Obama talks up Warren behind closed doors to wealthy donors
The Hill ^ | 12/23/19 | AMIE PARNES

Posted on 12/23/2019 6:39:53 AM PST by Libloather

Sen. Elizabeth Warren has spent her campaign railing against the donor class, making it known she doesn't want their help.

She has publicly bashed millionaires, has sworn off high dollar fundraisers and has refused large checks from Democratic bundlers.

But behind the scenes in recent months, former President Obama has gone to bat for Warren (Mass.) when speaking to donors reluctant to support her given her knocks on Wall Street and the wealthy.

And if Warren becomes the nominee, Obama has said they must throw the entirety of their support behind her.

The former president has stopped short of an endorsement of Warren in these conversations and has emphasized that he is not endorsing in the Democratic race.

“I think he feels licensed to give an opinion on her because he’s ‘hired' her,” the longtime Obama ally said.

Sure, but after how many beers?

What kind of pitch do these Communists make to the wealthy “behind closed doors”?

If Barry the Muslim can push Fakeahontas to the front of the pack, it will leave the door wide open for Hillary to become the nominee in a Brokered Convention.

Communism and Socialism and all related ideologies should be outlawed.

And if these wealthy ‘buh-zillionaires’ are dumb enough to buy into obxxx’s prattle then they deserve to waste their ‘buh-zillions’ on princess screeching owl. Nails, meet chalkboard.

Do not worry, the corruption will continue, as is normal.

She is the biggest phony of all the Dem candidates. She has been caught in so many lies, I'm surprised she doesn't look like Pinocchio.

I suppose it’s the same kind of pitch the Nazis made to the Prussian aristocracy back in the early 1930s. And the Prussians bought it. They thought they could control Hitler like a person controls a dog on a leash.

How wrong they were.

He probably has the same goal in mind...the destruction of the US economic engine, and Warren and Sanders would both get that done.

Obama: “Here’s the deal. Don’t believe what she says, and she’s only trying to get elected. She’s a Democrat, never believe what a Democrat says. She will do what we Democrats tell her to do in the House and Senate. So give her all the money she needs. End of story.”

translation: Don’t let all of the bold socialist talk scare you away from her. She is every bit the fraud that I was.

"If you choose Warren-Care, I promise you'll get to keep your assets."

Hmmmmmm...that phraseology sounds familiar? Where have I heard that before?

Nobody with $20 in his pocket is listening to Otoken; he was simply the mouthpiece for the wealthy left, not a strategist. Like BJ Clinton, he came is with Dem control of everything and went out with Republican control of everything - their true legacies. They were both too stupid to even understand how they’d been used by the elites; they did the damage as instructed, then left office turning everything over to the opposition.

The 2000 race was as much a reflection on BJ Clinton as it was on Gore, and the 2016 election was as much a reflection on the Kenyan Pirate as it was on Hillary.

Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.

— Communist goal #12

Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.

— Communist goal #15
The swamp freely accommodated the commies on those and other goals of theirs.

Interesting if true. Obama ditches support for Biden and helps Warren.

Warren is a pathological liar, just like Obama. It would be awful to hear her whining, complaining, miserable voice for 4 years, but even worse to see that “ensemble”. Four years of black pants, a black top, and various little sweaters or jackets. Can you imagine her dancing at the Inaugural Ball in that uniform?
