SEE IT: Obama Dropped A Nuke On Democrats’ ‘Schumer Shutdown,’ But There’s One HUGE Catch
Late Friday, our government was thrust into what’s being called the “Schumer Shutdown” after Democrats put the interest of illegals before the well-being of Americans. In a shocking twist, Democrats just got ripped apart by former President Barack Obama in a clip that just recently resurfaced. Unfortunately for them, it all centers around their part in the government shutdown — but there’s one huge catch you have to see to believe.
Democrats are catching hell from all sides. With even the liberal media and their own base saying the government shutdown is completely and entirely the fault of Democratic lawmakers, it’s kind of hard to argue otherwise. Sadly, it doesn’t look like there is an end in sight at this point in time.
Be that as it may, things just got a lot worse for the left after a clip of former President Barack Obama just resurfaced. As it turns out, the former president ripped into the government shutdown, but there’s actually a huge catch — the clip is from 2013 when he was scolding Republicans for the government shutdown during his presidency, but it certainly applies to the current situation today and what the Democrats are doing.
As BizPac Review reports, “Obama’s speech from the 2013 shutdown drops a nuke on the Schumer shutdown.” Even better yet, it hits on the same exact topics that are relevant to today’s events such as immigration reform. However, the biggest problem for the left is that everything he yelled at Republicans for back then applies directly to Democrats today.
“You don’t like a particular policy or a particular president? Then argue for your position. Go out there and win an election. Push to change it. But don’t break it,” Obama said in his remarks on October 17, 2013, after Congress reached a deal to reopen the government, The Daily Caller reports.
“Don’t break what our predecessors spent over two centuries building. That’s not being faithful to what this country’s about,” the former president added at the time. “Now, there’s been a lot of discussion lately of the politics of this shutdown,” Obama continued. “But let’s be clear. There are no winners here. These last few weeks have inflicted completely unnecessary damage on our economy.”
Essentially, Obama had a clear message to Republicans: “I won. Get over it,” basically telling members of the political right that the things were going to go the way he wanted because he was president. What’s more, this was actually the second time he had made similar remarks. Previously, in 2010, he smugly told Senator John McCain that “the election is over.”
Now that the shoe is on the other foot, we’ve all seen how well this same sentiment is going over for President Donald Trump. Furthermore, how do you think Democrats would react if Trump told them that he won the election and that they better get over it and do things according to his wishes? What do you think the liberals of America would do? I think we’d see riots — again.
Indeed, there would be yet another national hissy fit, and this really just goes to show the hypocrisy of the left. Not only do these people expect and demand things to go a certain way when they’re in charge, but they do the same things they accused Republicans of when the situation was reversed.
Currently, Democrats aren’t looking too good considering the fact that nearly everyone is blaming them for what happened. Making matters worse for them, when you show exactly how you would like to be treated when in a position of authority only to turn around and do exactly what you once condemned, well, that isn’t a good color on anyone.
The left has some serious self-reflecting to do, but the main thing here is that former President Barack Obama eventually got what he wanted out of the government shutdown standoff. My guess is, President Donald Trump will too — it’s just a shame that the hypocritical left has to hold this country hostage while they try to make a point. What a sad day for America. Luckily, we can change all that with midterm elections fastly approaching this year. It’s time America tells the Democrats, “Never again will you put illegals before those you are supposed to serve” — because they won’t be serving, they’ll be voted out!
