The former president has finally snapped. The stress of the election was too much to overcome.
And Barack Obama goes on a shocking rage-filled rant during fundraiser for Biden.
Former Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton joined President Joe Biden for a major fundraising event at Radio City Music Hall in New York City last Thursday.
The event featured various celebrities and a panel with all three of the Democrat presidents was moderated by talk-show host Stephen Colbert.
This was an effort to try and help provide Biden with some momentum as he is currently trailing former President Donald Trump in multiple national polls.
While the event took place, Trump was in New York City as well but for the wake of fallen NYPD Officer Jonathan Diller, who’s life was taken by a career criminal during a routine traffic stop.
Biden was criticized for attending a fundraiser filled with stars and former presidents while Trump attended a funeral for brave first responder.
But the fundraiser wasn’t as lavish as one would expect thanks to these unruly attendees.
According to the New York Post, the event was interrupted six times thanks to pro-Palestinian protestors.
One protestor blew a whistle while holding a “war pig” sign. Another shouted “Shame on you Joe Biden.” And several others yelled, “Blood on your hands.”
Outside of the event, the hecklers used more vulgar language as they chanted, “F*ck Joe Biden!” and “Genocide Joe has got to go!”
Eventually, Obama had enough of the interruptions during the panel and lashed out at them.
“You can’t just talk, you have to listen,” the former president said according to a reporter from Reuters.

The fundraising event seemed to go on just fine besides that.
It was estimated that it would likely bring in $25 million for the Biden campaign.
Biden himself referred to it as a “grassroots fundraiser.”
That comment seems odd considering one of the hosts for the event, Mindy Kaling, an actress, said “It is such an honor to be in this room with so many rich people.”
It’s hard to imagine a “grassroots fundraiser” being attended by celebrities, former presidents, and other wealthy donors who are willing to bankroll the Joe Biden campaign.
But we never said the Left isn’t out of touch.
