Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign has deployed former President Barack Hussein Obama to woo voters back into the Democrats’ camp.

Whether or not the strategy will work remains to be seen, especially in light of Obama’s wooing strategy: Lecturing the American people.

For example, speaking at a campaign event in Pennsylvania on Thursday, Obama lectured black men about why they MUST vote for Harris.

Listen to SOME of what he said below:

“We have yet to see the same kinds of energy and turnout in all corners of our neighborhoods and communities as we saw when I was running,” he said at one point. “I also want to say that that seems to be more pronounced with the brothers.”

“Part of it makes me think that, well, you just aren’t feeling the idea of having a woman as president, and you’re coming up with other alternatives and reasons for that. I’ve got a problem with that,” he added.

“And now, you’re thinking about sitting out or supporting somebody who has a history of denigrating you, because you think that’s a sign of strength because that’s what being a man is? Putting women down? That’s not acceptable,” he continued.

His lecture did not appear to resonate with black male voters.

Speaking at the same event, Obama also sought to take credit for the economic boom seen under his successor, former President Donald Trump.

“The reason some people think, ‘I remember that economy when he first came in being pretty good’ – yeah, it was pretty good because it was my economy!” he said. “We had had 75 straight months of job growth that I handed over to him! It wasn’t something he did!”

“I had spent eight years cleaning up the mess that the Republicans had left me the last time. So just in case everyone has a hazy memory, he didn’t do nothing! Except those big tax cuts. His other big economic plan now is to slap tariffs on everything, from food to TVs,” he added.

Critics were once more left unimpressed.

“GDP growth in Obama’s last year in office was 1.6%,” RealClearInvestigations writer Mark Hemingway tweeted. “Trump did not inherit a good economy. This is delusional.”

“In fact, the Obama economy was *notoriously* sluggish and a big reason why Trump won election the first time,” his wife, The Federalist Editor-in-Chief Mollie Hemingway, added.

Over on Fox News meanwhile, host Jesse Watters mocked Harris for deploying BOTH Obama and former President Bill Clinton to try to woo back the voters she’s alienated.

“This is a softer, gentler coup,” he began on Fox News’ “Jesse Watters Primetime.” “She’s still the nominee, but Obama and Bubba are going to be taking charge.”

“They’re letting Bill Clinton loose. The comeback kid is hitting the campaign trail for Harris. And the messiah. Barack’s in Pittsburgh, and the media’s orgasmic. Barack is here to mansplain Harris to the country,” he added.
