Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick delivered a devastating takedown of Barack Obama's failed economic policies, revealing how the former president systematically destroyed America's working class by forcing everyone into worthless liberal arts degrees instead of honoring the trades that built this great nation.
Speaking on "The Alex Marlow Show" Saturday, Lutnick didn't mince words about Obama's assault on American workers: "What it did was it broke people's spirit. Because when I grew up, I had shop class, and there were kids who liked working with their hands."
But Obama and his elitist cronies had other plans. They convinced an entire generation that the only path to success was through overpriced college degrees in gender studies and critical race theory, leaving millions of Americans drowning in student debt with unmarketable skills.
"We told everyone they had to go to college, specifically liberal arts colleges, and we broke the American spirit," Lutnick explained, exposing the deliberate destruction of America's manufacturing backbone.
This is exactly why President Trump won decisively in 2024 - because working Americans were sick and tired of being looked down upon by coastal elites who think a philosophy degree is more valuable than the skilled tradesmen who keep our lights on and our buildings standing.
The Obama Disaster Legacy
Under Obama's watch, shop classes disappeared from schools while administrators pushed every kid toward four-year universities that would saddle them with crushing debt. Meanwhile, good-paying jobs in manufacturing, construction, and skilled trades went begging for workers.
Now, under President Trump's second term, Lutnick and the administration are working to restore dignity to American workers and rebuild the manufacturing sector that Obama tried to destroy. The contrast couldn't be clearer - Trump builds up American workers while Obama tore them down.
Patriots, this is why elections matter. When you have leaders who actually respect the working men and women who built this country, instead of trying to turn everyone into indoctrinated college graduates, America wins. How long will it take to fully repair the damage Obama inflicted on our workforce?
