How dare Obama lecture the rest of us about ‘divisiveness’?

In a recent interview with “No Lie” podcaster Brian Tyler Cohen, former President Barack Obama claimed that conservatives do “the mean, angry, exclusive, us/them, divisive politics. That’s their home court. Our court is coming together.”

This is a jaw-dropping contention coming from a man who once accused Americans who refuse to embrace his brand of progressive politics of being “bitter” and clinging “to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them.”

Is there any group of people in the country who exude more “antipathy to people who aren’t like them” than progressives?

Virtually every poll taken on the issue finds Democrats are far less inclined to accept Republicans as friends or family members.

This comes as no surprise to anyone who’s witnessed the screeching moralistic anger of the average leftist activist — a disposition popularized during the Obama era.

Obama’s entire scandal-ridden supercilious presidency was focused on coercing, browbeating and, ultimately, slandering the bitter clingers.
