Obama cheers Minnesota reforms: ‘A giant leap forward’
The Hill ^ | 05/26/2023 | JULIA SHAPERO

Posted on 05/26/2023 1:10:39 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Former President Obama touted several new Minnesota laws as a “giant leap forward” and a “reminder that elections have consequences” on Friday after the Democrat-controlled Legislature concluded a jam-packed session earlier this week.

“Earlier this year, Democrats took control of the State Senate by one seat after winning a race by just 321 votes,” Obama tweeted. “It gave Democrats control of both chambers of the state legislature and the governor’s mansion.”

“Since then, Minnesota has made progress on a whole host of issues — from protecting abortion rights and new gun safety measures to expanding access to the ballot and reducing child poverty,” he continued. “These laws will make a real difference in the lives of Minnesotans.”

“It’s a reminder that, while the pace of change can often be slow, a small group of people can still help us take a giant leap forward — but only if we vote,” Obama added.

Is that like the Great Leap Forward? It sure seems like it.

Yep, I noticed that too. Does Obama fondly reminisce about Mao’s Great Leap Forward in China????

Interesting choice of words by Obama.

Odumbo sells out black people again. He is happy that more illegals will vote in elections and water down the black vote. He doesn't like seeing more black people supporting Donald Trump. Odumbo has been a sellout his entire life. It's a shame more black people don't know the truth.

They will also go after the “My Pillow” guy.

He will be easy pickings because he lives and operates in Minnesota. They will find a way to shut him down.

Millions of people died in China during the Great Leap, with estimates ranging from 15 to 55 million, making the Great Chinese Famine the largest or second-largest famine in human history.

Oddly enough:

“Osama Obama preise the election that allowed Democratic priorities this session, including legalizing recreational marijuana, codifying reproductive freedom as a fundamental right, and implementing universal background checks on
firearm purchases and other gun safety measures.”

And Satan was so proud of his people he almost cried.
