The President of the United States, Donald Trump, has lashed out this Saturday against former President Barack Obama, whom he has accused of incompetent management during his time in the White House. He has also questioned the effectiveness of his support for various Democratic candidates while urging votes for Republican Mike Rogers in Michigan, after Obama pointed him out as "directly responsible" for the rising prices due to the war against Iran.
In a message disseminated on social media, Trump has attacked Obama's strategy towards Iran, stating that he transferred "billions of dollars" to Tehran and paved the way for it to advance in the construction of a nuclear weapon. He has also criticized him for his support of the campaigns of Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris, both defeated, and has predicted a new setback for the candidate whom he claims to support at present.
The current occupant of the White House has extended his attacks to that candidate, whom he has labeled a "jihadist of the Muslim Brotherhood" and accused of holding hostile positions towards Jews, the black community, American citizens, and Trump himself. Furthermore, he has defined him as a "fake doctor" at the head of what he considers "the worst clinic in the United States" and has called into question his professional prestige, claiming it will deteriorate "as more information is revealed." "And there is a lot," he added.
In parallel, Trump has claimed his economic record in Michigan and has insisted that he won in that state "by a lot." He has boasted about the recovery of the automotive sector, the strengthening of the Air Force base, and that there are more jobs than ever. In this context, he has ruled out that the electorate of Michigan will support a candidate whom he accuses of advocating for open borders and of being arrogant.
In the final stretch of his message, the president has openly called for support for Rogers, emphasizing his reliability and making a direct appeal to the polls: "He will never disappoint you!" he concluded.
Trump's post comes after Obama directly blamed him for the rise in prices due to the war against Iran during a rally in Cleveland, Ohio, where he defended that Iran lacked nuclear weapons thanks to a deal that he himself promoted. "And I didn't have to fire a single missile to achieve it. I simply had to resort to diplomacy," concluded the former president.
