Former President Barack Obama implied Tuesday that President Donald Trump was to blame for Charlie Kirk’s assassination, because of “extreme” personnel and policies that aroused violent opposition.
Obama was interviewed onstage by Steve Scully at the Jefferson Educational Society in Erie, Pennsylvania.
He mourned Kirk’s death, saying it was “horrific,” but made sure to recite an (inaccurate) laundry list of Kirk’s more controversial statements, including a false claim that Kirk claimed black women were stupid.
Obama then said that Trump wanted to use Kirk’s assassination as “a rationale for trying to silence discussion around who we are as a country and what direction we should go.” He then claimed that when he had been in the White House, “those extreme views were not in my White House. I wasn’t embracing them. I wasn’t empowering them. I wasn’t putting the weight of the United States government behind extremist views.”
In fact, it was Obama who inaugurated an era of division and extremism. On the campaign trail in 2008, he encouraged his supporters to confront friends and neighbors, and “argue with them, get in their face.” …

He’s a liar serving his father, the father of lies. He will not escape the responsibility of his actions.
He cracks me up
Bald faced liar. What a pig to insert himself in this, a man’s death, to promote even further decades of his hate-filled world view.
The level of disdain I have for this vile, lying jug-eared POS is immeasurable...
No, narcissists generally lack self-awareness, especially regarding their negative behaviors and the damage they cause, because they rely on a grandiose false self and defensive mechanisms like denial and projection to avoid challenging introspection. However, some narcissists may experience moments of cognitive awareness during a personal crisis, though this is often intellectual rather than emotional and does not lead to a desire for change or genuine self-transformation. Why narcissists lack self-awarenessFalse Self:
They develop a carefully constructed, grandiose "false self" to protect a fragile ego, which becomes a barrier to authentic self-knowledge.
Cognitive Distortions:
They use exaggerated thought patterns, such as believing they are always right or deserving of special treatment, to maintain their inflated self-image and avoid seeing reality clearly.
Defensive Mechanisms:
Narcissists employ strategies like denial, where they reject any feedback that contradicts their self-perception, and projection, where they attribute their own flaws to others.
Avoidance of Introspection:
They actively avoid self-reflection, as it is seen as a threat to their carefully maintained image and can expose their underlying vulnerabilities.
When awareness occurs
Crisis Events:
A narcissist may become cognitively aware of their own difficulties or the impact of their actions after a significant life crisis, such as a divorce, bankruptcy, or illness.
Limited Impact:
This awareness is often superficial, a "dry fact" without the accompanying emotional maturity or insight needed for transformation or healing.
Motivation for Optimization:
If they engage in introspection, it's often to better manipulate their environment or to maximize their sources of "narcissistic supply" rather than for genuine change.
The self-aware narcissist
Still a Narcissist:
Even a narcissist who acknowledges their personality traits is still a narcissist and doesn't necessarily change their core behavior.
Lack of Internalization:
They may understand their public image as narcissistic but lack the capacity for true introspection and empathy towards themselves.
Potential for Therapy:
Self-aware narcissists might seek therapy, but this does not guarantee behavioral change, as they may still lack the emotional motivation to work through their issues.
No matter how much I despise Obama, it never can be enough.
LIAR!
To criticize those "clinging to their guns and their religion" IS extreme!
This is what he is REALLY saying “If Trump had just lost the White House and ended up in prison like it was our plan, we wouldnt have to kill Conservatives”
So says the illegal from Kenya with a fake birth certificate with a CT number. Hawaii my ass...
That’s right!
I know how you feel.
Obama is the reason why this country went to hell in a handbasket, the second that Kenyan born bisexual sack of crap entered the White House that was the beginning of the end
"Fundamentally transforming" the country isn't extreme at all.
All the woke, DEI, gay trans, radical issues are on his sorry ass.
Gun to knife fight
Police acted stupidly
