Radio host Charlamagne Tha God argued that former President Obama’s viral critique of his fellow Democrats is old news and that their base has been saying for a decade.

As the Democratic Party continues to struggle to chart a new course forward, the 44th president offered a tough love message to the members of his party at a fundraiser on Friday on how to find their way out of the political wilderness. 

“I think it’s going to require a little bit less navel-gazing and a little less whining and being in fetal positions,” Obama said during the private event in New Jersey. “And it’s going to require Democrats to just toughen up.”

“It’s mind-boggling to me when I hear people like President Obama say things that regular everyday people [have] been saying for years,” the radio host said on his “Breakfast Club” radio show. “We’ve been saying Democrats were cowards for a decade. We’ve been saying Democrats need to toughen up. And that cowardice is, you know, why we’re in the position that we’re in now.”

He added that he could provide “countless examples” of Democratic leaders needing to show some backbone.

“Like, for example, they should have told Biden that he was going to be a one-term president, it wasn’t up to him,” Charlamagne said. “So, it’s just wild to hear President Obama say that now, as if Democrats haven’t been cowards for the past decade.”

One of his co-hosts balked at Charlamagne, causing him to double down.

“That’s President Obama’s opinion, too!” he argued.

When asked what “toughen up” means in the realm of politics, the radio host offered more examples.

“’Toughen up’ looks like, ‘Hey Biden, you’re going to be a one-term president.’ ‘Toughen up’ looks like, ‘Hey, [Ruth Bader Ginsburg], you’re going to step down ‘cuz you’re too old.’ Like, that’s what toughening up looks like,” Charlamagne said.

“Toughen up looks like, ‘Hey, if Donald Trump is the existential threat that y’all tell us he is, how come y’all aren’t going after him that way while y’all are in office?” he added. “That’s what toughening up looks like.”
