Former President Barack Obama is getting dragged online after using “Star Wars Day” to showcase his ghastly presidential center with woke actor Mark Hamill aka “Luke Skywalker” joining him.
As TGP readers may know, fans of the space saga use May 4 every year to celebrate the creation of the franchise and their favorite characters.
“Star Wars Day” has also become a popular cultural event with sports teams, politicians, and the International Space Station participating.
Obama, though, used the moment to provide an update on the center. But he forced viewers to endure an incredibly cringeworthy and lie-filled exchange with Hamill first.
In the video, Obama is seen bragging about himself while pretending he’s speaking about ordinary people. Then, he has the audacity to claim that his presidential center is absolutely not for his legacy, “but a gateway to yours.”
“The Obama Presidential Center is much more than a museum,” he adds. “It is an entire campus built to empower you.”
Hamill acts like an idiot throughout and provides even more cringeworthy dialogue.
WATCH:
May the Fourth be with YOU, from the Obama Presidential Center.

OBAMA: Happy Star Wars Day from the Obama Presidential Center.
HAMILL: I have a very good feeling about this.
OBAMA: Mark, I am glad you are here, I want to tell you about someone…A young person born into ordinary circumstances, but restless…A kid with big dreams, a bit of a rebel.
HAMILL: I like where this is going.
OBAMA: They join a scrappy group of underdogs and set out to change things.
HAMILL: By blowing up a giant space laser?!
OBAMA: Mark, this isn’t about you…This is about them (pointing to the camera)
This isn’t a monument to my legacy, this is a gateway to yours.
The Obama Presidential Center is much more than a museum. It is an entire campus built to empower you.
A place to come together, get inspired, and become a force…For change. See what I did there.
HAMILL: Strong, the dad jokes are.
OBAMA: That’s perfect!
The video reveals toward the end that tickets to visit the presidential center go on sale on May 6. It is scheduled to open on June 19.
X users completely roasted Obama and Hamill in the comments. Many also noted how similar the building is to The Death Star.
Looks like a giant trash can.

That is one ugly f*cking building!

So…people have to buy very expensive tickets to an ugly albatross masturbatory “center” in a neighborhood that Barry has not visited in years?
Also, this is Mark Hamill’s first paying gig in decades?
