Former President Barack Obama despairs at the state of political discourse in 2024, telling some 80 digital content creators we live in a “cynical time” and he finds solace in watching sports instead.
The Hill reports Obama made his revelation at a glittering Biden campaign fundraiser with the president on Saturday in Los Angeles, telling a select group of TikTok and Instagram creators he understands the challenge “influencers” face avoiding politics in their work.
“We live in a cynical time,” Obama said. “Let’s face it: I think a lot of the people who watch you, listen to you, who are fans of you — a lot of times they feel turned off by the political discourse.”

He probably doesn’t want people learning about all the damage he done to this country and crimes he’s committed. Stay stupid bro.
Political discourse that he is responsible for . . .
Valarie Jarrett and her masters were/are the people deciding foreign and domestic policy for both Obama and Biden administrations. I think Barry was more in line with their ideology so he was good with it, and Joe is so mentally gone that the rare times he’s somewhat together he just does as he’s told.
Yeah, sure Obama… the NFL, let alone the WNBA let alone Disney ESPN aren’t injecting politics into their games. You just LIKE that messaging so it’s “not political”
Yeah, especially the guys playing dress up as girls.
As to political discourse, it was OK in the US until this racist arshole was elected. Racism was pretty much gone until he revitalized it.
By “sports”, he means “gay porn.:
Bitter, clinging to their guns and Bibles.
“somehow discovered and groomed”
No miracle there—his mother was CIA.
Mostly.
Maybe that’s because it’s the only thing he understands
Obama controls nothing. He does not have the intellect. Those who control Obama control Biden.
Have you ever heard Obama speak without a teleprompter? It is because he can not!!
Exactly. He was groomed to be the Trojan Horse for The Weather Underground.
Yes, Bathhouse Barry mostly watches sports from his mansion in the Kalorama neighborhood of D.C. where various Washington movers and shakers live because he doesn’t like the politics going on now.
Obama is a charasmatic person. He is very likeable in person.
So was Clinton, Reagan, Bush and almost all really good politicians. Biden is not. He is creepy.
However, Obama was lost without his Teleprompter.
Remember when he spoke to the kindergarten class with his teleprompter?
Obama loved to watch SportsCenter on ESPN at night when he was POTUS. He likes to watch young men in their top physical shape run around.
He was always at his best when he was talking sports. Like when he threw out the first pitch at the World Series. Then visited Joe Buck and Tim McCarver in the booth between innings.
What is surprising is that he decided to keep a house in DC after his presidency. Why stay in DC unless you want to remain involved in politics.
Reminds me of Captain Over in the movie Airplane!
Over:
“Joey, have you ever seen a grown man naked?”
“Joey. do you like movies about gladiators?
Sports used to be our safe place.
Now if we want to watch a NBA game, LeBron James is going to lecture us.
Biden is probably the most impressive politican in modern American history. He did not have the skills others had. He did not really have any charisma. He was a typical politican from Delaware. One of 100 in the Senate. A nobody.
So how did he get in the White House?
Basically, he was the last man standing.
Brokeback Mountain climbing.
I created this graphic which spells this out quite explicitly:
And as for his sports acumen:
He was a front man. A lot of opportunities just fell into his lap from Harvard, UChicago, the Chicago political machine, the DNC, Reid, Pelosi, and Schumer, the intelligence services, Soros and the other oligarchs, and now the entertainment industry.
