B-Man Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 TAKE A BOW! Ben Rhodes manages to make Obama sound EVEN MORE insufferably arrogant Let’s face it: It’s not really fair to expect Ben Rhodes to be able to handle Hillary Clinton losing to Donald Trump when his own boss was apparently this neck-deep in denial: from the New York Times: “What if we were wrong?” he asked aides riding with him in the armored presidential limousine. He had read a column asserting that liberals had forgotten how important identity was to people and had promoted an empty cosmopolitan globalism that made many feel left behind. “Maybe we pushed too far,” Mr. Obama said. “Maybe people just want to fall back into their tribe.” His aides reassured him that he still would have won had he been able to run for another term and that the next generation had more in common with him than with Mr. Trump. Mr. Obama, the first black man elected president, did not seem convinced. “Sometimes I wonder whether I was 10 or 20 years too early,” he said. In the weeks after Mr. Trump’s election, Mr. Obama went through multiple emotional stages, according to a new book by his longtime adviser Benjamin J. Rhodes. At times, the departing president took the long view, at other points, he flashed anger. He called Mr. Trump a “cartoon” figure who cared more about his crowd sizes than any particular policy. And he expressed rare self-doubt, wondering whether he had misjudged his own influence on American history. Is that supposed to make Obama more sympathetic? America let him down again, you guys... "I'm just ahead of my time" is the most Obama excuse ever. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's from that God-awful HBO documentary that I'd mentioned earlier, somewhere. And I don't think he's afraid. I think he's genuinely in a state of shock, unable to understand why the hoi polloi won't do what the elite leadership-class like him tell them to.

I agree sir, please check the "privilege" from another Rhodes excerpt.......... Have a tissue ready before reading Ben Rhodes’ account of Obama’s final farewell to Angela Merkel The New York Times published a long piece Wednesday hyping “The World as It Is,” the upcoming memoir by longtime Barack Obama adviser Ben Rhodes. As Twitchy reported, Rhodes has managed to make Obama sound even more arrogant than some suspected, with him contemplating things like, “Sometimes I wonder whether I was 10 or 20 years too early” and “Maybe we pushed too far.” Americans weren’t ready for the progressive future he envisioned, it seems, and just wanted to “fall back into their tribes.” There’s another part of the story making the rounds on social media, and this one is Rhodes’ account of Obama’s final farewell to Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany, who felt obliged to run again after Donald Trump’s election to help maintain “the liberal national order.” Your daily reminder that Ben Rhodes is a fiction writer.... and a bad one. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In truth, that's a genuinely human moment. There is this absolute sense of bewilderment. Like Mr. Bellows after Barbara Eden makes something disappear when he turns his back for a second. Unfortunately, human moments are wasted on people like Ben Rhodes. If he were a genuinely gracious person, instead of the spiteful, sniveling, childish, thin-skinned left-wing nutbag that he plays in social media, it would be an iconic moment. Instead, he's gone SO full-goose-bozo on anyone who says the word "Trump" that the only thing people want to do when they watch that video is mock him.
