Obama: “I Will Admit It Is Worse Than Even I Expected, But I Did Warn Y’All”
Former President Barack Obama on Saturday campaigned for Virginia Democratic nominee for governor Abigail Spanberger.
FORMER PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: We’ve got an HHS secretary who opposes proven science and promotes quack medicine. A top White House aide who calls Democrats, the whole party, domestic extremists. We’ve got some poor labor economist who got fired for accurately reporting bad jobs numbers that the president didn’t like. I mean, it’s like every day is Halloween, except it’s all tricks and no treats. And here’s the thing, it’s not as if we didn’t see some of this coming. I will admit it’s worse than even I expected, but I did warn y’all. I did. You can run the tape. And by the way, he warned you too, because he said what he was going to do. But the fact is, there were plenty of people who voted for Trump and the Republicans anyway. And it wasn’t because they wanted to give up the right to free speech or see our public health systems torn down. But because they were understandably frustrated with inflation, and gas prices, and the difficulty of affording a home, and worries about their children’s future, and so they were willing to take a chance. Now, nine months later, you’ve got to ask yourself, has any of that gotten better? Has the economy working better for you?
