I almost lost it when I saw this clip. Really? Obama wants to know how we became so divided?
The same Obama and Hillary who characterized the people as a basket of deplorables? Who described small town America as bitter, clinging to gun and religion with antipathy against immigrants and people who aren't like them? Who said: "If Latinos sit out the election instead of saying, 'We're gonna punish our enemies, and we're gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us . . .' Who said "We don't mind the Republicans joining us. They can come for the ride, but they gotta sit in back."
The same Obama who called all opponents of same-sex marriage 'bigots.' Who called the pro life movement "a war on women." Who called all who wanted a secure border 'racist'. Who called the GOP 'the enemy of Hispanics.'
By the end of 2016 and after eight years of America having its first 'black President", ". . .Race relations have deteriorated to an unenviable place. In a July 2016 poll, nearly 70 percent of Americans agreed that race relations are generally bad – a level unseen since the 1992 Rodney King riots. . ." Barack Obama: The Great Divider
How did we become so divided Obama asks? He (and a number of others) only need to look in the mirror for the answer.
He gave Black Lives Matter the Presidential endorsement and provided the fuel with The Cambridge Police incident, Trayvon, Michael Brown, The Ferguson Riots etc. His diligent work in fueling Black animus toward Police and White people culminated with the George Floyd riots. Obama created racial division we haven't seen since the 60s.
