Wayne Allyn Root has long had a bizarre hatred of Barack Obama, and that continued in his March 1 WorldNetDaily column, headlined “All roads lead to Obama: He must be prosecuted”:
All roads lead to Barack Obama. He is the shot caller. He is the communist traitor behind everything bad that has happened to America, the U.S. economy and President Donald Trump.
I believe it all started at Columbia University.
Yes, I have a history with Obama. We were college classmates at Columbia University. We were both pre-law and political science majors. We both graduated on the same day in 1983. We both went into politics eventually.
That’s where the similarities ended.
I’m a conservative warrior and capitalist evangelist. I made millions of dollars as a risk-taking entrepreneur in the business world. He became a “community organizer” (i.e., a communist traitor).
I’m pro-business. I believe in economic and personal freedom, free speech, limited government, low taxes and very little regulation.
Obama hates business. He believes in socialism, massive taxes and government regulation, the green energy scam, open borders and the weaponization of government against free speech.
Trust me, the root (excuse the pun) of everything bad that has happened to America is called “the Obama problem.” And the secrets to how it started are all found at Columbia University.
Root then rehashed bogus conspiracy theories about Obama:
First, how did Obama get into Columbia? In those days, there were virtually no college transfers accepted at Columbia. Only the No. 1 student at Harvard might have had a shot. Maybe. But Obama was a lousy student coming from a mediocre college (Occidental). So, how did he transfer into Ivy League Columbia in 1981? It was literally impossible.
I’ve always believed the only way Obama could have been admitted to Columbia was as a “foreign exchange student.” Columbia loved letting in students from exotic countries like Indonesia (where Obama grew up). It was a fast-track way to gain acceptance into Columbia.
Which is fine. Except for the fact that if Obama claimed Indonesian citizenship to get into Columbia, then he was never qualified to serve as president of the United States.
Secondly, how did he graduate when he was never there? We were in all the same classes as pre-law and political science majors – yet I never saw him once. Neither did any classmate I’ve ever spoken to. Neither did any professor I’ve ever spoken to. Obama was literally “the Ghost of Columbia.”
I’ve always believed he was either a CIA plant who was given a Columbia degree without ever stepping foot on campus, or he spent his two years at Columbia’s sister school in Moscow studying Communism 101.
Either way, he’s a fraud and “Manchurian Candidate.”
In fact, Obama’s college years have been documented, people who aren’t Root remember him there, there’s no evidence Obama ever claimed to be a foreign student, and Root offered no proof that Columbia even had a “sister school in the old Soviet Union,” let alone that Obama ever went there for the goal of “studying Communism 101.”
Root then went Godwin in order to claim being a victim of Obama:
Obama began and sharpened his obsession with weaponization by ordering the IRS to destroy his political opposition. Before he targeted Trump, he targeted yours truly.
I was at the top of Obama’s “Enemies List” for the “crime” of being a regular guest on Fox News and not only exposing Obama for the communist traitor he was (and still is) but also for daring to expose his scams at Columbia.
Obama sent the IRS to destroy me from 2010 to 2013. I was attacked day and night by Obama’s version of the Gestapo/Soviet KGB. Like Trump, I survived, but lost tremendous amounts of money and time, and endured tremendous stress and anguish.
Actually, Root’s tax return contained the type of creative accounting — i.e., declaring 88 percent of his income nontaxable in 2007, filing a Schedule C return — that tends to draw scrutiny by the IRS.
Root concluded his column by raging:
My advice to President Trump, FBI Director Kash Patel and Attorney General Pam Bondi:
First, all roads lead to Obama. He is the man behind the spying on Trump, the “Russian collusion” scam, the green energy scam, the intentional destruction of America with open borders, and the persecution of Trump. It all starts and ends with Obama. He called all the shots. Investigate and prosecute Obama.
Second, the secrets that launched this evil communist “Manchurian Candidate” all started at Columbia University. Go back to Columbia. Demand to see Obama’s files. Demand to see how he admitted to Columbia. Demand to see his attendance records. This scam will all start to unravel.
All roads lead to Obama.
Root continued to obsess over Obama in his May 31 column, which began by repeating a dubious claim by the late Columbia professor Henry Graff, who claimed to have “taught every significant politician that ever attended Columbia” but couldn’t recall ever teaching Obama. Root then moved on to demanding that President Trump investigate Obama:
President Trump controls the DOJ, FBI, CIA, NSA and all the security and investigative agencies of the United States of America.
What a perfect time to order investigations of Obama and all the Obama scandals that I believe hold the keys to the attempt by the enemies of America to destroy our great country.
In the middle of all these scandals we always find Obama.
First, Mr. President, it’s time to hire a special counsel to investigate the Biden presidency. When did everyone around him know Biden had dementia? When did they know he had cancer? Why was none of this disclosed to the American people?
And tied to all of that is the Biden autopen scandal. Who signed all those bills, and executive orders, and pardons? And who made all the decisions and gave all the orders for four years of the failed Biden presidency?
I’m betting the answer is Obama.
Obama called the shots. Obama gave the orders. Obama ran the government.
Biden’s presidency was the third term of Obama.
After yet again repeating numerous discredited Obama conspiracy theories, Root huffed that Obma should be imprisoned:
Obama belongs in prison, President Trump.
For what he did to you. For what he did to me. For what he did to Biden. For what he did to America.
It’s up to you, President Trump.
I know one thing for sure – all the lies, fraud, scandal and conspiracy began at Columbia, Class of 1983 with my classmate who was never there, Barack Obama.
Root just can’t stop obsessing — and lying — about Obama.
