Barack Obama took the United States far into left field during eight years in the White House. He imposed the injurious Obamacare, he paid Iran's terror regime billions and repeatedly belittled the nation's Christian heritage.
He then stayed in Washington after his terms, lining up to serve essentially a third term when Hillary Clinton ran in 2016, but was that plan was disrupted by President Donald Trump's victory.
He did get that "third term" when Joe Biden, his own vice president, was elected in that questionable 2020 vote.
And he's now staging meetings and plans to return his party to power, according to the Daily Mail.
That publication confirmed Obama, who became a multimillionaire based on deals he made when he left the White House, "has descended into Washington DC for a secret meeting with Democrats to plot his party's return to power after Donald Trump leaves office."
The report said Obama "huddled" with dozens of Democrat newcomers to the U.S. House in a meeting held by ex-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
"The longtime Democratic leader was also spotted conniving in the shadows with one of the most progressive freshman Democratic lawmakers at the private event," the report revealed.
That would be Rep. Sarah McBride, a man who represents Delaware and is the first man who calls himself a woman to be in Congress.
The report explained McBride told Politico Obama's pathway forward for Democrats includes multiple voices.
"It's not going to be a former political leader or any single current political leader," McBride said.
Instead, the party's return will be because of "a broad bench of younger Democratic elected officials who can take the baton and carry it forward," he said.
Obama told lawmakers, "I get feeling discouraged sometimes. I get feeling worn out, tired, and embattled. But in our second term, Denis McDonough, my chief of staff, used to pass out stickers based on a conversation that he and I had had that talked about, 'we do not succumb to cynicism — cynicism is our enemy.' And it's pervasive in this town."
The report said Obama continued, "And that, I think, is our most important battle, right? We don't give into that, and then we're going to be able to figure out the same stuff."
He still, nearly two decades after he ascended to power at the Democratic National Convention in Denver prior to the 2008 election by planning to "fundamentally transform" America, is insisting his party is "creating the momentum and the opportunity for change."
He, of course, rode into the White House on unhappiness over the economy under George W. Bush, and his involvement in foreign wars.
