Former President Obama made an appearance at Hamilton College this week and tried to take some cheap shots at the Trump administration.
He was clearly trying to echo the talking points currently being pushed by his party and the media.
For some reason, Obama thinks no one remembers anything about his presidency.
From NBC News:
Former President Barack Obama said he is “deeply concerned” with some of the actions that President Donald Trump and his administration have taken and seemed to call out the Republican Party for not pushing back on them…
Obama said he’s more troubled by a White House that takes aim at law firms that represent ideas or parties that its occupants disagree with, and that the administration has punished media outlets. Trump has signed executive orders penalizing major law firms and lawyers, prompting outrage within the legal community. The White House has also barred The Associated Press from coverage over its refusal to refer to the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America.
“That kind of behavior is contrary to the basic compact we have as Americans,” he said.
Obama suggested that Republicans would be outraged if he had done similar things as president.
“Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials from the White House press corps,” he said, adding, “It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent now would have tolerated behavior like that from me or a whole bunch of my predecessors.”
Here’s the clip:
Obama: Imagine if I had done any of this. Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials from the White House press corps. Imagine if I had said to law firms that were representing parties that were upset with policies my administration had initiated, that you will not be allowed… pic.twitter.com/htecKDCbyi

People on Twitter/X provided quite a few reminders for him.
Obama’s DOJ and Eric Holder only spied on then-Fox correspondent James Rosen, secretly seized AP phone records and rejected more FOIA requests than any administration in history.
Otherwise, great post. https://t.co/xC2BESdu5O

He sued nuns, sent the IRS after conservative book groups, and droned an American citizen for saying the same things pro Hamas students are saying on college campuses today. https://t.co/T2xWw6r78X

Obama DID try and bar Fox News from a WH Press Pool. And he DID use the IRS to go after Tea Party organizations who campaigned against ObamaCare. Not to mention, he used the FBI to spy on Trump.
In what alternate reality do these people operate in? https://t.co/4dlB4GuFTC

He literally ordered the murder of an American citizen with a drone strike. https://t.co/a9XYSOW7ks

No need to imagine—Obama did something worse than any president in history. He used the full weight of the federal government to orchestrate a smear campaign framing his successor as a Russian agent. It remains the most disgraceful abuse of power in modern American politics. https://t.co/X5EIPwZwGY

The left loves to pretend that Obama’s presidency was scandal-free. He apparently believes this too, but as you can see, no one else has forgotten a thing.
