Description
At a rally in Michigan, former President Obama joked about how Trump’s White House decor looked like “Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory,” and conservatives quickly pounced on that comment. Right-wingers argued that Obama’s joke was evidence that Democrats are elitist and out of touch. The problem, however, is that nobody cares. In fact, it’s obvious that even pundits on Fox News don’t really give a s**t about this manufactured controversy. It’s a sign that Republicans are scraping the bottom of the barrel in a last ditch effort to find *something* to take the heat off of Trump before Tuesday’s election. In this video we’ll talk about how this new culture war distraction is turning out to be a big wet fart for the GOP.
