Barack Obama’s half-brother rips ‘cold and ruthless’ ex-president

[GhostofDempsey]

A “cold and ruthless” President Obama abandoned his Kenyan family in their greatest hours of need, according to a new tell-all by estranged half brother Malik Obama.

“He got rich and became a snob,” Malik, 62, told The Post via Skype from his home in the Kenyan village of Nyang’oma Kogelo. “What I saw was he was the kind of person that wants people to worship him. He needs to be worshiped and I don’t do that. I am his older brother so I don’t do that.”

The book, “Big Bad Brother From Kenya,” a self-published memoir which Malik Obama spent 22 years writing, hit Amazon with little fanfare on July 11. In its 435 pages, Malik covers the long and gradual falling out between him and the former President, which culminated in Malik publicly endorsing Donald Trump for president in 2016.

Both Malik and Barack Obama share the same father, Barack Hussein Obama Sr., a Kenyan economist who died in a car accident in 1982. Malik first met his half brother in 1985 when Barack was a 24-year-old Chicago community organizer, and they enjoyed warm relations for more than a decade. Malik spent years working in the United States, where he has dual citizenship, and frequently traveled between the US and his homeland. Malik was the best man at Barack Obama’s wedding in 1992. When Barack became president, Malik was a regular visitor to the Oval Office.

Today Malik works full time at a foundation named after their father. He hangs on to a trove of old photos showing him and a carefree Barack spending time together in Kenya. Many are included in the book.

The first fissures appeared shortly after Barack was elected to the White House, and Malik told him of his plans to set up the foundation.

“We had a big fight on the phone because he was not in support and insisted I shut down the website and not continue with the foundation. He had his reasons but I was not having any of it,” Malik writes, describing a stormy call shortly before the 2009 inauguration. “We talked late into the night that night. He threatened to ‘cut me off’ if I continued with the idea.”

Hard to buy this. My sister hates me because I've done well and she hasn't.

People like to hate on those that are successful when they've taken a wrong turn themselves.

Too bad the media didn’t take that same approach when Trump’s niece wrote a book about him.

You could be forgiven for thinking that was a picture of a lesbian with some black guy.

A lot of what he is saying about Obama is true though. He is an arrogant narcissist who insists people worship and bow down to him. I can believe that he insisted his brother shut down his foundation and threaten to cut him off.

I tought the chapter when Obama travelled to kenya and went out camping with his brother and then was molested by wild dogs was real weird. Also i read between the lines that this was how he concluded that marriage was not only possible between man and woman.

Dude won't even help his impoverished blood kin, but he's touted as one of those selfless humanitarians who cares so much for all of us and who going to cure homelessness and poverty out of the goodness of his heart.

The press ought to be ashamed of themselves.
