The Democratic Game Plan To Recapture The White House Is One Built On Shifting Sand


Obama and Elizabeth Warren just secretly met in this 3rd floor office…

President Barack Obama has big plans for Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren. They both have a 2020 presidential run in their sights — and they are actively plotting to get Warren into the Oval Office as the 46th President of the United States.
That’s according to Politico, which reported Monday that secret meetings between Obama and Warren — as well as eight other top Democratic candidates — have been taking place quietly for months inside Obama’s third floor personal office in the World Wildlife Fund in Washington, D.C.

Obama wants his ducks in a row to take back the United States, so he’s calling in top party leaders to figure out who he’ll coach.

“All the meetings were arranged quietly, without even some close advisers to the people involved being told of the conversations, in part because of how much Obama bristles at his private meetings becoming public knowledge,” Politico reported.
The meetings are all the same, political experts say: Obama is obsessed with Democrats beating President Donald Trump and restoring his legacy, and the former president is concerned that Democrats are too off-balanced to pull it off.
So he’s coaching Democratic frontrunners on what to say and how to strike back alley deals with powerful political figures. He’s already met twice with Warren in the past year.

“The first was in the spring of 2017 after Warren said she was ‘troubled’ by the $400,000 Obama was getting to speak at a Wall Street investment firm, describing it as an example of the influence of money that she called ‘a snake that slithers through Washington.’ Obama responded by inviting her in,” Politico reported.
Warren left the meeting promising to leave the issue alone; she’s since been invited back. “The second meeting, warmer from start to finish, came just this past April and ran well into 90 minutes. They talked about Richard Cordray, the former head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau who is now the Democratic nominee for governor in Ohio. They reminisced. They talked about Trump.”
Over the past year, Obama has also had a secret meeting with Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, a socialist outsider that voters complained was sabotaged by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in the 2016 primary. He’s also met with former Vice President Joe Biden, former Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick, and five other top Democrats about the 2020 plot.
What are your thoughts on Obama’s 2020 plan?
