‘Trump Exists As A F*ck You’: Fmr Obama Advisors Admit ‘Huge Swath’ Of Culture Backs Him

Former Obama advisers Tommy Vietor and Jon Lovett admitted Tuesday on their podcast that a large portion of the culture seems to appreciate President-elect Donald Trump’s style, stating that the Democratic Party needs to “figure out” how to bring “fun” into their politics.

Since Trump won both the Electoral College and the popular vote against Vice President Kamala Harris, Democrats have been trying to understand why Harris’s message to voters failed. On “Pod Save America,” Vietor highlighted Trump’s first appearance since his win at Madison Square Garden for the UFC 309 fight and later being seen on his jet eating McDonald’s with a handful of his Cabinet picks.

“Guys, at some point we all just need to realize that sitting ringside at a fight and then flying home on a PJ while crushing McDonald’s with the boys. That seems like a good-ass time to most people in this country. I think that’s what it’s about,” Vietor said.

“I was watching football yesterday and then like you’ve all these players celebrating doing the Trump dance. John Jones, who UFC fighter, who won the fight that night — the fight Trump was at. He came over and kind of kissed the ring with Trump. These guys all like him. They think he’s cool. There’s a huge swath of the culture that is just into Trump,” Vietor added. “I mean, it’s a brand of politics that breeds — combines — the professional and the personal in a way that has to be pretty powerful.”

Lovett later joined in stating how those mimicking Trump’s iconic YMCA dance are sending a “fuck you” to everybody who hates the former president.
