic National Committee, through in-person and online donations, a source told CNN. Part of those funds will be used to help the campaign of Rep. Mikie Sherrill (D-NJ), the Democratic nominee for governor.

Excerpts of Obama’s remarks, obtained by CNN, and include multiple quotes in which he directly addressed Democrats’ frustrations with President Donald Trump’s second term and other actions by Republicans at the state and federal level.

The solution, said Obama was to take action, reiterating his support for law firms, universities, and others targeted by Trump to fight back:

What’s being asked of us is make some effort to stand up for the things that you think are right. And be willing to be a little bit uncomfortable in defense of your values. And in defense of the country. And in defense of the world that you want to leave to your children and your grandchildren. And if we all do that, if we do our jobs over the next year and a half, then I think we will rebuild momentum and we will position ourselves to get this country moving in the direction it should.

“I think it’s going to require a little bit less navel-gazing and a little less whining and being in fetal positions. And it’s going to require Democrats to just toughen up,” he said, urging Democrats to avoid complacency and “do something,” because “what’s needed now is courage”:

The Mitchell Minute is angry with Obama for not speaking up more about Trump and his fascist movement.

My eyes rolled out of my head and headed East to Gatlinburg. These people are joking. Where have this Mr. Mitchell and Barack Obama been? Half of Democrat voters think Biden is compos mentos and the other half are out there doxing ICE agents and planning despicable things for Republicans.

But, for sure, Barack Obama doesn’t have the moral authority to lecture anyone. He and his super tedious wife need to stay out on Cape Cod.
