Obama to Voters – “Restore Some Sanity In Our Politics”

The coming midterm elections should be taken seriously, as a chance to “restore some sanity in our politics,” Former President Barack Obama said at a campaign event in California on Saturday – a clear swipe against Donald Trump and the normalization of insanity since Trump won the White House.

Obama didn’t mention President Donald Trump by name during a 20-minute speech Saturday in the key Southern California battleground of Orange County but the allusions were clear.

“We’re in a challenging moment because, when you look at the arc of American history, there’s always been a push and pull between those who want to go forward and those who want to look back, between those who want to divide and those are seeking to bring people together, between those who promote the politics of hope and those who exploit the politics of fear,” he said.

His appearance — one day after a strongly worded critique of Trump at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign — touched on themes of retirement security, climate change and education.

“If we don’t step up, things can get worse,” the former president told the audience at the Anaheim Convention Center. “In two months, we have the chance to restore some sanity to our politics. We have the chance to flip the House of Representatives and make sure there are real checks and balances in Washington.”

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
