I remember the scene on the Senate floor. The occasion was the vote to repeal the Affordable Care Act\u2014Obamacare. It came down to John McCain, who hated Donald Trump with a burning passion eclipsing common Trump Derangement Syndrome. As one of his final acts on this Earth, McCain, aping every corrupt, movie Roman Emperor, raised his thumb and ominously, slowly, grinning like an evil lunatic, turned it thumbs down. Obamacare\u2014arguably Obama\u2019s most expensive destructive legacy– was saved, and not because it has ever worked. McCain saved it out of spite.<\/p>

That was only one of Obama\u2019s destructive legacies.\u00a0\u00a0Jon Gabriel\u2019s classic Twitter post sums up another:<\/p>\n

America, which had all but eradicated racism, and twice elected Obama as evidence of that, and because he promised to finish the job, instead set race relations back decades, and it plagues us today. At the New York Post, Leil Leibovitz notes Obama also gave new life to antisemitism:<\/p>\n

\n

Two hundred ten years ago this summer, a 19-year-old woman named Mary Shelley, bored one stormy afternoon, decided to write the scariest story ever told.<\/p>\n

It was a tale of a brilliant and arrogant man who wanted to change the world but ended up creating a monster. She named him Barack Obama.<\/p>\n

All right, she named him Dr. Frankenstein. But had the great author been around to witness\u00a0Adam Hamawy win the Democratic primary\u00a0in New Jersey\u2019s 12th Congressional District, she would\u2019ve understood right away that she was looking at a familiar tale of hubris, malice and ghouls on the loose.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

It\u2019s certainly not unreasonable to view the social destruction wrought by Obama as monstrous.<\/p>\n

\n

Under Obama, the Democrats became a gorgeous mosaic of victimized minorities, encouraged to seek retribution for wrongs real or perceived by grabbing a pitchfork and going out in search of a conservative to blame.<\/p>\n

For a while, it all went swimmingly. Obama built a forever campaign that encouraged everyone to give to the party \u2014 not only their money but also their loyalty. Endless chatter about \u201cthe right side of history\u201d was designed to make it clear that unless you wholeheartedly supported whatever the president and his aides told you was proper, good and desired, you\u2019d be transgressing against history itself.<\/p>\n

To cement his coalition, Obama encouraged what is now known as the Red-Green Alliance, bringing together progressives keen on socialism and Muslims adhering to Sharia law.<\/p>\n

The one thing both odd bedfellows had in common, of course,\u00a0was Jew hatred, now as then a potent political fuel.<\/p>\n

Who could ever imagine this coalition would eventually promote demonic candidates like Hamawy, who testified on behalf of Omar Abdel Rahman, the blind sheikh who inspired the 1993 World Trade Center bombing?<\/p>

The answer, of course, is everyone, or at least anyone even vaguely familiar with scary stories. Because in horror tales, careless actions always have disastrous consequences.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I\u2019d argue Obama\u2019s actions, such as funding Iranian terrorism by, among other channels, sending billions in pallets of cash directly to Iran, and enacting the disastrous Iran deal, never submitted to Congress as a treaty, and which guaranteed Iran would go nuclear, weren\u2019t at all careless, but purposeful and evil. Identity politics and antisemitism go hand in hand, and they were given \u201cwhole-of-government\u201d force under Obama\u2019s third term with Joe Biden as his witless proxy.<\/p>\n

\n

That\u2019s how you get guys like Graham Platner, who seems to\u00a0have never met a Nazi\u00a0he didn\u2019t wish to emulate.<\/p>\n

Or creeps like Zohran Mamdani, who kicked off his public career by rapping lovingly about terrorists.<\/p>\n

Now we can add Hamawy to this list \u2014 but the jihad-fancier from Jersey won\u2019t be the last abomination unleashed on America courtesy of Obama\u2019s Democratic Party.<\/p>\n

Because as every horror fan will tell you, monsters, once released, are very hard to rein in.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

While Obama\u2019s public popularity has faded, as witnessed by the facial expressions and body language of a room of young black men hectored by Obama to remain ghetto and on the Democrat reservation, he is yet a force in the Democrat Party. And though his coup against Donald Trump largely failed, we still suffer from his weaponization of government, particularly federal law enforcement. Current Democrats, shown the way by Obama, promise even worse weaponization the moment they again gain power. And don\u2019t imagine Democrats haven\u2019t forgotten this Obama longing: \u00a0<\/p>\n

\n

We’ve got to have a civilian national security force that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded [as America\u2019s military].<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Thank God he was never able to realize that totalitarian nightmare, but the monsters he resurrected and unleashed haunt us still.<\/p>\n
