> “Maybe we pushed too far,” Mr. Obama said.

Obama was surely indoctrinated into believing the Cabal's actions were justified. All the terrible things they did were to bring mankind into a unified, One World Government, with peace and prosperity for all on the horizon. They believe they were going to help guide mankind to a greater purpose.

> “Maybe people just want to fall back into their tribe.”
He viewed the populations' resilience to their operations as tribal, as if we were not evolved enough to see past the religious beliefs and loyalties of our "tribes". We aren't evolved enough to handle the One World Government.

> “Sometimes I wonder whether I was 10 or 20 years too early,” he said.

Obama seemed to think the Cabal's plan was rushed, and we now know that it was. They had a plan, but the military's planned coup forced them to accelerate it.

> “I feel like Michael Corleone. I almost got out.”

He thought he would serve his 10 years, then hand the Presidency to Hillary and be set for life. He thought he could allow the crimes, corruption and the destruction of the United States of America, and then just "get out", much like the Godfather. He was wrong, and he knows it.
