Last week, Barack Obama gave some advice to his party, and it’s astonishing how quickly his words turned into a self-inflicted political wound. He was once hailed as the Democrat Party’s unifying figure, but Obama’s recent scolding of his own party’s base didn’t just flop — it sparked a backlash even his defenders can’t ignore.
As PJ Media previously reported, during a ritzy gathering of party elites in New Jersey, Obama dismissed the rampant frustration among liberals, telling them to show “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.

And he won a peace prize too. After 8 years in office, actually 12 including Biden’s puppet master, we know him well and it’s not pretty.

This article reminded me of the Occupy Wall St. mob which 0bama initially embraced and surreptitiously agitated even further by enlisting his Union Thug buddies to join in, to the point it got so out of control it became a national crime wave. 0bama eventually had to use federal law enforcement to quell his mess (which has now been memory-holed by the Democrat media).
Agitator-in-Chief 0bama did the very same thing with his political party, radicalizing it into little more than a mob of misguided misfits, prone to violence, who demand goodies without any need to work for them.
0bama crowed about “Fundamentally Transforming” our country, but the only thing he actually transformed was the Democrat Party by turning it into a cult of infantile, abject ignorance and destroying it.
Nice work, Barry!

'Get in their face' and now 'Toughen up'. Obama said both. We had a pResident stoking internal conflict. He's been out of office ten years, and he's still sowing conflict. The guy wants the nation divided. A divided enemy is more easily defeated. Obama: The first American President that was anti-American.

The sooner it gets started the sooner it will be over. Sometimes only knocking heads and worse is necessary to fix things.

He is so arrogant it drips off of him when he walks. Like Mikey, he believes his own media press about how great he is. He's not. Nor is Mikey. Her major flop with the podcast should have told them no one wants to see or hear her. And Barry pretends to be a learned elder statesman. And there is no 'divided country.' This was a lie started by the democrats to steal elections. A few million extra illegals voting they way they are told helped. But real Americans are not as divided as they pretend we are.

What's funny is that BO has ALWAYS been about BO. He was terrible for the party and they bled elected members while he was in office. Sure they kept coming back to him, because he was the President and because he is Black. To reject BO then would have imploded the dem party.
Now the face of the party is hard Left and BO shunned that role because it wouldn't have worked for him then. The more moderate aspects of the party have been shattered by policy failure and sheer ineptitude. After his BOCare fiasco, his administration became impotent, a foreshadow of Biden's inability to govern. Beyond that, it is now clear that BO corrupted government in an attempt to stop Trump. Worst of all, he failed at that as well.
Worst of all, BO's election brought in an air of transcendence for liberals. Finally, they could take control. By the end of his term, he was a major disappointment and Trump pushed the government to the Right, something the dems thought they would never have to deal with again. BO was/is a failure and that is totally unacceptable to the Left.

When your opponent is digging himself into a hole, don't stop him, just hand him a bigger shovel.

That must be the reason why Obie groveled at the feet of Big Mike the other day in an effort to patch up his “white girl fling” with one of his “Friends” named, Jennifer.
Unfortunately for BHO, he no longer has the widespread support of the “DNC propaganda machine,” who would fawn over his every move. In fact, most of those propaganda outlets have either changed ownership, or been successfully sued by right-wing persons or organizations over their bias, or they’ve hired new staff with new attitudes toward the “revolutionaries” of the Dem party. For Barry, as the train conductor might say, “Next stop, Divorce Court!”

Toughen up?
You first, Mr. Rich Liberal.
Pick up a Defund The Police sign and take to the streets.
Chain yourself to an ICE facility fence and demand justice.
Open your mansions to multiple families of illegals.
No? Why am I not surprised.
Go back to building your monument to your ego, aka, a library.

Obama is being exactly who he’s always been. A self-righteous narcissistic snake. They just don’t like it when he turns on them. Now they have to contend with AOC and Jasmine Crockett who think they are the shining lights of the Democrat Party. The Party knows better but feel forced to play along. More popcorn please.

Maybe the dingbats are seeing what we all saw in 2008: The clothes have no emperor.
You'll never convince me that Obama and especially his hideous whining victim "wife" were ever as popular as the media made them out to be. Any seemingly-sane Democrat, which Obama came off as at the time, could have beaten those two idiots the GOP ran in 2008 and 2012. Add that to the "see, I'm not racist!" white liberal vote, and done deal.
