Obama fantasized about gay sex, ‘fictionalized’ his life story, biographer says in explosive interview

‘He’s not normal – as in not a normal politician or a normal human being,’ David Garrow says of the 44th President of the United States.
(LifeSiteNews) — Former President Barack Obama is celebrity-obsessed, more similar in personality to his successor Donald Trump than many would care to admit, and used to “repeatedly fantasize” about having sex with other men, says biographer David Garrow among a litany of bombshell claims in a new interview.
On August 2, Tablet Magazine published an extensive interview with Garrow, a Pulitzer-winning biographer whose subjects have included Obama and Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.
The piece opens with a summary of Obama’s version of his breakup with college girlfriend Sheila Miyoshi Jager (now an Oberlin College professor), which in his 1995 memoir Dreams from My Father Obama says stemmed from a disagreement after attending a play by black playwright August Wilson (although in Dreams, Jager is not identified but rather combined with other ex-girlfriends into a composite character). In the book, Obama presents his girlfriend as insufficiently sensitive to the black experience.
Garrow, who interviewed Jager for his 2017 book Rising Star: The Making of Barack Obama, relays that according to her, the breakup actually followed an exhibit at Chicago’s Spertus Institute on the trial of Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann.
“In Jager’s recollection, what set off the quarrel that precipitated the end of the couple’s relationship was Obama’s stubborn refusal, after seeing the exhibit, and in the swirl of this Cokely affair, to condemn Black racism” of the type perpetuate by extremists such as Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, he says. “[W]hat upset her that day was Obama’s inability to condemn [black Chicago mayoral aide Steve] Cokely’s comments [accusing doctors of intentionally infecting black babies with AIDS]. It was not Obama’s Blackness that bothered her, but that he would not condemn antisemitism.”
