If you're gonna be a master of sneaky pete, a master meddler, you'd better be sure your sneaky schemes work.
Obama's didn't.
Which is how he's found himself in this predicament, according to New York Post columnist, Miranda Devine, who cited findings from a new book by a couple of reporters:
It used to be said that President Joe Biden was serving former President 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.
There's plenty of other evidence of Democrats wanting nothing to do with the man they once viewed as the Lightbringer.
Democrats continue to fall in the polls: Recent surveys from CNN and The Economist/YouGov, hardly right-leaning pollsters, found Democrats in general experiencing record low public approvals.
A few days ago, Congressional Democrats saw their support fall to 21%.

Obama’s core beliefs are probably not any less radical. The current crop of Leftists reject Obama’s tactics, and pace.
Knowing the public did not want communism, Obama had the sense to pretend to be moderate while pushing the US to the left at a slow enough pace to avoid triggering a major reaction.
Cortez, Sanders, etc., believe most people DO want socialism NOW, whether they know it or not. Violence, election cheating, etc, is just a means to a glorious end. If they had power, they couldn’t care if the herd became spooked — they would use force. They see Obama as a sellout fatcat who blew the chance to impose communism by being was cautious. This is why the Dems are headed to the dustbin.
Very well put and right on.
Obama is more old school communist with the patience that was/is part of their methodology.
AOC and her crowd will be rejected by the vast majority of Americans, imo.
Thanks for the great post.
You’re welcome. Yes, very obvious.
Ouch is right. I can’t say I am disappointed. 😜😄
><
Same here. I hope he is totally humiliated.
Obama was/is lazy. He got into the White house promising fundamental change. He got it but at too slow of a pace for the likes of Bernie and Cortez. He did run Biden, but it was like trying to herd cats. Biden’s brain was shot and he couldn’t follow directions.
The dim party has morphed into the CPUSA and they thought that the kenyan would deliver them a historic transformation.
Then came along Donald Trump.
Well said and right on.
“Then came along Donald Trump.”
Thank God!!
👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks, brother. I see DJT as Divine Intervention.
