Former President Barack Obama turned up the chutzpah to 11, warning guests at the Obama Foundation’s Democracy Forum that “one side” might try to weaponize the federal government to maintain power.
The fact that the Democrat party blatantly did exactly that, most likely at his direction, right before our very eyes over the past four years, seemingly escaped him.
“What happens when the other side has repeatedly and abundantly made clear they’re not interested in playing by the rules?” he asked.
“It’s a problem. And when that happens, we fight for what we believe in,” added Obama.
“There are going to be times, potentially, when one side tries to stack the deck and lock in a permanent grip on power, either by actively suppressing votes, or politicizing the armed forces, or using the judiciary or criminal justice system to go after their opponents.”
Obama’s Hypocritical Election Sermon at ‘Democracy Forum’

Barack Obama And The Democrats Did All Of That And Then Some
Go ahead and reread those words. Watch that video again. Barack Obama is literally describing the Biden administration and then, at a so-called “democracy” forum, pretending it will be the Trump administration that is the problem.
Under Biden – Using the criminal justice system to go after your opponents? Check. Stacking the deck through illegal immigration to maintain power? Check. Making the armed forces woke? Check.
These comments by Obama are, in a word, disgusting.
Worse, he seems to be making a threat that, considering President-elect Donald Trump has literally had to dodge bullets from incendiary rhetoric, should not be taken lightly.
“In those circumstances, pluralism does not call for us to just stand back and say ‘well, I’m not sure, that’s okay’,” the former President insisted. “In those circumstances, a line has been crossed and we have to stand firm and speak out and organize and mobilize as forcefully as we can.”
The line was crossed already.
A Raging Hypocrite
Obama, the hypocrite that he is, also indicated that living in a democracy means “we all have to find a way to live alongside individuals and groups who are different than us.”
This comes after President Biden referred to Republicans as “garbage” while Vice President Kamala Harris portrayed them and Trump as comparable to Hitler and Nazis.
Barack’s comments are not only blatant projection, but the final gasps of a shell of a man trying to hold onto the power that he lost in spectacular fashion on November 5th.
Biden was Obama’s third term. Harris was meant to be his fourth. Now, he’ll never have as much power in Washington again. And he’s scared.
