Obama’s comments appear in a new video supporting Gavin Newsom’s Proposition 50 which would allow the California legislature to draw new congressional boundaries ahead of the midterms
Barack Obama has entered the political fray ahead of November’s special election in California, accusing Republicans of attempting to “rig the next election” in a new ad backing Governor Gavin Newsom’s Proposition 50, a ballot measure that could reshape the state’s congressional map.
“Republicans want to steal enough seats in Congress to rig the next election and wield unchecked power for two more years,” Obama says in the 30-second ad, urging voters to approve the proposal. “You can stop Republicans in their tracks.”
This is just major debunked cope. People seem to forget, but when Trump ran for the first time, the whole “establishment” hated him, both left and right. Hell, even the heritage foundation didn’t want him. Until he got too big to ignore, he won through sheer brute force popularity. Bernie just lost the primaries to Hillary…if you think America has any capability right now to see anyone to the left of Bernie in power, you’re just delusional.
Current America would rather take an old bumbling corrupt criminal rapist(pedo too?) brainlet instead of a qualified intelligent prosecutor/AG because a woman of colour is a bit too much. Don’t make the mistake of thinking your niche is anywhere near the norm.
The top brass in the DNC literally resigned due to their actions behind closed doors in 2016. Inform yourself.
And at the same time, Hillary’s campaign and the DNC created Trump and elevated him to be a leader of the pack as a pied piper candidate, as confirmed by the verified, leaked emails from her campaign. They thought it would’ve been an easy win against him and even told the media to take him seriously. Cocky.
Which is cope. She lost because she wasn’t real, among numerous other real reasons like only running on not being Trump and running on the same sweet-nothings as the prior administration + a few goodies that were lukewarm, at best.
It’s not a mistake, I’m seeing through the propaganda that you are trying to spin as the one true reality… and a growing amount of Americans are seeing through it too.
News flash, media and partisan politics aren’t reflective of the actual reality and people are tuning out of that bullshit. The bullshit doesn’t get an overwhelming majority of Americans to come to the voting booths and that’s evidence enough for me.
The 2016 Democratic primary wasn’t rigged by the DNC, and it certainly wasn’t rigged against Sanders. But Democratic elites did try to make Clinton’s nomination as inevitable, as preordained, as possible. And the party is still managing the resentment that engendered in voters. “Once somebody doesn’t trust you,” sighs Buckley, the New Hampshire Democratic chair, “it’s very hard to get that trust back.”
