The Condescender-in-Chief is at it again. Just weeks after Barack Obama — the descendent of Africans and white people — dared to criticize Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) — the descendent of actual slaves and a son of the state where the Civil War started — for being optimistic about the state of race in America today, the former president weighed in on what he thinks spurs on “right-wing populism.”
In an interview with Christiane Amanpour on CNN, Obama said, “It’s very hard to sustain a democracy when you have such massive concentrations of wealth.” He went on to blather about “ladders of opportunity” and a “stronger safety net” before concluding that “if we don’t take care of that, that’s also going to fuel the kind of mostly far-right populism, but it can also potentially come from the left, that is undermining democracy because it makes people angry and resentful and scared.”
First off, with all due respect to the Condescender-in-Chief — which is none as far as I’m concerned — we’re a republic, not a democracy. Second, it’s an awfully Marxist argument to pin the problem and solution solely on economics.
But what I want to focus on is Obama’s utter lack of self-awareness. After all, if anybody should know about “massive concentrations of wealth,” it’s Barry.

“It’s all smoke, mirrors and cotton candy... they are like the small children that play dress up and act like their daddy does behind his desk in the office while the adults look on and smile and the little idiots spill the ink, knock over the water and make a mess.”
Yes, that is the obvious situation to an intelligent, critically thinking adult. But the fact that so many in the nation are continuously snookered and taken in by these neer-do-wells is really shocking.
Wasn’t he the suspect who filled the government agencies with Marxists?
Second, it’s an awfully Marxist argument to pin the problem and solution solely on economics.
Indeed he used racism as his back up card for his hustling it’s still the main card the democrats pimp.
Blame and cash in is the game.
“when you have such massive concentrations of wealth.”
What’s your net worth now, Barry, you knucklehead? And where did it come from? (And I’m not talking about those ridiculous books others wrote for you.)
Obama has always had a tin ear. A huge one.
Obama said, “It’s very hard to sustain a democracy when you have such massive concentrations of wealth.”
So when is the Halfrican going to redistribute all that wealth that Netflix gave him? Or from his publishing deals?
Go back in your hole Obama.
Funny how race relations only started to go downhill after Obama took office. Even more ironic is the number of Whites who voted for him out of a misguided belief that his election would put an end to the perception of racism in the US.
They’re often the most racist, because blacks look at them with suspicion because of their mixed background, so they have to overcompensate to demonstrate which “side” they are on.
Reminds me of the picture of The One with a fly on his face and glazed over eyes.
Get thee hence Beelzebama!
Does anyone know which mansion he was at when he made his speech?
REMIND me AGAIN of the hotel bills he & Michelle ran up while dining on very expensive meals.
Don’t forget the bill for AF1 and crew to take “them” to NY for Date Nights.
The U.S. Air Force has disclosed that the average per-hour flight cost to operate its two VC-25A Air Force One aircraft was $177,843 PER HOUR!!!!!!! Okay that was in 2021, so in 08-16 say $150,000/HR. Still one hell of an expensive Joy Ride!!
