In the countdown to the midterm elections, Obama made a rare public attack on Trump. Trump retaliated strongly and escalated the confrontation. Firing took place from a distance between the two sides, making the election fight more intense.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the United Statesmidterm elections Entering the final countdown, former PresidentObama Rare meeting with the President on 24thtrump Launched a fierce attack, not only blaming Trump’s high oil prices for starting a war against Iran, but also mocking Trump for decorating the White House “like former Iraqi President Hussein opening a Cheesecake Factory restaurant.” Trump quickly hit back, condemning Obama as a bad president and even accusing him of campaigning for “Muslim Brotherhood jihadists.” The two people clashed far and wide, making the midterm elections even more explosive.
Obama appeared at a campaign event in Ohio on the 24th to support Democratic gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton and US Senate candidate Sherrod Brown. The two are currently deadlocked in the election, with Brown facing Republican incumbent Senator Jon Husted, who is more likely to sway control of the Senate.
In his nearly 40-minute speech, Obama pointed the finger at Trump for rising oil prices and criticized his decision to go to war with Iran over rising oil prices.
Obama also mocked Trump’s enthusiasm for renovating the White House, promoting the construction of a new banquet hall, and even redecorating the interior space. He said, “There’s gold decorations everywhere. What’s all this gold for? They’ve made the White House look like former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory restaurant.” Hussein is a dictator famous for his luxurious palaces, and the Cheesecake Factory is an American restaurant chain known for its intricate and lavish decorations.
Obama accused Trump of focusing on making profits for himself and his family. “Apart from renovating the house, he is particularly concerned about one thing, and that is how to make himself, his family, and his companions rich.”
The Wall Street Journal reported that in the past, Obama has mostly maintained restraint against Trump in power, but now he rarely offers sharp criticism, reiterating the Democratic Party’s hawkish stances on cost of living, Iran war and corruption controversies in the final stages of the midterm elections.
Facing criticism from Obama and former President Clinton, Trump responded on the 24th: “They criticize because we defeated them.” He even said frankly: “Obama is a bad president. Clinton is not bad, but she is involved in many scandals.”
Trump later posted a message on his Real Social Group, criticizing Obama as “grossly incompetent” and accusing him of giving billions of dollars in the past to Iran to pave the way for it to acquire nuclear weapons. He even made fun of Obama when he campaigned for Hillary Clinton and Harris Harris, but they both lost the election.
Trump then pointed the finger at Obama-backed Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan, calling him a “Muslim Brotherhood jihadist”, accusing him of hating Jews, Africans and Americans and even calling him a “fake doctor”. Finally, he called on voters to support Republican nominee Mike Rogers. The above allegations are all allegations made by Trump and are not proven facts.
As the Nov. 3 midterm elections approach and the Democratic Party attempts to regain control of both houses of Congress, Trump has called on his supporters to “pretend I’m on the ballot” to rally Republican voters.
