Obama Attacks Black Republican Tim Scott for ‘Minimizing Racial Inequality’
Political Insider ^ | Dr. Derek Ellerman

Posted on 06/19/2023 1:41:38 PM PDT by RoosterRedux

If you thought he would go away and stop whipping up racial division, you were wrong.

Former President Obama, one of the worst of the 20th Century, decided to lend his voice to the woke train, attacking black Republican Tim Scott and Indian Republican Nikki Haley.

Why, you may ask, would a black man attack fellow minorities? According to Obama, it’s because Scott and Haley are too positive about America, and not pessimistic enough about race relations.

For a quick refresher, here’s the working definition of irony: a technique of indicating, as through character or plot development, an intention or attitude opposite to that which is actually or ostensibly stated.

[...]

Obama made his comments, of course, on a CNN program – the podcast of his former campaign manager, David Axelrod.

Among other things, here is what Obama said:

“I think there’s a long history of African American or other minority candidates within the Republican Party who will validate Americans saying, ‘Everything’s great, and we can make it.”

Just sit with this for a second. Scott and Haley are guilty of… saying that people can make it in America. Say, for example, that a black man can be elected President. Easily. And twice.

The implication is obvious; minorities can’t make it, according to the black former President, talking about a black United States Senator and an Indian former Governor and United Nations Ambassador.

Does anyone know which one of his mansions he was in when he made this statement?

Obama, the former President, whose lineage comes from Kenya, chides Sen. Scott, who dares to exalt this country.

FU, Obama.

Tim needs to understand just how oppressed poor Obama was. He had a hard life down South, working his fingers to the bone out on the farm from sun up to sun down. Slopping the pigs and milking the cows...all for slave wages.

Obama continues to stir the racial pot.
Race relations were improving until he came along.

Shut up Obozo. You were NOT the first black President. African on your father's side, and White on your mother's. Tim, while not American First enough for me, would be the 1st truly black President.

Obama thinks anyone who doesn’t like him, it must be a race thing.

It isn’t. It’s because he’s an overt america hating socialist who lives to pit groups of people against each other, because thats what socialists do. Thats their hegelian dialectic demanding it.

If you are black in America, you need to understand that you are doomed to failure.

At least in Obama's Marxist utopia, everyone else will be as miserable as you are.

Obama’s not really attacking Tim Scott, but Trump here. Obama knows that anyone he attacks gains credibility in the eyes of conservatives, so he’s trying to elevate Scott to the detriment of Trump.

Well , the popular perception is that Obama is the first black president.

Tracing ancestry of all of us would reveal that very few of us are pure of whatever ethnicity we claim to be.

Tim Scott probably does not have pure African ancestry.

“DISPARITIES IN THE JUSTICE SYSTEM.”


Does he really want to say that after what they’ve done to Trump, while partnering with Biden Cash and Hillary Obstruction?

I would love to see Dr. Thomas Sowell put Obama in his place.

Obama repeats the main lie of CRT. All economic and social discrepancies between the life outcomes of blacks and whites is due to white supremacy. Obama resolves blacks of any responsibility for their own plight. Of course Asians completely undermine the tenets of CRT.
