He’s back and divisive as ever!
Former President Obama was back on the campaign trail Thursday for the first time since his presidency, stumping for New Jersey Democrat Phil Murphy who is seeking the governorship. It didn’t take long for Obama to get around to his favorite topic: racism.
“But what we can’t have is the same old politics of division that we have seen so many times before; that dates back centuries,” Obama lectured, forgetting his eight years in office were some of the most divisive in history.
“Some of the politics we see now, we thought we put that to bed,” he continued. “I mean, that’s folks looking 50 years back!”
“It’s the 21st century, not the 19th century!” Obama blared, pleasing the crowd.
At one point, the crowd was heard chanting “four more years.” And if this is the best Democrats can do — stir up fake bigotry — then they will get what they ask for, but it’ll be four more years of Trump.
