Obama says Fox news has destroyed American politics.



Barack Obama reflected Thursday on what he could do when running for the U.S. Senate in Illinois in the early 2000s that he most likely couldn’t do now — because of Fox News and social media.
In an interview with “The Daily Show,” the former president recalled campaigning in rural, mainly conservative areas and still connecting with voters on a personal level, even though they were skeptical of his progressive ideas.
“There wasn’t the filter that has been created by Fox News or the media infrastructure, the right-wing conspiracy theory folks, and so they came at me with an open mind,” he told host Trevor Noah.

“I could listen to them and they could listen to me and at the end of the day, they might say, ‘Well he’s a little liberal for our taste, but we have something in common,’ ― like the love they have for their children,” Obama continued. “There was some sense of connection.”

:itsok:

Just think, at one time the black Obama was able to connect well enough with the systemically racist country, the US of A, to get elected..........twice

But alas, Fox news destroyed it all

Who knew?

I think Orange man should at least been blamed instead.

Besides, January 6th.
It was the beginnings of Fox News which exposed the lefty media for who they were, daring to give other sides to the propaganda spewed by the left. That's got to ruffle feathers from the swamp. It's harder for them to pass off the status quo with no questions asked.

What a dickhead. Like anyone cares what this Muslim Brotherhood loving American hating piece of shit has to say . Only democrats listen to racists like obama.
 
The Worthless Negro has always hated Fox. He is obsessed with hating Fox.

However, he forgot that the idiots on Fox tried to screw Trump during the 2016 and 2020 campaign debates. He forgot all the shitheads on Fox being giddy with joy when the Democrats stole the 2020 election. He forgets that Fox fired people that wanted to talk about the oppression to the protesters on 1/6.
 
And I bet that list you mentioned placed Presidents like FDR who locked up innocent Japanese Americans while leaving alone German Americans, all because they had squinty eyes. No other President in history has implemented such an unconstitutionally racist act that went unchallenged. And I bet LBJ is at the top of that list as well, even though he made up a fictitious attack on the US by the Vietcong to justify going to war, just like Hitler did with Poland as he sent hundreds of thousands to their death.

Do you have any idea what you can do with that list?
LOL what a lie german and italian americans on the east coast were arrested and locked up and in fact some Germans were held until 1947
 
No "tantrum", just stating the facts. Historians must live in some kind of bubble or something. Evidently they're not susceptible to the same things everyone else is. For example...

• Gasoline that rose 3 times the price it was in 2018, depending on location

• Ending US Keystone XL pipeline while waiving sanctions on Russia's Nord Stream 2 pipeline

• The price of oil jumping up to $130 per barrel

• Draining our own Strategic Oil Reserve to the lowest level since 1984

• Having to beg Saudi Arabia and Venezuela for oil

• Inflation rate that rose as high as 9.1%, which was almost 5 times higher than it was in 2019

• A recession

• The average middle-class family coming up about $6,000 short of purchasing power

• The DOW dropping 6,700 points in only a year

• The stock market losing $9 trillion dollars worth of value in only two years

• Retirement accounts losing $3 trillion dollars

• 30 year fixed mortgages rising by 4.43% in only two years, to 7.75%

• Home prices soaring 43% in only two years and housing sales slumping

• Median asking rent prices rising 79.7% in only two years

• Grocery prices increasing by 13.5% in only two years

• The price of electricity rising by 15.8% in only two years

• Hefty tax increases on the lower and middle class

• 84,000 new IRS agents arming and training to be home invaders

• Use of DOJ and FBI to harass political opponents

• A broken election system corrupt with fraud, sometimes taking months to count

• Conducting covert raids on American citizens and confiscating personal property

• Supply line disruptions, backorders, items out of stock or unavailable

• Sporadic shortages on grocery store shelves

• Food-processing plants mysteriously burning down

• Continuing monumental trade deficit with China

• More COVID deaths than in 2020

• Massive job losses from vaccine mandates

• An exponentially-spiraling epidemic of violent crime and drugs

• Fentanyl seizures up 745 percent

• 120% increase in opioid deaths in just two years

• 4.9 million illegals crossing US border within only two years

• 900,000 "gotaways" who eluded apprehension and disappeared into American communities

• Record numbers of illegals dying while crossing the border

• Border Patrol arrests 98 who were on the terror watch list in 2022, 3X the last 5 years combined

• A dishonorable withdrawal from Afghanistan that cost 13 American soldiers their lives

• $7.12 billion worth of US military equipment and weaponry left to the Taliban

• Hundreds of US citizens and Afghans left behind in Afghanistan after the withdrawal

• People falling out of the wheel wells of aircraft leaving Afghanistan

• A weakened US military that's more concerned with "political correctness" than creating soldiers

• Record low enlistment numbers

• A revitalized Russian oil industry, despite US sanctions

• A war in Ukraine that has cost the US billions of dollars and killed thousands

• Increased possibility of nuclear war with Russia

• Iran expanding their nuclear enrichment program

• China becoming energy and militarily dominant

• A senile, angry, and incompetent president who falls off of a bicycle, falls up stairs, insults
half the people in America, labels people as "terrorists", divides the country, and tries to incite
a civil war.
thank you for this. I was looking for Trump's Accomplishments (litany of) but this will work for me, maybe even better

I'm educating people on the good things Trump did

:)
 
Imagine what things would be like if Rush dared not dissent - right?
we don't have to imagine

Even with Rush around, things are far too leftist

I think of those weird interviews you see on Fox every now and then.. Young people being asked such questions as: What was the Revolutionary war in the US about?

and they just stand there looking DUH- like.. hemming and hawing.. Some couldn't even name the first president.. When shown a picture of Lincoln.. same Duh response

This is obviously an incredibly serious problem! I have sometimes thought that I should open a school for young (but not too young) children. If I could get funding, I would..
I don't like GoFundMe but there's another org like that.. can't recall the name.. Maybe I should pursue this goal.. would need help from others, to be sure

sorry but this doesn't make sense.. you first criticize someone for disliking Fox.. then criticize Fox yourself.

But anyhow.. aside from that (and please do put it aside for now)

WHO, pray tell, are the "sh----heads" who were giddy when the 2020 election was stolen?

I need to know so I never watch them again. But I am not giving up Fox

one word: Ingraham

Hannity is another.. can't see either one being giddy over the Steal..

You don't need to look very far to appreciate Trump's legacy. Every one of Biden's failures is an antithesis to a success by President Trump.
 
Obama is a dick. He's a liar too of course, the left project EVERYTHING they're responsible for.

Unless you're an idiot you recognize the left controls 98% of our information sources and nearly all of it is propaganda aimed at the right to favor the left. That's exactly why the left exist at all, because they depend on lazy and stupid people to buy what they're selling, and that's what they do. Thus TDS and victimization.

Do you have any idea what you can do with that list?
I have not heard of an attack by the Viet Cong.. fake one, you say.. and that being LBJs excuse for war..

Please inform

Gulf of Tonkin? Some of us know little about the V war
 
Yeah, the lessers in society (like yourself) did not react favorably to Obama....they (i.e. you) will never get over having a black man as president. In fact, you voted for John McCain.

Then later you stated this:


Here is the part where you swear you never voted for McCain.
Obama was attacking white peopke even before he was sworn in when he threw his white grandmother under the bus because she feared rowdy black teenagers at the bus stop

What an ungrateful asshole

Later it was obama attacking s white police officer for doing his job

It never let up with our racist black president

And yes I am a republican and I voted for mccain

I hope you wont turn me in to biden FBI to investigate me

yeh, thanks for that reminder..

I was having a pretty good day until your reminder.

But I will just put it out of my mind seeing as how we can't do a lot for 2 years..

just got depressed again.............

time for an Irish Cream with mostly whiskey

I dropped Fox after election night 2020 because they were blatantly slanted against Trump.

I am just pointing out that The Worthless Negro's hate of Fox isn't based upon what The Worthless Negro thinks it is.

false.

False

False

And now you disavow Senator McCain. Good to see that you confirm you have no character.
I hope you wont turn me in to biden FBI to investigate me
I might. Watch your step...boy.
