According to right-wing activist and Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, the Donald Trump/MAGA movement was created because Republicans were looking for “a white Obama.”
During a podcast at a pastors’ summit on Wednesday, Kirk seemed to admit that the GOP had some blatantly racist motivations when they nominated the failed one-term former president in 2016.
“The Obama movement was larger than life,” Kirk said. “They rode this idea of candidate enthusiasm and this idea of hope and change and all of that. But you live by the sword, you die by the sword.”
“And Obama got re-elected in 2012, but then Republican voters said, our turn,” he added. “We want a white Obama.”
Only Trump (who suggested that Obama was illegitimate and wasn’t even born in the United States, despite his birth in Hawaii) could fill the bill of a white Obama, Kirk explained:
“And the only, I mean, you’ve got Jeb Bush, you had Marco Rubio, and who was the only person that could potentially play the charismatic game as talented as Barack Obama? Donald Trump.”
Donald Trump is the white Obama? That may well be one of the dumbest things to ever ooze from the mouth of a Trump worshiper.
Let’s do a quick compare and contrast:
- Obama was about hope and change for the better. Trump was about hatred and taking the country back to the days when blacks weren’t allowed to eat in the same restaurants as whites.
- President Obama stressed equality and inclusion. Trump used veiled white nationalism and fear of others to accomplish his rise to the presidency.
- Obama is a man of intellect, decency, and kindness. Trump is a lowlife thug who revels in ignorance, preaches division, and loves no one but himself.
Trump humpers think they’ve found the white Obama? All they’ve found is a rehash of George Wallace circa 1963. No wonder they love the evil he represents.
