Obama Paid Neo-Nazis Millions Of Taxpayer Dollars, But Nobody Is…

Former President Barack Obama’s tweet following the violence and unrest in Charlottesville, Virginia, became one of the most shared of all time, but many were quick to criticize him as hypocritical due to alleged ties to neo-Nazis.

Nick Pacilio of Twitter Communications said Obama’s tweet was one of the top five most re-tweeted in the site’s history — with the tweet coming after President Donald Trump’s highly criticized response to the violence in Charlottesville.

Trump initially said that there was violence on “many sides” and didn’t immediately disavow the white supremacists and neo-Nazis. He later disavowed them, but ultimately backtracked and placed blame on several sides.

“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin or his background or his religion,” Obama tweeted.

“People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.”

The tweet was a direct quote from Nelson Mandela’s autobiography.

Following the tweet, many people argued that Obama was being hypocritical due to his association with an alleged neo-Nazi group in the Ukraine called the Svoboda Party — led by Oleh Tyahnybok, who had previously been pictured with Joe Biden and John McCain.

“Republicans best wake up and stand up to support the agenda Trump was elected to accomplish . Media is out of control. Trying to start a new civil war,” one Mad World News reader commented on the site’s Facebook page.

“Funny, Ben Carson, head of housing and urban development just discovered five billion dollars missing while going over the books a couple of weeks ago ! And that’s just the tip of the iceburg when it comes to the trillions that disappeared during Obama’s eight years,” another wrote.

Others criticized the mainstream media for not reporting on Obama’s alleged ties to neo-Nazis.

“I guess I have become fickle. I have become like many people who treat news like music, these days. When they like the tune, they turn it up. When they don’t like the tune, they turn it off. I used to be a strong FOX viewer. When they decided to become like all the rest…. I have turned them OFF” one reader commented.

“The left doesn’t even know what their President did and continues to do. Giving money to overthrow a government, this is treason and because it is Obama they don’t do anything about it. Disgusting!!!!!” another added.
