Barack Obama was onstage at the University of Nevada doing a familiar, uncomfortable job. He was here to rally Democrats and to fight cultural tides the party didn’t quite anticipate.Obama spent much of his speech on a long defense of his own presidency, and condemnation of Republican governance. “When you hear all this talk about ‘economic miracles’ right now, remember who started it,” Obama said. He denounced Trump’s attempts to pressure the FBI and Department of Justice to target political foes. “That is not how America works. That is how some tin-pot dictatorship works,” he said.

The voters here were happy to see him. The vintage hip-hop act Salt-N-Pepa opened up by dedicating the song “Whatta Man” to Obama. The young Nevada Democratic Party chair, William McCurdy, couldn’t contain his excitement: He’d never met Obama before, he said, and stressed that the former president’s role was to “rally [the] voters.”
That rallying is, in Nevada, very focused on young Latinos, who make up the Democrats’ edge here — if they vote. The headliner to that effect was the reggaeton star J Balvin.
“If we can’t find a way to activate the largest and fastest-growing demographic in this country, there’s no way we can take our country back,” actor America Ferrera told the crowd.
Obama and Democrats here are up against a Republican campaign in Nevada that embodies the surprisingly durable politics of Trump’s party.
Well, I guess we will have to wait and see how Nevada votes and see if the visit of Obama had a positive effect.
Release the FISA and nail this clown to the wall.
“He denounced Trump’s attempts to pressure the FBI and Department of Justice to target political foes.”
Classic projection right there.
Marxist Obama says “Who you gonna believe, me or your lyin eyes?”
Talk about projection.
Obama was the tin pot dictator. He often demanded things the courts struck down as unconstitutional.
Where’s the Big Push that Obama was going to make before election day? I thought he was going to Lead The Resistance Movement.
Obama, you’re an asterisk.
Ah, Dorbama the Muslim eunuch quota boy.
A wonderful demonstration of what no intelligence, no standards, and no real father will do.
That’s a classic case of projection, now, right there!! LOL!
Look st the small pathetic group watching zero.

“Obama was the tin pot dictator. He often demanded things the courts struck down as unconstitutional.”
Yes, but don’t forget all his executive orders. I’m rather thankful because had he made that stuff law would have been harder for Trump to reverse/overturn what he has!
From a guy who desperately wanted t be a tin pot dictator.
Well, the “tin pot dictator” wiped out 8 years of your Presidency in under 2 years of his.
Not too shabby.
Projection from the Narcissist in Chief.
America Ferrara - the Bob Denver of her era.
So many parallels with the Carter/Reagan changeover - except in 1980 even the Democrats had the good sense not to clamor for a return to the bad old days of Carter.
If you’ve seen the photos then you know that Obama was playing to a nearly-empty house. The fold-in bleachers remained folded in.
This is a former star without the star trappings except for his trusty teleprompter. And why the shirtsleeves? It’s October, even in Vegas. He isn’t hopping frantically from one campaign stop to another - it’s a one-off event. This is like watching someone ‘perform’ in front of his bedroom mirror. Embarrassing all round.
Psychotic.
“A wonderful demonstration of what no intelligence, no standards, and no real father will do.”
What it will do is draw the liberal left to make them their new god, their knight in shining armour! The example of all they want to see American men become since the liberal left is a bunch of feminists regardless of their gender of birth.
