Obamas lecture America on decency as the Democrats lie

 Not only do Democrats fashion themselves the protectors of “democracy,” they claim to be champions of decency.

When it was former president Obama’s turn, he lamented the ugliness of modern American politics before mocking Trump’s “weird obsession with crowd sizes” by gesturing with hands to signify a small length.

Follow along with The Post’s live reporting of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.

More than once, for instance, Democrats falsely claimed that Trump had referred to the Tiki Torch Nazis of Charlottesville as “very fine people.” Democrats also falsely accused the former president of instructing Americans to “inject bleach” during the COVID pandemic.

Chuck Schumer, who’s painstakingly ignored the ugly and often violent Jew-hatred that’s infected his party, accused Trump of peddling anti-Semitism.

Well, if the second day of the Democratic National Convention is any indication, the left doesn’t have any claim on the high moral ground.

As George Will once wrote, Obama is “a pyromaniac in a field of straw men.” But perhaps the most confusing aspect of the night was Obama’s call for a return to decency.
