    Dan McLaughlin Retweeted POLITICO

    I remember when it was a huge scandal when John McCain ran an ad accusing him of acting more like a celebrity social media influencer.https://twitter.com/politico/status/1199783721706106880 …

    Dan McLaughlin added,

    POLITICOVerified account @politico
    Barack Obama has the most followed Twitter account in the world, but rather than use it as a political weapon, he acts more like a celebrity social media influencer https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2019/11/26/barack-obama-2020-democrats-candidates-biden-073025 …

        I remember vast majority of Latinos voted for Obama, even thought he helped brought down the immigration reform bill McCain supported......

        If you think that’s bad you should see what the President of the United does with his Twitter.

        It wasn't a scandal, it was a line of attack Obama's team hadn't anticipated. You mentally archive misremembered petty grievances so that any politics-related story can be framed as validation or proof of hypocrisy. Meanwhile here is now is the era of Trump and his enablers

        I guess "celebrity social media influencer" = community activist. Obama lit the fire under the Dem's fast tracked evolution to socialism and our current racial and partisan divide. Now, he steps in once in a while to act as the calming/rational voice and is cheered.

        Everything Obama does is politically driven. Lite the fire, act as a moderating voice to bring the fire to a long lasting ember that will grow with intensity and hopefully produce the socialism he envisions. Woo-hoo let's cheer the harbinger. Ugh!

        The scandalous part of that was that McCain actually criticized Obama. CC @Shark_Four

        McCain almost never criticized the Left...hated his base

        McCain never understood how the odds were stacked against him by his media ‘friends’
