- President Obama says he bears responsibility for the current state of the Democratic Party. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, hosts of The Young Turks, break down Obama’s legacy. Tell us what you think in the comment section below. www.tytnetwork.com/go
“GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS: Mr. President, thank you for doing this. As we're walking towards your office I have to think you're going to miss this short commute.
BARACK OBAMA: [laughs] I am, it's one of the biggest benefits of being president that you really don't think about until you get here. I have never had to travel more than thirty seconds from home to office, and it's because of that that I've been able to maintain, you know, really a family life that has nurtured and sustained me during this time.
STEPHANOPOULOS: How long did it take for the White House to feel like home though?
OBAMA: You know, it, it took shorter, I think, for us, just because when you've got little kids, and you're tucking them in -
STEPHANOPOULOS: It's home.
OBAMA: It's home, right? When you open a door and they're in their pajamas and they're, you know, wrestling with you and asking you, you know, to read to them and stuff, you know it starts feeling like home pretty quick. Not to mention having a mother-in-law upstairs, and the dog, and now two. It feels even more like home now because you have all these memories that were formed watching your kids grow up.”

Takes balls to admit it was all your fault
He's doing the right thing though
Hillary would never admit fault
Maybe that's because it's not her fault. She did everything she was able to do, if you let the republicans brainwash you with lies, that falls on you.
Still With her We supported Sanders. Not Wannabe Mrs Republican.
Still With her okay loser .
Is Obama anyone else's favourite president?
Jeremy Cheng no
Mine
He's more likeable than most, but they are all murderers and supporters of big business.
Jeremy Cheng...Obama's my favorite worst president of all time. He literally got away with doing nothing for 8 years.
Correctrix this guy is say best prez of u.s. history
Ana your meltdown on election night was hilarious.
Butch Vega it was
your attempt at trolling is lame.
Butch Vega "I'm better than you!!! You're stupid!!!!!"
Hahahaha!
lmao! all the gay frogs here have to cling to the election results.
Keep the memory alive boys it'll be the only thing you get.
The predictable excuses you people are gonna make for Trump's incompetence, is already hilarious.
A leader takes responsibility, is rational, and examines the situation at all times.
In B4 the Trump trolls [EDIT, also FIRST]
Mad Max you don't get around much on the internet do you
+Donald Trump Do you people ever say anything else or was this pretty much your complete vocabulary?
The problem is Obama ran on change but brought no change.
He said: "I'm not going to play the game a little better, I'm going to change the way the game is played". But he didn't. And so the frustration that people felt last time around was at an even higher boiling point this time around. The only way the Dems could have won his election is if they ran Bernie Sanders.
jamviator people forget the type of change he ran on. he said he was going to work with people. team of rivals and all tgat. that what peopke wanted at the time. i just the republicans took that as weakness
also people forget what los him the midterms. Job didnt come back by the time. And dems back away from him because of it. it took a bit for his plans to go into effect. He popular NOW....but at the time before the plans went into effect he wasnt
In the end he is largely to blame because he didn't push for the change that people elected him to make. Most things remained the same. The banks got bigger, tax cuts for the wealthy remained. Only thing happened is the economy scarcely avoided a complete collapse. But no actual change took place and he didnt push for it.
@@jamviator OBAMA had PLAN.
OBAMA administration is being investigated for human trafficking. Research -Myths and Facts about women and children sex trafficking . OBAMA fraudulent birth certificate, passport, documents . Who is OBAMA?
OBAMA sabotaged TRUMP and Keri Lake election.
Cenk look a bit winded. I Hope it isn't a deficiency intake of bacon grease that's causing this problem.
Kevin Montrond you have to admit . His comment was pretty funny
+Kareem
Cenk sandy dry ass is already creaking and the show hasn't yet begun. Just that he applied his grease in the wrong hemisphere.
mydogatemyhomework. Lol . He does look like a honey glazed ham lol
Darien Norman I have to admit as well and I'm not TYT troll either 😂😂😂
He had his ups and downs, but Obama did one hell of a job!
wesley ogilvie lol... not quite. Definitely more downs than ups. He promised change and all we got was half loaves and incremental change. Him doing absolutely nothing when he had a super majority.... there was no excuse for that and it ended up killing the dems. Obama and Hillary was a one two punch that killed the party
He did a hell of a job expanding us from two wars to seven.
No he didn't.
he did nothing
drones, NSA, wall street - what did obama do again?
NO.
HILLARY IS TO BLAME!!!
Obama, "I lied about hope, change, and used the DNC/Hildog to throw Bernie under the bus.Then I destroyed the Democratic party that Hillary wanted to do so badly. "
OBAMA administration is being investigated for human trafficking. Research -Myths and Facts about women and children sex trafficking . OBAMA fraudulent birth certificate, passport, documents . Who is OBAMA?
Hey TYT, why is the audio so low?
so true. I could list all the reasons why but I cbf shouting them down Cenk's cavernous asshole of a face.
It's not his fault. It's Hillary's. She was a horrible candidate.
If this was Trump, the left would be like " Trump just addmitted he is a loser and was a horrible president" but since its obama its "aww its okay buddy we forgive you."
Small correction: Obama did not have a supermajority until months after the '08 election.
"It's not a black and white issue" TRIGGERED
Its a wonder how many of you are able to find your way here... Im impressed.
TYT you gotta turn up the volume on many of your vids. Sometimes it's so hard to hear what's being said while the commercial and other vids are loud as f.
Hur Hur hur
@@blackbruno50 lmao
Hilary is to blame, no one likes her. Neither dems or reps... Obama, you did your best and it was much better that the situation allowed.
Atmost11 TPP was negative, yes. What else? Even better, can you provide a list of positives and negatives so we judge him by an overall performance.
Atmost11 Positives: He got US out of the economical crisis (you can still argue that US is in crisis but then take a look at the rest of the West, still struggling. Maybe its a trend), Cuba deal, Obamacare (a watered down version), pardoned the biggest number of small time criminals (helps economy), land conservation (most than any president), criticized Israel's expansion (for an US politician this is generally a big 'No No'), got the army out of Iraq (well well), no boots in many troublesome regions. All this while having Congress against his policies, constantly. Probably he was so much obstructed just because of his skin tone, I am actually starting to believe that. Maybe it was done so that the republicans can brag throughout the history that a black Hussein got to be a president for two turns but couldn't make anything out of it. The guy inherited probably the WORST of the worst turns in the history of the US (two wars, the second worst economical crisis in the history of the world, a concentration camp in Cuba and absolutely corrupt Washington).
Negatives: TPP push, too many drone bombings
+allanhouston22 wtf.. Hillary is not to blame for this BS.. Are you saying that Hilary should have let Bernie win the election? *lol*.. That is cheating you know that right..
the reason why Bernie lost is because his supports are stupid. they forgot to sign up as DNC. in some states only DNC ,RNC can vote. some in states it's even harder to change party's.
+Atmost11 TPP will have let Americans companies pay more wages to their workers. in/out America.
Dam straight. He screwed up this country so bad that people were sick of it🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸MAGA🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️
What memories we have, I remember almost every Democrat saying, we don't want Obama and Obamacare any where near us in 2010 and 2012 but now it's all his fault. It's Ride or Die Bitches and you didn't ride and you lost... Heard someone else say, He had a Super Majority for 2 years, Ted Kennedy Died in 2009 and Byrd was sick so that was maybe a year. We're having a little selective memory ourselves TYT.
D stands for Deflated.
It was his fault he could have endorse Bernie that would have push the progressive movement
kenz200g and revitalized the Democratic Party in the process.
The audio volume on the videos on your channel seems to be lower than that for other, comparable channels.
President Obama "My docket was really full here." *cuts interview short to play golf
blame Hillary and the dnc
OH BOY A NEW YOUNG TURKS VIDEO, THE TRUMP CAVALRY WILL BE HERE ANY SECOND NOW
Ali Nourani They're already here
"Too say he didn't do anything right is crazy talk."... Talk to your boy Jimmy Dore...
Still blames voters for not "showing up." You have to give them a reason to show up, not expect them to.
I think Obama was a fine leader and did the best he could
I guarantee that you will NEVER see Trump admit his mistakes and shortcomings. Obama will go down as one of the classiest presidents
amazing
Am I the only one that gets beyond annoyed everytime Anna looks over for approval and say "right?" EVERYTIME she makes a point?
I don't suppose Obama was expected to do all the work? ... I mean... were was DWS? ... in the 5th column?
This is so true
-_-
and Hillary will never admit that she ever had anything to do with HER lost
In trying to be "fair and balanced" Cenk tries to bash Obama on bullshit lmao
Andy Sawyer lol right. It's so obvious it makes me cringe. That shit is so disingenuous and what they complain about with the mainstream media. Doing stuff to appease the viewpoints of their watchers. They're going to come out in full force and dislike your videos anyway TYT
It's an old Chinese insight: the only real task of a king is to employ the right people.
Everyone's taking blame except the person who's actually responsible. I now have a new found disrespect for Hillary Clinton
Sad but True.
loved the Pulp Fiction reference.
Even with all his failures, I still respect Obama as Presidemt
Manufacturing is needed anywhere you want prosperity.
He didn't take the blame. He said that he was in a bubble and he didn't really see Trump coming. He said he takes re... 'some' responsibility. Notice how he cut himself off and inserted the word "some"
Cenk is back, yeah!
Ana's been listening to Jimmy Dore.
Sad but true.
I don't think it was his fault. I feel some people wanted something different
I wish Jimmy Dore was there, for this one. LOL
here is the few issues I don't like about Obama, that unlike most politician he hardly take credit for what he has done, but loves to take a blame. I don't get that.
I'm not sure whether or not I agree with that behavior of his, but the fact is that remaining problems are worth focusing on, and accomplishments are over and done with, you know? You NEED to focus on remaining problems.
heroinhero69 You seem to know a lot about cucks. Personal experience?
he should have screamed out "AT THE GROUND LEVEL!"
I had to look.
Should have back Bernie.
1. "Gerrymandering"
2. "Voter Suppression"
3. Pelosi
4. Abysmal Accomplishment Addressed
I AM NOT INTO CONSPIRACIES BUT WAS THIS A GREEN SCREEN, WHERE IS HIS FOOT???????????
That's a decent mea culpa, and it is an incompetence check to whomever ran the Democratic strategy.
I can't blame Obama for Democrats congressional loses. The weak Democrats were running from Obama in the midterms and they all lost. Anyone remember Alison Lundergan Grimes? Yeah me neither, bcuz she lost to Mitch Turtle McDonald. Obama couldn't help her.
it's just duking amazing that that Hillary and trump got to run on the first place absolutely shows the segregation of our government standard
l
No no no Ana, say it right! George Snufflufagus!
Not saying enough about the importance of money at the lower levels. Not even big money. State-level and lower politicians are cheap to bribe, and the elections can be adjusted with relatively small amounts of money for ads.
The redistricting and other games are important. One interesting wrinkle of wasting opposition votes is that concentrating the Democratic votes in sacrificial districts not only wastes the excess votes, but it also concentrates the ground-game enthusiasm exactly where it isn't needed.
If insurance companies competed, they would stand to make more profits by extending the affordability to everyone. If the government would regulate these industries that would benefit everyone. The people with better overall health, the companies earn more profits, and the government with more tax revenue.
Obama is not only a Democratic leader, but he is a president for republican too. When he is the president, he has to be a president for all parties.
This will be the last time in the next 4 years a president ever accepts responsibility for anything.
Well at least he accomplished more than William Henry Harrison - the 9th president of the United States.
It would be nice if he showed this level of honesty back when it actually mattered.
So basically Obama was a Sachin Tendulkar #CricketRefs
but I thought it was Russia.
Why is it Obama"s fault? Hillary should take the blame
today is Jan 20 and I will miss Barack and Michelle Obama so very much!
Yet Hilary still takes no blame.
It's funny how they say "we don't need another CNN" and then report on EVERY SINGLE TRUMP TWEET!
When he said he could not lead the DNC, I took that as a dig at Debbie Wasserman-Schultz.
"Systematic outreach" is irrelevant when your candidates suck.
Cenk was on point on this one. no biased opinions, jst FACTS
All I've got to say, Cenk, is that change happens. And it will keep happening. This is all temporary. Like everything.
So, Obama takes the blame, and Trump acts like a nine year old to meryl streep.
The affordable care act sucks.
Obama, you're a class act. You will be missed.
Cheers.
He should have said "Yes, I'm to blame because I let a lot of people down in a time of economic crisis, breaking promises that ended up making people lose faith in the democratic party for two terms."
Obama looks really really tired.
would you say it was a land slide?
How about the person who ran against Trump take responsibility rather than spreading the blame far & wide.
We need to tear and Bern the G.O.P & D.N.C and rebuild a stronger kinder smarter America.
Really I love TYT, I am a wolf pac volunteer but really this was weird
OMG the auto fix fucked my comment lol
he needed to make the real changes that would have made american economy rebound faster and grow beyond the early 2000's level.
Hahaa. He hit the excuses hard.
For all he has done (equality for the LGBT community, healthcare for those who couldn't afford it, took down bin Ladin, saved us from another depression, ect. Even all while facing roadblock after roadblock.) you are criticizing him for not keeping the dems together?
He seemed to admit it was his fault and then absolve himself from blame at the same time by claiming he was "too busy". If you really think that the Democratic party needs to be rebuilt, then why are you supporting Tom Perez? Why did you pick DWS in the first place? Why weren`t you backing Bernie Sanders? Obama is all talk, as usual. He`s not taking even the most minor steps to support rebuilding the Democratic Party.
He did Romney Care.
He's going to be like Jimmy Carter and do great things once he's out of office. I hope he lives a long time and stays married to Michelle.
didn't think cenks neck could get thicker,it did
The Yung Turks the Complex magazine of world news
Obama, you'd da best! What a guy, he doesn't play that dumb political blame game when he knows that by taking blame the whole country can move on.
why are people praising him for taking responsibility when he should have actually done something when he had the chance. Stop letting him get away with shit and punish him for it.
Progressivism has destroyed the party beyond repair.
Translation: I'm going to be out of office in a couple of weeks i'll deflect the blame away from Clinton and the DNC.
Underneath the sky where the cold winds cross
Theres an ocean where data flows
America Ruined itself the second it became about Politics, Humans are not naturally stupid, and yet we put ourselves and our children on such a path that eradicates our own humanity, and its pitiful and weak
Now imagine Trump taking responsibility for his mistakes. You can't? Me neither.
Can Ana get through one episode without getting triggered? She's so unprofessional
