Barack Obama and his wife Michelle have been slammed by his biographer for 'talking down' to voters in 'tone-deaf and clueless' preaching that harmed Kamala Harris' ill-fated presidential campaign.
The effect was so bad that – combined with Donald Trump's victory – it is likely to reduce the 44th president's political relevance to 'Bill Clinton levels', David Garrow said in an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com.
'People do not want to be talked down to, no matter who they are,' the 71-year-old Pulitzer Prize winner said.

Since Biden was unable to govern, everyone thought Obama was the "wizard " behind the curtain. If that is the case, Obama's legacy was totally destroyed on Nov. 5. No one pays attention to him or Michele any more. They are has-beens. It's time for the MSM to understand that.

I never understood their appeal. Just another DEI employee doing a half ass job. He needs to go back to whatever it is he does and she needs to go back to her garden.

Obama's alleged legacy dissolved while he was still in office. The debacle and lies over Obamacare, the Goebbels-like Affordable Care Act, the blatant support of terrorism and his communist and muslim tendencies made him a failed president and a joke in everyone's mind except for his worshiping masses. His condescending attitude and lack of masculinity will forever brand him as a weenie with big ears. His fragile ego, which kept him living in Washington for the next eight years to "finish the job" seals his deal forever. Obama is the "second biggest loser."

Obama's legacy to me was that he was our first President who was born in Kenya.

He sent the Harris Trojan Horse in to Biden but she couldn't get victory for the 0.

Hussein should be ashamed of his terms, not looking for a legacy.

His new biography should state exactly where he was born; it was VERY likely not Hawaii.
Of course he does not know, but his family does.

You have to remember that BO was NEVER any good about campaigning for anyone but himself. It's all about his EGO! His performance for Kamala was not surprising, especially since he didn't want her to be the candidate in the first place. His scolding was not new either. When things aren't going his way he can downright nasty.
It was nice for BO to wipe himself off the stage. The Leftist place that Biden took the country was where BO WANTED to go but he knew he wouldn't get reelected if he did. Turns out he was right, Biden/Harris was kicked out. But BO stepped in the poo when he did such a lousy job.
Yes, BO's legacy of corrupting the bureaucracy is about to be undone. Trump KNOWS that BO's manipulations and people need to be completely torn out. Trump's 10 step plan is a good start and Trump is VERY willing to say "You're fired" and the SCOTUS has clearly stated he is within his power to do exactly that. That will greatly diminish BO's ability to pick up the phone and call someone in the bureaucracy to start bad things happening. Whatever is left of the dem party will know his influence is diminished and, with the performance he just turned in, will be glad to wash their hands of him. Further, as Trump cleans up Washington, it will become clear as to how it was corrupted and WHO (BO) did it. Depending on what is uncovered, BO could become toxic.
BO's legacy might not only be erased, he may be exposed as the criminal he has been.

The Zero's "legacy" is division, increased racial hatred, economic destruction, mayhem inside the military officer corps, and overall ....just damage and harm to the USA.

History tends to reveal the truth, over time all the hype and cover-ups are lost revealing that the emperor has no clothes.

His legacy was built with low information, no information, and lies.
It is being recognized for what it is.

Maybe now he can work on that presidential library in Chicago instead of interfering in the governance of the country.

As far as I am concerned, Zero's legacy is assured... as the most Destructive pResident in American history. His own actions and those of his puppet the HairSniffer, did immeasurable harm to America, and the proposed actions of his follow-on puppet HeelZup, may have tipped America into a decline from which it could not recover.
As it is, Trump and his team have quite a job on their hands, everywhere they look.
Let us ALL pitch in as we can, in ways great and small, to restore America to, as Ronaldus Maximus described it, "The Shining City on the Hill".
