LOL - Obama can even alienate his own political party. That's freaking hilarious.

WASHINGTON -- Democrats are not happy about President Barack Obama's accusation that they are being "dishonest" about his trade agenda.
Last week, Obama told reporters that Democrats, including Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), who have called his controversial Trans-Pacific Partnership a "secret" agreement were not telling the truth, since much of the negotiation text is available to members of Congress. It was an unusually aggressive jab from the president, who rarely resorts to such rhetoric against Republicans, let alone members of his own party. Obama also accused his Democratic critics of spreading "misinformation that stirs up the base but ultimately doesn't serve them."
Warren and Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio) responded by pointing out that the pact remains classified, making it a crime for lawmakers to share its details with the public. In interviews with The Huffington Post this week, several other Democrats cried foul on Obama's attacks.
