Shrew from ‘The View’ begs Barack Obama to step up attacks on Trump

Ana Navarro desperately wants former President Barack Obama to step back into the political arena to battle President Donald Trump.

Aside from the 2024 election when the Democratic Party was pulling out all the stops to defeat Trump, the Obamas have largely stayed out of politics since leaving the White House. But if Navarro had her way, the former president would become the face of obstructing Trump’s agenda for the rest of his second term.

“In normal times, former presidents would remain quiet and not criticize or attack the current president, particularly in year one when it was the honeymoon period. Well, this isn’t the honeymoon period. It’s a nightmare. It’s an American nightmare. These are not normal times,” the co-host of ‘The View‘ said.

“The American people are taking it upon themselves. They’re not waiting for a leader,” she said, referencing the ‘No Kings’ protests that occurred over the military parade to celebrate the Army’s 205th birthday. “They’re not waiting for a great White knight or a Black knight or Latino knight to drive them out of the forest into the wilderness. They’re doing it upon themselves.”

While she said she understood and loved that the Obamas are “happy” remaining out of the political spotlight, Navarro insists that the former president has an obligation to speak out against the Trump administration and its policies.

“America is in danger. Our democratic values are in danger. I think if you feel that way, each and every one of us has to do everything we absolutely can,” she said. “Some of us have a bigger voice. Some of us have a smaller voice.”
