Obama Warns Dems Not to Do What ‘Mitch McConnell Did When I Was Elected’
Mediaite ^ | November 20, 2016 | Justin Baragona

During a news conference in Peru this evening, President Barack Obama responded to a question regarding his advice to Democrats now that they’ve lost the White House and whether or not they should re-elect Nancy Pelosi as their House leader.

After complimenting Pelosi calling her a “remarkable leader,” Obama moved on to telling Democrats that they should give the new administration a “hearing.” He also commented on how he was treated by Republicans when he took office.

Not exactly the truth.....doesn't surprise me in the least. Mr. Obama is not going to face the fact that he and his administration so disgusted the the American electorate with Obama's abuse of the Constitution; his lies about Obamacare, his American 'values' charade.....the list is long.

It is utterly unthinkable and ungentlemanly for a Lame Duck President to go around the world commenting on the just passed election in such sour terms.

Like Hillary, Obama blames everyone else for his failures ad nauseum!

Mitch McConnell’s response to this will be one of his silent, deer-in-the-headlights stares, followed by a slow withdrawal of his head and neck back into his shell.

Funny, that’s how I remember it, too. Seems to me I remember the day after the election in 2008, this latter day Nostradamus was bewailing his fear that the GOP looked like it was becoming just a regional party. His considered views were informed, of course, by the fact that he’s a stupid, cowardly, defeatist weasel. Anyway, that’s how I remember it.

What Mitch McConnell did??

You mean cave in on everything except the Garland Supreme Court nomination and give Barky everything he wanted including even more in spending than was requested in the last budget???

Maybe Barky can write some science fiction in another 60 days!

Obama and Hillary remind me of Hitler in the bunker. He blamed the German people for Germany’s defeat. Idiots on all counts.

If the Democrats obstruct, the Justice Department can arrest.

President Ford gave some advice once. The initial reports are always wrong. An ex-President does not stay around Washington D.C. after his term has expired.

“I certainly don’t want them to do what Mitch McConnell did when I was elected,” POTUS said. “Meet the day of and say our sole objective is to not cooperate with him on anything even if the country is about to go into a depression so that we can gain seats in the mid-terms and defeat him.”

I don't think it was Mitch McConnell. I believe it was the GOP House leadership who had that meeting. Regardless, it's too late. The Democrats have already decided on that course of action.

Can't say as I blame him. If I were Obama I would not want the dems to fold like a house of wet cards and do whatever Trump demands of them.
