Former President Barack Obama said Republicans made white men think of themselves as victims Wednesday - and that Donald Trump's surprise success with Hispanic voters was partly because of his appeal to evangelical voters.
He explained in an interview Wednesday with The Breakfast Club that what motivates people to vote is often about 'the stories that are being told.'
'What's always interesting to me, is the degree to which we've created, you've seen created, in Republican politics, this sense that white males are victims. They're the ones who are like under attack,' Obama noted. 'Which doesn't jive with both history and data, and economics.'
Obama was trying to explain to hosts Charlamagne tha God, DJ Envy and Angela Yee what motivated Americans in this past election to vote for President Donald Trump.
'The question though is, you still had 70 million people voting for a government that I would say objectively has failed miserably in handling just basic looking after the American people and keeping them safe. Why is that?' Obama mused.
He had just been speaking about the coronavirus pandemic, saying that if Trump had kept some of the pandemic infrastructure in place from the Obama administration, 'We would have saved some lives.'
Obama then pointed to the broader political narrative.
'The story that they're hearing from Fox News and Rush Limbaugh and, in some cases, inside their churches is that Democrats don't believe in Christmas, only care about minorities and black folks and trying to take your stuff and trying to take your guns away,' the former president explained.
With white male victimhood, Obama called it a 'sincere belief, that's been internalized.'

and Barrack and his ilk make black and hispanic men feel like they’re victims.
But the reality is, we are an Anglo-Saxon country, founded by the tired and poor Anglo-Saxons of Europe. We are not an international hotel that has no origins or culture.
This will be Obama’s 4th term, he’s been running the Coup for 5 years already. Interesting the way he kept pretty quiet until he thought Biden had won and he has been running his trap ever since.
Good point.
Hers is Obama harping on race again. This man cannot resist playing the race card. He is obsessed with race for some reason and thinks we all should be also. He cannot let it go.
The Great Divider, still at it.
Wish Obama would vacation in Gitmo & then have it decided for him to just stay there.
Racism, racism, racism................yawn.
Obola wants a civil war.
His loser army made up of ‘victims’ who are the real losers in this life wouldn’t know how to win anything without benevolent help. He knows it too.
“’The story that they’re hearing from Fox News and Rush Limbaugh and, in some cases, inside their churches is that Democrats don’t believe in Christmas, only care about minorities and black folks and trying to take your stuff and trying to take your guns away,’”
You don’t believe in Christmas or God or Jesus.
You do want to take our stuff and you know it.
And clearly we get that you guys only care about minorities, black folks and other tribals.
Which is why your team refuses to condemn BLM or ANTIFA who are nothing more than terrorists.
Liberals are headed straight to hell when they die. Their deeds and desires prove it.
Obama, thy name is projection.
The man is an angel of death. In his quiet, smooth way - everything he touched turned to chaos and destruction.
Libya - has killed half a million and the war still goes on
Syria - destroyed the country. Launched the greatest refugee crisis in Europe since WWII
Egypt - His Muslim Brotherhood allies nearly started a genocide against Christians
Ukraine - Color revolution and war with Russia. what more needs to be said about this?
BLM/Race Politics - making American cities unlivable
Corrupt US Intelligence Agencies -
Health care - Obamacare
IRS - used this as a political weapon.
A well-coordinated ATTACK on the citizens of The United States of America from within.
TREASON
Justice IS NOT cruel and unusual punishment. Our fellow citizens, great Americans, died on foreign battlefields for this?
Yeah, just a bunch of typical white people like your grandmother, right, Bammy?
Obama is a world class asshole. Excuse my language.
Obama just cannot hide his Islam feelings, can he???
Know who you are.....
I know who you are.....
I guess it’s hard for this Muslim to understand that Christians respect life from conception to birth and a baby is not a “burden” but a gift from God
I am so very tired of this mutt.
