BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) — President Barack Obama is unleashing frustration over Washington gridlock and acknowledging he has not been able to bring the change he campaigned on.
Obama told donors at a Democratic fundraiser hosted by filmmaker Tyler Perry Thursday evening that he has struggled “mightily” against division in politics. But he says the system “still is broken.”
Obama was speaking on the day of the arrest of a white man accused of shooting dead nine at a black church in South Carolina. He decried inaction over gun control, poverty, stagnant incomes, criminal justice reform and equal opportunity.
He says he is frustrated “because Congress doesn’t work the way it should.”
