Obama Concerned For His Legacy After Trump Win: Biographer

Former President Obama is terrified for his legacy after Democrat Vice President Kamala Harris got crushed in a landslide victory by President-elect Donald Trump.

That is the word from his biographer, who slammed the former president for “talking down” to voters in “tone-deaf and clueless” preaching before the election, The Daily Mail reported.
Trump’s victory, combined with the way Obama spoke to voters, could destroy the latter’s political relevance, biographer David Garrow said in an interview with the outlet.

“People do not want to be talked down to, no matter who they are. I thought it was tone-deaf and clueless for them to preach as they did. I would expect that perception will be shared by lots of people. If so, I think it reduces their relevance to Bill Clinton territory,” Garrow said.

The biographer said that after the president-elect destroyed the vice president in a resounding victory, former President Obama became “nervous” about his legacy.

“He has been and remains extremely concerned and nervous about his historical legacy,” he said. “That has certainly taken a big hit with Trump once again triumphing.”

Garrow said that because of the drubbing that Democrats took in not only the presidential campaign but the Senate and many House contests, the Party will not want the old guard campaigning for them in the future.

“The conclusion for Democrats is that they’ve got to dispense with these people from the past, including Hillary Clinton too, and move to a new generation of figures who are not in the AOC club at all,” he said.

But, he said, the former president still has the star power to command massive speaking fees.

“I’m not sure that would necessarily decline. He still has the celebrity factor of being an ex-president,” he said.
