From Fox News: “The View” co-host Ana Navarro called Friday on former President Barack Obama to publicly condemn President Donald Trump, saying we are living in “an American nightmare” in his second term and it was his duty to take a stand.
After Sunny Hostin and Sara Haines largely defended Obama’s right to stay out of the limelight after recent media discussions about his role in the Democratic Party, Navarro pushed for Obama and other past presidents to use their platforms to fight against the Trump administration.
“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,” she said.
Navarro referenced the “No Kings” protests across the nation last weekend where an estimated 5 million people took to the streets to protest the president and his agenda, as Trump held a military parade in Washington, D.C., to mark the Army’s 250th birthday.
Navarro declared that she was glad Obama was happy and enjoying his life, but claimed he had an obligation to speak out against Trump for “endangering” the country.
“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.”
“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 ranted.
