In an explosive commentary on the current political landscape, CNN analyst Scott Jennings has unleashed a scathing critique of former President Barack Obama, labeling him as the most hyper-partisan post-president in American history. Jennings’ remarks come in the wake of Obama’s recent comments on a historic peace deal in the Middle East, a deal many attribute to the decisive leadership of President Donald Trump.
On October 9th, Obama took to social media to express cautious optimism about the prospects for peace after years of turmoil in the region. He highlighted the suffering endured by Israeli families and those in Gaza, emphasizing the importance of international support for rebuilding efforts. However, in his message, Obama notably failed to acknowledge the role that Trump’s administration played in facilitating this breakthrough.
“Sorry your dreams of WW3 were stopped by the greatest President of our lifetimes,” tweeted a user in response to Obama’s absence of gratitude towards Trump’s leadership. This sentiment resonates with many who believe that Trump’s foreign policy achievements have been unjustly overlooked by his predecessors.
Jennings didn’t hold back, stating, “He’s been the most hyper-political and hyper-partisan post-president we’ve ever had. He’s still acting that way.” According to Jennings, Obama and his allies are still grappling with the reality that Donald Trump won the popular vote last year and are stuck in a cycle of denial about the success of his administration.
“I think Donald Trump is executing every part of his agenda in almost exactly the way that he promised he was going to,” Jennings noted, adding that Trump’s approach to governance includes enforcing longstanding laws that his predecessor chose to ignore. This has led to unprecedented success on the world stage, leaving Democrats, including Obama, struggling to reconcile their failures with the undeniable rise of Trump.
Moreover, Jennings asserted that the Obama-Biden political era ultimately paved the way for Trump’s emergence as one of the strongest presidents in modern American history. “Obama’s presidency delivered Trump, and then Biden’s presidency delivered stronger than ever,” he declared, reflecting a growing sentiment among conservatives that the previous administration’s policies have backfired spectacularly.
As the political divide in the country continues to widen, Jennings’ remarks serve as a clarion call for those who believe that the legacy of Obama and Biden is one of missed opportunities and misguided leadership. With Trump’s continued influence and success, the question remains: how will the Democrats respond to this new reality?
