"Obama, who is usually quick to jump to conclusions when political violence is directed toward anyone of his race or party, seems very measured and astoundingly restrained when a perpetrator misses the target and it’s Trump."
""Throughout his grueling presidency, Barack Obama assigned motives to any incident involving a white person and a black person. From Henry Louis Gates to Trayvon Martin to Jussie Smollett to George Floyd, until further notice, the person with the most melanin was always presumed innocent. By contrast, Caucasians were usually deemed worthy of special mention, especially in Obama’s April 2009 treatise on right-wing extremism, where Christians, prolifers, ex-military, and white people on the whole were suspected of contemplating terrorist acts because the first African American was elected President of the United States.
Right-wing extremists are harnessing this historical election as a recruitment tool. Many right-wing extremists are antagonistic toward the new presidential administration and its perceived stance on a range of issues, including immigration and citizenship, the expansion of social programs to minorities, and restrictions on firearms ownership and use. Right-wing extremists are increasingly galvanized by these concerns and leverage them as drivers for recruitment. From the 2008 election timeframe to the present, right-wing extremists have capitalized on related racial and political prejudices in expanded propaganda campaigns, thereby reaching out to a wider audience of potential sympathizers.
"Meanwhile, Barack Obama has failed to acknowledge the truth that it’s left-wing extremists who have tried and failed three times to assassinate a sitting president who happens to be white.
"Now, after three serious attacks on the life of one high-profile white person, Barack Obama steps forward to inject calm into a volatile situation by reminding the world that there are no “details about the motives behind” a radicalized leftist traveling cross-country by train, charging into the lobby of the Washington Hilton, armed to the teeth with weaponry that his published manifesto implied he planned to use on the guy sitting with his wife and press secretary at the head table." . . .
