Obama’s attack came in a leaked recording of a conference call with former administration staff as they discussed the 2020 election.
He said: “This upcoming election at all levels is very important because what we are going to be fighting for is not just a particular individual or a political party.
“What we are fighting against is against these long-term trends where being selfish, being tribal, being divided, and seeing others as enemies has become a stronger drive in American life.”
“And by the way, we are also seeing it internationally. It is part of the reason why the response to this global crisis has been so anemic and irregular.
“It would have been bad even with the best governments.
Obama’s comments came as:
“It has been an absolutely chaotic mess when that mindset, of ‘what’s in it for me’ and ‘bugging everyone else’, when that mindset becomes operational in our government.”
He added that this was the reason “he will spend as much time as necessary and campaign as hard as he can for Joe Biden,” according to the tape. obtained by Yahoo News
It is his clearest signal, yet he will make a significant contribution to the 2020 campaign after critics claimed he was slow to endorse his former vice president.
