NYTs – President Obama said in a radio interview airing on Monday that Donald J. Trump, a leading contender for the Republican presidential nomination, is exploiting the resentment and anxieties of working-class men to boost his campaign.
Obama says this as if he wasn’t an exploiter of anxieties in 2007. So over the top was Obama’s rhetoric that he had Peggy the Plumber breathless with joy that she wouldn’t have to worry about paying her bills anymore. A Saint Barack was on its way. But this rescuer’s keg of brandy was empty.
Trump is actually running on the promise of undoing the failed policies Obama put in place. This is a legitimate platform, one that actually secretly appeals to democrats who do not want to say out loud that Obama has been a disaster, lest they be thought of as a racist.
Mr. Obama also argued that some of the scorn directed at him personally stems from the fact that he is the first African-American to hold the White House.
Yes, because if Obama was white his failures would be seen as successes.
If Obama was white, the right-wing would absolutely love Obammunism.
Demographic changes and economic stresses, including “flatlining” wages and incomes, have meant that “particularly blue-collar men have had a lot of trouble in this new economy,
“Demographic changes.”
Obama acknowledges that he’s aware that importing brown people, Muslim people, into America will cause anxiety for white America. But he doesn’t care. This is what fundamentally changing America into his vision was all about. But we can’t even say this is a result of Obama’s blackness. The browning of a white country is a leftist obsession. Look at white leaders in Europe and what they are doing to white culture. White culture, for reasons that are unclear, is expendable.
… [blue-collar men] are no longer getting the same bargain that they got when they were going to a factory and able to support their families on a single paycheck,” Mr. Obama said in the interview with National Public Radio.
The outgoing 2 term president is saying that it’s “exploitative” for a would-be president to talk about his economic failures? Would Obama go so far as to say that Trump is being “audacious”?
“You combine those things, and it means that there is going to be potential anger, frustration, fear — some of it justified, but just misdirected,” the president added.
Obama is saying that middle-class white people with a gripe about the economic situation they find themselves in have no gripe with him. If you do it’s misdirected. It’s somebody else’s fault. Most likely Bush.
“I think somebody like Mr. Trump is taking advantage of that. That’s what he’s exploiting during the course of his campaign.”
Obama, be a man for Allah’s sake and just say it- “TRUMP IS EXPLOITING MY FAILURES.”
Obama: the ultimate Leftist (he’s a VICTIM!)
“the fact that he is the first African-American to hold the White House” and probably the last AA in that house for a few (hundred) decades
They should change their name to Goatzlums!
Sorry, posted in the wrong place!
Oh please. “Working-class men” is a gay bar.
obama’s EPA would nail Santa for having coal in his slay.
Obama trolled Man’s Country pretty hard back in the day, but he’s been trolling Working Class Man like he’s Freddy Mercury for the last seven years.
I hope we have a little peace on earth for a couple of weeks now that Odumbo the crumby creepo is in Hawaii…we paid enough to get him there for the seventh year in a row.
I’d gladly pay Colombo as much to prove him guilty of all the crimes he’s pulled against this country.
I read his speech transcript earlier. I was stunned by what he said.
He pretty much admitted his administration has been a total disaster for the average American.
This guy’s speech writers are either completely ignorant, or are now rubbing America’s nose in his shit.

Just a look inside how Machiavellian and deceitful the whole operation has become. I would not mind it so much if so many damn good Americans didnt die as a result of these globalist nwo chess players thinking they can control the planet. But its not our interest they have in mind, its theirs. Tyranny that is.
Our own military commanders having to end run odinga/clinton because he is a danger to our country.
It’s the latter.
This is the “rubbing our nose in it” phase. Check out Schumer and Murray and Obama running to the media last week and making Paul Ryan look like an even bigger asshat than he is by gloating about the victory he had just handed them with his Omnibus budget.
Democrats are classless, ungrateful, mean-spirited, vindictive dicks.
It’s all about redistribution. And you need a really good tan to participate. Look who he’s letting out of jail. Better yet look at his department of justice.
Figures the only ones who hate this are the racists and bigots of the
ignorant right. Still can’t take having a black man as President. Obama
calls the racist racist and the racist get upset.
Trump’s
rhetoric is like a dog whistle for racists, separatists and
isolationists everywhere. They’ve been scared for a long time of not
being the majority anymore and will fight tooth and nail against it
happening. hey righties..doesn’t this just about prove Trump and the GOP
is racist?
i mean all the racists like cliven bundy..ted nugent.. the KKK are endorsing Republicans..
The same people who are wailing about ISIS now are the same people who were petrified about the imminent Ebola epidemic. And look how that was resolved. Not by fear, but by rational, measured judgment.
The media plays to your fear people. ISIS is not an existential threat to America. How many people have actually been killed from terrorist attacks on US soil since 9/11? Compare that to how many deaths caused by Americans shooting up schools and movie theaters and other acts of violence in inner city neighborhoods. Thousands. And how many deaths caused by heart disease and cancer? Millions. Look at those numbers and should you really be worried about ISIS?
He’s certainly not a practicing Muslim.
Has he made the econmy worse….No
Has he made healthcare worse….NO
Has he made climate change worse by ignoring it….NO
Has he made race relations work because bigots like you can’t deal with the fact that a Black man is in the white house….NO
Can Barack Obama be impeached for the damages he has done?
Assuming there was damage, which you cannot seem to name, no.
Why does Obama hate America?
He does not.
What did we as a country ever do to him?
We, as a Country, did nothing special to him that we did not do to every other man of color.
Why is Barack Obama an evil man?
No, this is not really true. He is a man who makes mistakes but does more good for the Country than most men.
Why Is Barack Obama destroying America?
Again,
assuming since you have make no attempt to pick out anything he is
personally responsible for that may be hurting the County, it would be
from simple, human error.
Is Barack Obama a Muslim?
No.
Why does Barack Obama hate America?
No.
Is Barack Obama an Traitor?
No.
Is Barack Obama a Communist?
No.
Why is Barack Obama a terrorist?
In
America, even though we have the largest military might in history and
send robots to kill individual people based on the political decisions
made thousands of miles away, we do not call ourselves terrorists. He is
the commander in chief and was legally elected to office in a
democracy. Any terror he causes comes from the will of the people.
“Overall, do you think the U.S. military response to ISIS has been too aggressive, not aggressive enough, or about right?”
Too aggressive Not aggressive enough About right Unsure

You know who got the worst end of the deal in these 0webama Years..The KKK…I mean those poor bastards are democrats…Yet they have to support this ….er “Person” …talk about a conflict of interest…Throw in the muslim side…and You can see why membership is down..
I think this troll broke the record for the longest rambling of utter nonsense written on IOTWReport.
There is a big difference between thinking someone is stupid because they are black, and someone being stupid while they are black.
The former is bigoted, the latter is not.
The left relies on assholes like you to run out all over social media to claim anyone questioning Obama’s transformative policies to be doing it for racist reasons.
Ain’t gonna work, sweetness.
Obama is a leftist shitstain while being black, not because he is black.
Get over it.
You have too much invested in Obama because he’s black. All your arguments revolve around skin color.
I have too much invested in America to give a shit whether it’s a black man, or not, fundamentally transforming America.
So who’s the racist?
Be gone now.
You’re a one trick pony.
“exploiting the resentment and anxieties of working-class men”
The most important tool found in every leftist’s and community organizer’s toolbox.
Amazingly trolls don’t venture to these parts too often.
They are generally handed their asses back in their hipster hats.
You couldn’t polish one of Ted Nugent’s guitars.
That man can ride, rope, hunt, hammer and paint a masterpiece before you get out of your 0bama-pajama-boy panties.
You are more than welcome here though.
You are a train wreck of thought that we all need to witness.
It keeps us sharp and amused.
So in effect, your douchiness is free entertainment.
Thank you.
It is rare I am so entertained by such foul stench of stool.
Pitiful though. I can’t even give him a score of “2” for that weak tantrum. What a waste of font. Must be Common Core educated. No talent, no skill, no common sense …
“the first African-American to hold the White House.”
Actually, the first half-black communist racist moslem-jihadi-loving bitch to occupy the office of president.
So he can take that worn out race card and shove it up his worn out Marxist faggot bung hole; if he can keep it from falling out. Big ass cork, maybe.
