Former President Obama just will not go away. It seems like every other day, he is on a podcast, doing an interview, or making news by commenting on the issues of the day.
At the same time, he seems like the incredible shrinking man, because his legacy is being gutted by Trump’s second term.
Now he is doing ads for Prop 50 in California, in which he accuses Republicans of trying to rig the next election.
Breitbart News reports:
Barack Obama Claims Republicans Want to ‘Steal’ Seats, ‘Rig’ Election in Ad for Newsom’s Gerrymandering Proposal
Former President Barack Obama and California Governor Gavin Newsom are urging Californians to vote in favor of Proposition 50, a ballot measure that would replace the state’s independent redistricting system with a legislature-approved map projected to eliminate several Republican-held congressional districts.
On Tuesday, California Governor Gavin Newsom posted on X, “Listen to @barackobama,” sharing a new video featuring former President Barack Obama encouraging voters to support Proposition 50 in the state’s November 4 special election.
In the video, Obama says:
“California, the whole nation is counting on you. Democracy is on the ballot November 4. Republicans want to steal enough seats in Congress to rig the next election and wield unchecked power for two more years. With Prop 50, you can stop Republicans in their tracks. Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, which preserves Independent Redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide. Return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.”

People are pushing back on this ad and its message:
Maybe in California this guy still has credibility, but the rest of the nation has caught on to his phony baloney. "Unchecked power" — that's what we've got with the Dem super majorities in Sacramento. Say No to Prop 50. https://t.co/23XgEYiRh0

How about no @GavinNewsom. @BarackObama is old and washed up. His "Eloquent" lies don't affect us anymore. https://t.co/lu0zAypqKl

It's no secret that the left-wing lunatics still take their marching orders from Barack Hussein Obama, the second worst president in U.S. history, only behind Sleepy Joe Biden that was incoherent for 4 years. https://t.co/zuPCFrL792

No. We put up with his communist bullshit for 8 years—12 if you consider his 3rd term from 2020-2024. https://t.co/IO1D2zi6FL

Obama increasingly looks like a man who is just desperate for his party to cling to power.
