Breaking News – Barack Obama rips into Donald Trump

FORMER President, Barack Obama tore into Donald Trump in his first intervention of the 2020 Presidential election.

He attacked his successor over his approach to Covid-19 and healthcare, his love of conspiracy theories and the revelation that he has a secret Chinese bank account.

He joked, “Can you imagine if I had a secret Chinese bank account while I was running for reelection? Fox News would have called me Beijing Barry.”

The former US President joined Joe Biden’s campaign trail today for the first time, holding a drive-in rally in Pennsylvania, and Barack Obama rips into Donald Trump!

Barack Obama said President Trump wanted to “take full credit for the economy he inherited, but zero blame for the pandemic he ignored.

“But you know what? The job doesn’t work that way. Tweeting at the television doesn’t fix things. Making stuff up doesn’t make people’s lives better. You’ve got to have a plan. You’ve got to put in the work.”

Obama: "[Trump] has not shown any interest in doing the work or helping anybody but himself & his friends or treating the presidency like a reality show he can use to get attention..the only people truly better off than they were 4 years ago are billionaires who got his tax cuts" pic.twitter.com/TuEZ1dVfjO

And he took no prisoners as he blasted Trump’s response to the coronavirus pandemic.

“We literally left this White House a pandemic playbook that would have shown them how to respond before the virus reached our shores,” he said.

“They probably used it to, I don’t know, prop up a wobbly table somewhere.”
