Barack Obama has lost his mojo and ruined his brand.
It used to be said that Joe Biden was serving Obama’s third term, that his former boss was controlling him from the home he had bought in DC’s ritzy Kalorama neighborhood, two miles from the White House.
The feeling was that Obama was the real leader of the Democratic Party and his wife Michelle was the secret weapon they would whip out in 2024 to replace Biden and trounce Donald Trump.
Well, none of it came to pass, and judging by his irrelevant poll numbers, Obama’s star has long faded.
In a CNN poll last month, Obama received only 4% support from Democrats who were asked which leader best represents the party, lagging behind Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Kamala Harris and Bernie Sanders. Ouch.
If Obama really was the puppeteer pulling Biden’s strings, he has a lot to answer for, judging by the parlous state of the party.
But in reality, the former prez was so aloof from politics that he didn’t even bother watching Biden’s disastrous debate performance last summer that killed his re-election bid.
Bid to ‘kneecap Harris’ According to a new book, “Fight: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House” by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes, Obama “was alerted to the catastrophe by his phone . . . Obama kept his thoughts to himself that night, but his proxies didn’t afford Biden the same courtesy.”

My thoughts exactly.
Sorry Barry, they don’t want your kind of marxists... They only want their foaming at the mouth Stalinist kind.
Big Mike, being whipped out. I'll pass on seeing that.
Barack Obama was working against Kamala Harris behind the 2024 scenes

Obama reportedly advocated against Kamala Harris in the wake of Joe Biden dropping out of 2024’s presidential election — Obama didn’t think Harris could win, according to an upcoming book. The 44th president reportedly argued for an open convention rather than anointing Harris as the nominee after Biden’s shocking drop-out, despite her having support from other Dems, according to reporter Jonathan Allen, co-author of “FIGHT: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House.”
“President Obama absolutely did not think that Joe Biden should continue, according to our sources close to President Obama and he also didn’t want Kamala Harris to be the replacement for Biden,” Allen said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” Tuesday.
“He didn’t think she was the best choice for Democrats, and worked behind the scenes for a long time to try to have a mini-primary, or an open convention, or a mini-primary leading to an open convention. [He] did not have faith in her ability to win the election,” Allen said. “He was really working against her,” he emphasized.
Allen further revealed that on a phone call with the veep on the very day Biden “passed the baton” to Harris, Obama refused to endorse her candidacy as the nominee. Obama’s reticence was apparently known among other Democratic power players.

Ouch is right. Behind Word Salad Commie? That's bad.
Sleazy party - - don't know how they'll come back.
Obama couldn’t care less. He has his tens of hundreds of millions.
obama has also aged quite a bit probably due to diseases he picked up on his dates with men along with killing his chef boyfriend maybe he is worrying himself grey....
Obama has ALWAYS been an empty suit, a smooth talking POS!! BEWARE of Gavin Newscum he is cut from the same cloth ONLY WHITE!!!
He knows how to smooth talk with a teleprompter. And he generally is clueless on most everything. For example, the “affordable” in ACA turned out to be a huge lie.
I remember that time just before the election when Hussein went into the group of black men and went all “scoldy” in a very condescending way. Instead of influencing them to vote for Kamala, he pissed them off bigly. Maybe that’s when he realized he’s an official has-been.
I never thought O’Dummy was anything special. He was always a mere pimp controlled by the real power brokers. Stupid, lazy and corrupt. We’re just now seeing this confirmed.
Never go full retard, and never whip out the first wookie.
I agree, He planned for MO to run but she wouldn’t run against DJT so the Butler plan and the Debate catastrophe were always part of the Obama plan. Barack enjoyed humiliating Joe at every turn. MO finally just said NO I’m out at some point.probably when Diddy went to jail and her mom died. She is stuck now with Barack and she can’t stand him either.They deserve each other the perfect karma.
He is a dangerous fraud till the day he dies
It was likely FJB’s own doing, as he felt betrayed. Remember: “Nobody f**** with a Biden!”
“I never thought O’Dummy was anything special. He was always a mere pimp controlled by the real power brokers. Stupid, lazy and corrupt. We’re just now seeing this confirmed.”
A nice summation.
No sh*t...just ask North Carolina and East Tennessee.
Oh, I think he did it on his own. He went full Louis XIV on them: "Après moi, le déluge!"
Young Karens and Old Hippies! That’s a perfect description of the DNC right now!
