Kamala Harris has a serious problem with black voters. Barack Obama can clearly sense it.

Obama was in Pittsburgh for a Black Voters for Harris event – as opposed to the ‘white dudes‘ they were courting over the summer – and tore into “brothers” for not backing his chosen candidate.

“We have not yet seen the same kinds of energy and turnout in all quarters in our neighborhoods and communities as we saw when I was running,” Obama admitted. 

“Now, I also want to say that seems to be more pronounced with the brothers. So if you don’t mind, just for a second, I’m going to speak to y’all for a minute.”

That’s when Professor Obama lectured black voters and suggested their lack of excitement for Harris was motivated by sexism.

Lecturing your own voters and claiming their lack of support for Kamala Harris is misogynistic, while simultaneously turning it into a race-driven argument, is an interesting tactic.

Obama basically just told the “brothers” that if they don’t vote for Harris, ‘you ain’t black.’

And then things got worse.

“You’re coming up with all kinds of reasons and excuses (not to vote for Harris), I’ve got a problem with that,” said Obama.

“Because part of it makes me think – and I’m speaking to men directly – part of it makes me think that, well, you just aren’t feeling the idea of having a woman as president, and you’re coming up with other alternatives and other reasons for that.”

Catch that? Have a problem with the garbage economy? That’s just an excuse not to vote for a woman!

Low Energy For Kamala

The takeaway here isn’t that Barack Obama would stoop to race and sex-baiting in order to motivate black men to get behind Kamala Harris. No, that’s been the playbook for eons.

The takeaway here is the desperation. Look at the somber tone Obama is taking while talking down to these men. It’s clear Democrats are seeing trouble in the internal polls regarding support from the black community.

Kamala, you see, has no street cred and Barack Obama knows it. She struggles immensely in trying to connect with minority communities. A rich history of trying to prosecute parents in low-income minority families for their kids’ school attendance doesn’t help.

Harris, in one resurfaced video clip, can be heard describing how she tried intimidating a single homeless mother of three kids. The Democrat can be seen laughing about sending her office’s homicide and gang prosecutors to school to meet with the struggling woman. 

“When you go over there, look really mean,” she recalled.

Another sticking point for minority voters has been Harris’s history of expanding convictions of marijuana users in California.

As California attorney general, Harris oversaw thousands of marijuana-related convictions. Critics argue that these convictions disproportionately affected black and brown communities and that Harris’s office fought against efforts to reduce sentences or expunge records.

Oh, not to mention that old stubborn economy. Less money in your pocket affects everybody, regardless of skin color.

This isn’t the first time Obama has criticized minorities for not toeing the line.

The famously un-macho former President has said black men are “susceptible” to Donald Trump’s “macho style” because of a history in the hip-hop community “rapping about bling and depicting women in a certain way.”

He also took a shot at Hispanic voters who side with Trump on issues like traditional marriage and abortion.

“People were surprised about a lot of Hispanic folks who voted for Trump,” Obama observed after the 2020 election.

“But there are a lot of evangelical Hispanics who, you know — the fact that Trump says racist things about Mexicans or puts detainees, you know, undocumented workers in cages, they think that’s less important than the fact that you know he supports their views on, you know, gay marriage or abortion.”

Insulting voters is certainly an interesting tactic. No doubt people who are just tired of being poor and running out of money due to the Biden-Harris economy are going to respond favorably to the insults.
