Riding in a motorcade in Lima, Peru, shortly after the 2016 election, President Barack Obama was struggling to understand Donald J. Trump’s victory.
“What if we were wrong?” he asked aides riding with him in the armored presidential limousine.
He had read a column asserting that liberals had forgotten how important identity was to people and had promoted an empty cosmopolitan globalism that made many feel left behind. “Maybe we pushed too far,” Mr. Obama said. “Maybe people just want to fall back into their tribe.”

Mr. Rhodes describes the reaction of foreign leaders. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe of Japan apologized for breaching protocol by meeting with Mr. Trump at Trump Tower in Manhattan after the election. Mr. Obama urged Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of Canada to take on a more vocal role defending the values they shared.
Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany told Mr. Obama that she felt more obliged to run for another term because of Mr. Trump’s election to defend the liberal international order. When they parted for the final time, Ms. Merkel had a single tear in her eye. “She’s all alone,” Mr. Obama noted.

And no contrition to the American people for bad policies and a wastrel of an Administration.
LOL.
My thoughts exactly. This is part of the opium they are feeding the brain dead left. The Messiah was troubled, worried for his flock. We need to resist and bring back his vision... Barf...
Oh, BOO HOO!
Quite simply, it was not the will of Allah.
I agree. Zero has no such thoughts.

Suggest that either fits. Tool of the D’rat party must be a fool to think anyone could pull it off. Got to give them this: it’s not for lack of trying. They read us wrong only due to the fact most haven’t yet learned to comprehend what was read.
Because everybody else are primitives, unlike The Won.
The biggest bullet dodged in my lifetime. Thank you God.
Apocryphal.
““She’s all alone,” Mr. Obama noted.”
Soros will keep this munchkin company.
“To cope of course, he’s back to doing what he does best, snorting coke and smoking poles.”
lolol
Puke.
“Mr. Obama had authorized a statement to be issued by intelligence agency leaders a month before the election warning of Russian interference, but was thwarted from doing more because Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the Republican leader, refused to go along with a bipartisan statement.”
Mitch: Who would of thought it? At least you did something right!
