Wednesday night is a big night at the sad telethon that is the virtual Democratic National Convention, with Kamala Harris, Hillary Clinton, and Barack Obama all set to play their prerecorded speeches. Bits of these are always leaked to the press, and word is that Obama will fault President Trump for showing no interest in finding common ground.
From Obama's DNC speech:
Trump's "shown no interest in putting in the work; no interest in finding common ground; no interest in using the awesome power of his office to help anyone but himself … no interest in treating the presidency as anything but one more reality show"

When did @BarackObama try to find "common ground"?
I remember lots of "false choices." No common ground. https://t.co/WHiuo61NJh

Barack Obama was the “I won” guy, right? Elections have consequences? I have a pen and a phone? Yeah, we don’t remember any significant effort on his part to find common ground with the GOP.
I remember "I won".

I remember “elections have consequences” as one of the first Obama doctrines.

Obama didn't say common ground. He said I got a pen and a phone.

Obama sent Boehner packing saying “I won; you lost”. Great common ground to impress that fact.

Obama told McCain to sit down. "I won." @TuckerCarlson

You don’t understand. Democrats are always right, therefore Republicans need to make concessions and give in to the Dems. That’s what they mean by “putting in the work”. They mean doing what they want.

No need for common ground. The "Golden Child" blessed us by his very existence.

Obama’s common ground was giving billions to Iran while ignoring Israel.

The democrats claim that they are unifiers? Who are they trying to unify? Pro-lifers? Pro 2A'a? Religious people?
Nope.
They are only unifying resistance towards the above-mentioned people. They are on a hell-bent mission to remake America in their radical image.

Do these people not have an actual political platform?? They have zero self-awareness or else they'd realize this is backfiring like crazy.

my only wish is that Obama was giving this speech the weekend before the election.
I really believe he will infuriate people.

You know if Joe Biden wins he’ll just put the Obama crew back in place and let them run the ship.
