Former President Barack Obama sought to distance himself from the Democratic Party after leaving it in shambles following his departure from the White House, according to a new book.
The book, “Fight: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House,” published by William Morrow and Company, claims that Obama was never a Democratic Party loyalist. Instead, the authors allege, Obama curried favor from a group of “black professionals” for his campaigns, unlike former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State and presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, and former President Joe Biden.
Additionally, Obama’s creation of Organizing for Action — a nonprofit that launched in 2012 following Obama’s re-election to advance his legislative priorities — fractured the Democratic Party, according to the book, authored by political journalists Jonathan Allen of NBC News and Amie Parnes of The Hill.
“Though Organizing for Action never realized his vision, it competed with the party for power and money,” the book said. “He left the Democratic Party far weaker than he found it. Or, as one party operative put it, ‘Obama destroyed that s—.’”
The book also detailed how the Clintons, along with Biden and former Democratic National Committee Chair Donna Brazile and a few other party operatives, sought to “rebuild the party infrastructure” following Obama’s 2016 departure from the White House. This meant preventing far-left Democrats from seizing control of the party and ensuring party loyalists ran the show, according to the book.
“By helping install party loyalists at the national and state committees over the course of years, these establishment Democrats kept progressive outsiders at bay. ‘You know who did that?’ said one Biden ally familiar with the maneuvering. ‘Bill and Hillary motherf—ing Clinton,’” the book related.

El Rush-Bo often pointed out how Hussein destroyed the democRATS. Between 2010 and 2016, the democRATS lost 1,500 State and Federal elections. By 2016, only 5 States had both a democRAT Legislature and a democRAT governor. That is why they have to cheat so much.
Safe to state that FDR & LBJ destroyed the rat party, the likes of Hussein, Clinton, Xiden etc. just piled on.
And not only was the rat party destroyed, they took much of America with it going back generations.
Interesting as gossip but not especially illuminating. The fundamental problem for the Democrats is not organizational and that their political leaders are self-centered. Instead, the Democratic Party’s activist base is full of kooks and that the party’s policy ideas are contrary to the needs of ordinary voters and the well-being of the country.
Fabian vs. overt Maoists.
The CCP prefers takeover by quiet infiltration.
They thought Obama was tame when they adopted him.
Different definitions of destruction.
FDR turned the government into a candy shop. The foundation of destroying the government but increased D voter base.
LBJ expanded the coffee shop, made the D party the safe space for anti-American interests and tried to lock down the black and female voters, but increased the D voter base.
Clinton recognized the perverts as card carrying members of the Dem party, but was extremely popular and changed the national dialog.
Obama tried to restart the Civil War, not between states but between races and used Healthcare as his lever to grow the Dem party. Obama started the fire of the destruction of America by building on the foundations that FDR, LBJ and Clinton created.
Biden installed teams to sell out America to the highest bidder and slept thru his presidency while America burned. It was this burning of America that finally started to wake people up and caused the real destruction of the Democrats.
To me, the interesting pivot point here is that the one character that was not President who did the most to destroy the democrats was Hillary. Her quest for power brought a level of dirty tricks that made Obama and Biden’s efforts more acceptable (because it made them look more moderate) and ultimatly is what led to their collapse. In short, Hillary burned the bridges of compromise. Her reward was to watch others ascend to the throne that she so desperately craved, but they were not bridge builders. Instead of keeping America together, they released the demons that now dont want to go back into their box.
I see a lot of irony in all this, and proof that God has a sense of humor.
Not sure what the text is, but the Washington ComPost review is up.

Yesterday I read in some thread that Zero actively worked against her in 2024. Dunno which thread, if you happen to know, please send or post a link, thanks. Meanwhile, same book:
Ah, here we go:
“black professionals”
In other words, corrupt poverty pimps like Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson operated the rat machine. Now the party is filled with ghetto cannibal chieftains, each fighting over table scraps from USAID while they get pushed under the bus by millions of illegal aliens. More pain is coming, much more.
Democratic party has been in shambles for years it’s why they did so many money scams they got sloppy with bringing Obama and Biden into the arena a finger if you will.
It’s only getting worse and more dangerous we’re not that far from full on communism at the rate they are going.
Butcher kids freak people ever where half ass news media.......
Zero oversaw the utter destruction of the DemoKKKrats. They lost seats every year he was in office-—thousands of them nationally. He ensured Cankles would be the nominee by stealing it from her in 2008. He basically ensured Rutabagta would be the nominee in 2020.
Instead of transforming America, this scrotumsnatcher only transformed a small Chicago neighborhood with his grotesque and hideous library.
I wish I believed that the shambles the Democrat party is in currently would last, but I know that socialism, communism, and totalitarianism will always be popular as long people think they can get something for nothing.
And how was Obama allowed to do that? What were the trade offs?

But in order to compete nationally, they need the support from Blue Dog Democrats.
