“I’ll be honest with you, if I have a regret during my presidency, it is that people were so focused on me and the battles we were having, particularly after we lost the House, that folks stopped paying attention up and down the ballot,” he said Thursday at a Democratic National Committee fundraiser in Beverly Hills, Calif., according to Politico.

What I think he is really saying is: “If only I had been able to run for a third term.”

Apparently, gay men are very centered - on themselves.

He’s behind the myth that the Obamas are America’s “forever first family”.

“Obama said Democrats failed to maintain control of the White House and take Congress in 2016 because they were too focused on him personally”

This is rich, coming from the “I, me, my, and mine” egomaniac himself, the Kenyan Fraud. He helped no one else on any of the Dim tickets because he was only interested in himself and that everyone else treat him as a demigod.

And, yes, Dims paid the price for the cult of personality they build up around this buffoon.
