Former President Barack Obama has been accused by his biographer of “talking down” to voters and employing “tone-deaf and clueless” rhetoric that ultimately damaged Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign efforts. In an interview with the Daily Mail, author David Garrow claimed that Obama’s rhetoric, along with Trump’s decisive victory in the election, has reduced Obama to “Bill Clinton levels” of political relevance.
“People do not want to be talked down to, no matter who they are,” Garrow said. “I thought it was tone-deaf and clueless for them to preach as they did.”
Garrow, who authored Rising Star: The Making of Barack Obama in 2017 and is a Pulitzer Prize winner, predicted that Obama’s influence has waned significantly, placing him on par with Bill Clinton in terms of political relevance. He also predicted that both the former president and his wife Michelle would likely disappear from the political scene.
Furthermore, Garrow claimed that Obama is still concerned about his legacy, especially after Trump’s recent victory.
“He has been and remains extremely concerned and nervous about his historical legacy,” Garrow added. “That has certainly taken a big hit with Trump once again triumphing.” […]

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
