The end of the ‘Obama era’ has officially arrived — with a deep sense of betrayal among Dem voters
NY Post ^ | 1/04/25 | Julian Epstein

You can smell it in the air. A deep sense of betrayal among Democratic voters.

An underlying realization that the Democratic party’s politburo — Obama, Pelosi, Schumer, Jeffries, and their courtiers of elected official and consultant sycophants — sold voters a bill of goods: the gaslighting of the public on President Biden’s decrepitude; the false idol of the Kamala Harris “campaign of joy” as a smart last-minute stand-in; and the repeated cowering to the far left whose wokeness and moral condescension turns off most voters.

In a just world, one might expect a formal no-confidence vote on this leadership failure.

After all, this is the kind of recall we see with Western European heads of state, in House speakership races, and soon, in Canada. That recall may not happen, but the undeniable trouncing may signal the end of what we can call the Obama Era.

Simply put, the Obama Era is characterized by a set of ideas and tactics directly linked to the Democrats’ loss. The first is the “Demography is Destiny” delusion — a kind of manifest destiny of the left, adopted in the second Obama term, that promises an ever-diversifying electorate would inexorably vote Democratic and must therefore be patronized with cartoonish appeals to identity and big government wardship.

This proved to be not only deeply un-American but politically foolish.

Upon taking office, Biden mandated race preferences and DEI rules across 90 different federal agencies — what leading race theorist Coleman Hughes refers to as the neo-racism of the left.

Open borders were supposed to buy Hispanic votes. Green New Deal wars on oil and gas industries that most of the big players on the global stage would reject were supposed to buy young voters.

Validating the rhetoric of pro-Hamas activists was supposed to buy votes in Dearborn...

[Obama Era ... sold voters a bill of goods]

Barack Obama is all about LGBTQ+ - There's your "transgender" salesman, America

The Democratic Party has become
the Party of Godless Reprobate Agendas

(pro-LGBTQ+)

All according to plan.

All according to Satan's plan.

The abomination of America's White House under the rule of Godless Reprobate Barack Hussein Obama must never be forgotten - this man is a tool of Satan

Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama is a Godless Reprobate
false prophet doing (his true father's) Satan's work for a long time now


June 26, 2015 was the Rainbow White House

Neo-racism? The Democrats have been perfecting racism for centuries. Nothing new about it. Ask the BFF of grand exalted Klan leader Byrd.

The abysmal Biden debate triggered a panic attack
among power-crazed Democrats and obeisant journalists.
<><>A New York Times editorial begged Biden to withdraw from the race,
<><>The New Yorker published a similar plea the following day.
<><>Obama called George Clooney,
<><>voters were to be told Harris had “what it takes” to return Democrats to power.


The complete and utter contempt in which Biden, drjill and his henchmen
hold Americans, thinking we’d be too stupid to notice what they knew full well:
<><>Biden going to pieces before tens of millions of voters at the debate,
<><>voters witnessing the spectacle of a demented old man unfit to be president,
<><>Biden struggling to answer, his debate responses a jumble of nonsense,
<><>broadcasting the truth, that Biden’s mind was AWOL.

Maybe we’ll get lucky and Obama finally chokes to death on Big Mike.

Julian Epstein recently has been intellectually honest. I remember him from the Bill Clinton days of yore. It is refreshing.

Former New York Times reporter David Samuels chronicles how the Obama White House conceived and perfected the strategy of using affiliate left-wing public intellectuals to sell often false or misleading narratives to mainstream news and political elites on, say, the deeply defective Iranian nuclear deal, and then to quell dissent with cancel tactics.

MIT health economist Jonathan Gruber on the passing of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act:

You can’t do it, politically. You just literally cannot do it...

This bill was written in a tortured way to make sure CBO did not score the mandate as taxes. If CBO scored the mandate as taxes, the bill dies. Okay? So it’s written to do that. In terms of risk-rated subsidies, if... you made explicit that healthy people pay in and sick people get money, it would not have passed...

Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage, and basically, you know, call it the stupidity of the American voter or whatever, but basically that was really, really critical to getting the thing to pass.

Look, I wish... that we could make it all transparent, but I’d rather have this law than not... Yeah, there’s things I wish I could change, but I’d rather have this law than not. And I think that involves some tradeoffs that, you know, we don’t prefer as academic economists, but which are realistic.

No wonder they’re slightly less than happy and fulfilled:

* Disenfranchisement of American citizens

* Wealth transfer plunder of working class and heirs and businesses

* Inversion of morality and moral outrage

* Glorification of the mundane; trivialization of the virtuous and heroic

* Cheapening of solemn national awards and symbols

* Destruction of national monuments and memorials

* Falsification of testimony against myriad patriots

* Destruction of exculpatory evidence in Congress and Courts

* Abdication and violation of oaths of office

* Abandonment of responsibility to apply due process to outlaws, petty and monstrous

* Heinous macabre for-profit surgeries on gullible children and troubled adults

* Deception of millions of women about the humanity in their wombs

* Failure to uphold societal mores that require fathers to support their offspring

* Theft from those with a work ethic, to subsidize those who vote a certain way but don’t work

* _____________________________________

Never mind patriotism, enlightened self-interest alone would prevent Marxists from ever gaining another office, if actual citizen voters were better informed.

Congress should enact another official Thanksgiving Day for the country. The long nightmare of Obama is dead. The Wicked Kenyan of the East is dead. Long live the King of the West. The Kenyan’s winged monkeys were in every office of the land. Hopefully, they have been burned out.

Is Julian saying that Obamas work is done, or that Obama is done or both? I don’t see Democrats dumping him anytime soon. In order to move on from him, his machinery needs to be dismantled.

There is a reason that homosexuality and other sexual deviancies have been repressed in the West since the dawn of civilization. When perverts rule horror follow.

“That, together with Obama’s red-line bluff on Syria’s chemical gas use, his backing down to Putin on the annexation of Crimea”

Another loser who was salivating for World War 3. Glad they’ll be out of power in 2 weeks. I spent year listening to these Leftists call my side, especially Reagan, WARMONGERS, yet this bunch just cannot get enough of it.
