Former President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama paid tribute to George Floyd on the one-year anniversary of his death, urging Americans to turn action into “meaningful reform” and concluding that the last year — which saw a wave of violent protests and riots resulting in injured police officers and damaged businesses — has “given us reasons to hope.”

“George Floyd was murdered one year ago today. Since then, hundreds more Americans have died in encounters with police—parents, sons, daughters, friends taken from us far too soon,” the former president said Tuesday. “But the last year has also given us reasons to hope.”

Imagine if this jug-eared jackass had had a real opponent in 2008 and 2012.

How can a drug-using thug be the poster child for the Left? There was a photo some time ago of Floyd holding a pregnant woman hostage and pointing a gun at her belly, but this is the addict they want to honor. Good Lord, how lost are we?

So Barack and Big Mike Obama are urging Americans to turn action into “meaningful reform” to stop the use of illicit drugs such as Fentanyl?

Oh no, that's right, grifters gotta grift.

Elected him twice and he did squat to help the George Floyds of this country when he had all the power to do so or at least drive the conversation.

Instead he used their deaths to condemn our “racist history” because real change (not money for feel good legislation) would have required effort from the laziest person to ever occupy the White House.

The GOP put up willing Designated Losers, he had to win, they were not going to take any chances on a fair election.
