David Cameron thought Obama was one of the most - "narcissistic, self absorbed" Posted: Jan 9th, 2018 - 4:10 am
people he had ever dealt with, his former strategy guru has claimed.
While in office the two leaders had a cosy bromance and were pictured high-fiving and playing rounds of golf and ping pong together.
But Steve Hilton tore into Mr Obama for thinking he was 'smarter' than everyone else in the room.
And he claimed that his old boss Mr Cameron would get wound up by the ex President's self absorption.
Hilton, who was Mr Cameron's adviser when he entered Downing Street but later parted way with him and moved to Silicon Valley where his wife, Rachel Whetstone was working first for Google, then Uber, and now Facebook as a communications executive.
Hilton is also hosting a Fox News show on Sundays called The Next Revolution and used it to jump into the aftermath of the publication of the explosive book Fire and Fury, on Donald Trump's time in the White House.
The former Downing Street adviser was highly critical of Mr Obama and said: '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.
'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 claims were immediately slapped down by a spokesman for the former Prime Minister who said they do not reflect his views.
Mr Hilton made the shocking claim as he railed against 'elitists' for criticising Donald Trump and claiming he is unfit to hold office.
