And we found out from Donna Brazile's book that Obama left office with the DNC $24 million in debt—$15 million in bank debt and more than $8 million owed to vendors after the 2012 campaign.
It's not that Obama didn't fundraise for state parties, it's that he totally bankrupted the DNC during his two terms in office.
This led to Hillary Clinton buying out the DNC debt in exchange for operational control of the DNC's financial operations, which she used to starve the Sanders campaign of cash during the 2016 primary. Clinton went on to lose to Donald Trump, Sanders complained about unfair treatment by the DNC, Debbie Wasserman-Schultz was forced to step down as DNC Chairwoman, Donna Brazile was named the intermim DNC Chairwoman promising Sanders to get to the bottom of it, Brazile found the contract negotiated by Marc Elias of Perkins Coie giving Clinton control of the party, Obama and Clinton pushed the Trump-Russia Collusion Hoax to change the narrative away from Clinton, and that started the ball rolling on why the Democrat party finds itself in the mess it's in today.

Every idea and plank of the Democrat party stinks on ice. They want to replace our government with the same sort of system that North Korea has but with them in charge. They want to reduce our standard of living to something like you would have found in 1915. They want to eliminate the God given rights codified and affirmed in the Bill of Rights. They want to overrun the country with third world parasites who will contribute nothing, but can be relied on the vote Democrat in perpetuity. Etc. only academics, government employees and other deadbeat drones who suck the taxpayers dry have a logical reason to vote Democrat. Not sure why anyone else does, but plenty do. You cannot hate Democrats enough
It is a crying shame. Every goal could be reached, every dream realized.
But they are like a bunch of old ladies late for church too busy bickering amongst themselves on whose fault it is they are late to actually go to the church.
It is wonderful that Obama and his team are being blamed for Kamala’s loss. I can’t wait to see what political genius emerge for the Dems 2026 and 2028. This ought to be good.
Clint Eastwood was correct Obama was always an empty chair.There was never a great and powerful OZ.The democrats have always been a mirage of corruption and thieves. Rock bottom is their baseline.
Compared to the current set of Rat politicians, Obama is a Conservative. Can’t have that now.
