The Thrill Is Gone: Only 750 Turn Out to See Former President Obama in Far-Left California

Far left George Soros related Think Progress reported over the weekend about former President Obama’s event in Anaheim, California –

ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA — Former President Obama made his first campaign stop of the midterm elections in Orange County, California Saturday to stump for seven Democratic House candidates running in districts currently held by Republicans but that Hillary Clinton won in 2016.

About 750 people attended the event at Anaheim Convention Center, where Obama delivered a short speech centered on unity and the “politics of hope.” And, after a story about getting kicked out of Disneyland when he was caught smoking in the Magic Kingdom after a concert as a teenager, Obama issued an impassioned critique of Trump and the state of American democracy and encouraged the crowd to back the candidates he came to support.

Talk about the kiss of death.

A venue at the Disneyland Convention Center.

Anyone who happens to be approached for a political survey should tell them that obama just doesn’t have the passion, that Hillary would be a far better champion of The Cause, she has the fire in the belly, the passion, the drive and the inspirational tone to lead the democrats into the future!

Obama was a fraud and media-created hologram from the beginning. The MSM and those who controlled this phony candidate us their power to convince America his speeches were eloquent, his thoughts were brilliant and his policies were sound.

After 10 years of being fed the same saccharin diet from Obama and his media promoters, even average Americans are tired of him.

From the pix the ballroom seats at least 2,800 {maybe more} and 750 wouldn’t fill the two center sections. No one gives a fat rat’s ass that the halfrican is giving a “I, ME, MY, MINE speech”.

I didn’t even know he was here. No gridlock for 5 hours during a workday so his [bleeping] motorcade can get to the mansion where he gathered adulation and cash.

I’ve been in that room. It’s one that has walls you can pull out to make it in to several smaller rooms. You could probably fit 2-3k depending on how it’s configured.
