Former US president Barack Obama on Friday warned against rising nationalism as he painted a grim picture of American and global politics on a visit to Denmark.
“I’m concerned enough about the international and American trends that I thought it was important to offer my views,” he told entrepreneurs and students in the Danish central city of Kolding.
“When you start seeing our politics driven completely free of facts, when you start seeing a debate that is driven solely on racial or nationalistic impulses, when you start seeing a rejection of science and expertise and logic in politics... we are beyond the sort of politics that will continue our best traditions,” he added.
Relatively discreet since leaving the White House on January 20, 2017, the 44th President of the United States carefully avoided any direct reference to his successor Donald Trump. […]
Referring to the right-wing populist Law and Justice Party (PiS)’s arrival in power in Poland and the fiercely anti-immigration government in Hungary, Obama said: “there is a shift that has implications for all of Europe.

Will that amazing speech end up in the liebarry?
So the racist Black Nationalist is worried that the beaming simpleton palefaces are showing resistance?
Was Obama saying this in South Africa?
Like South Africa?
someone got ripped off
I wish some based Dane would punch him in the face.
When brocko says “racial” in this context, it is a dog-whistle for “white”. It’s all good when racial thought and policy is black, totally acceptable and to be expected, and “it’s about time!”
But just let people who’ve been accused of white privilege, toxic masculinity, blah-blah-phobia and systematic oppression, rise up and push back, then it’s “dangerous racial nationalism”.
These people are rejects from another planet.
He is just a despicable crazy leftist.
I have more respect for pond slime than I do for this freak.
I am so sick of this crap.
Right I am an immigrant who stood in line, paid my fees , waited years etc and I am proud to be an American.
If that makes me what he states then so be it I couldn’t careless.
There is nothing wrong with being proud of being an American. Why is it to the left that they can be proud to be black, muslim, homosexual have their parades too and say they are proud, but if one states they are proud to be American then it is a bad thing.
how about this.
STFU Obama
Yep. From him and his ilks, his fellow fascist.
From PIAPS... "The Democratic voters are stupid. They are easy to manipulate."
Per the toe sucker but I sorta believe him at this point.
Obozo.... blah, blah, blah. Soon he will realize that no one cares about him or what he has to say any more. His time - thankfully! - has passed. Of course he’ll keep talking even if he has an audience of only one.
Isn’t that what he used?
Says the gay muslim socialist globalist.
Obama stands with his muslim brotherhood. always
Note he chose not to give this speech here prior to an election.
Oh, he is such a statesman! /s
