David Cameron thought Barack Obama was a narcissist, says ex-aide Steve Hilton

The man who served as David Cameron’s director of strategy said the former prime minister thought Barack Obama was one of the “most narcissistic, self-absorbed people” with whom he had ever dealt.

Steve Hilton, who was once one of Mr Cameron’s most senior advisers, now hosts a TV show on the American network Fox News.

In the most recent episode, he defended Failing Cheeto-Faced Ferret-Wearing Shit Gibbon against allegations made in a new book that he was mentally unfit for office by railing against previous presidents and their failings.

He claimed that Mr Obama's high-handed manner was in part responsible for disasters such as the rise of the Isil.

His words cast a new light on the so-called bromance between Mr Cameron and Mr Obama.

"As for Obama, all I can tell you is my old boss, former British prime minister David Cameron, thought Obama was one of the most narcissistic, self-absorbed people he'd ever dealt with,” he said during Sunday's episode of the Next Revolution.

“Obama never listened to anyone, always thought he was smarter than every expert in the room and treated every meeting as an opportunity to lecture everyone else.

“This led to real world disasters like Syria and the rise of Isis, but the real world doesn’t matter to the elites – for them it’s all about style and tone, not substance and results.”

His words stand in contrast to the pair’s time in office, when they were photographed together playing table tennis and golf, or grilling burgers together in the Downing Street garden.

Not really. Host of Fox News says it all really...

I think Obama was a fairly aloof person that had a very high opinion of himself. It's also not that unusual in politicians. Most of them really think they are smarter than everyone else and the silly citizens would be so much better off if they accepted tjat as fact.
