Hannity slams Obama’s ‘sick’ obsession with Trump

FOX News host Sean Hannity on Thursday lashed out at Barack Obama following the former president’s recent remarks in Chicago, which were largely interpreted as being directed towards President Trump.

Obama is “obviously sick, pathetic, and twisted in this obsession with President Trump. It’s kind of like everybody in the media,” Hannity said on his show.

“Every single chance Obama gets, whether it’d be here at home, overseas, it doesn’t matter. He’s trashing, trying to undermine the president,” Hannity continued. “Maybe he can’t get over the fact that his record was atrocious. Maybe he needs to take his own advice and accept the results of the election.”

Hannity went on to say, “may be try taking some notes from George W. Bush because George W. Bush never criticized you.”

Obama on Tuesday warned against staying complacent in the face of rising nativism, citing the rise of Hitler as an example of what can happen if democracy is not defended, reports Crain’s Chicago Business.

“We have to tend to this garden of democracy or else things could fall apart quickly,” Obama told the audience at the Economic Club of Chicago. “That’s what happened in Germany in the 1930s, which despite the democracy of the Weimar Republic and centuries of high-level cultural and scientific achievements, Adolph Hitler rose to dominate.”

“Sixty million people died…So, you’ve got to pay attention. And vote,” he further noted.
