US “not getting relief anytime soon,” Obama says on oil prices after Trump’s “bad decisions”

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChLtXXpo4Ge1ReTEboVvTDg https://ift.tt/iCheXzL Amid Republican desperation for increased support in midterm elections, former U.S. president Barack Obama delivered a stirring speech at a Democratic rally in Atlanta, Ga. Wednesday, where he condemned President Donald Trump, his “bad decisions,” and his administration overall. Obama first ridiculed Trump for his "whole-of-government response" to a joke he made earlier in the week claiming the president has "got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory… These are not serious people.” “I accused this administration based on the facts that they were engaging in unprecedented levels of corruption. They didn't say anything about that,” Obama said, adding, “The president wasn't even mad about the Saddam Hussein comparison. That part didn't bother him. But he was very upset about the Cheesecake Factory comments. He took great umbrage. “ Obama went on to reprimand Trump for waging “an unnecessary war that nobody asked for” in Iran – one he suggested will continue to drive fuel costs, with no sign of “relief anytime soon.” “While all this is happening, the defense secretary is laser-focused on very important matters, like the jawline and testosterone levels of our troops, and livestreaming executions – because that's how he thinks you cultivate that manly warrior spirit,” Obama joked. Regarding the ongoing U.S.-Canada trade war, Obama challenged why Trump would alienate and go against “the people who gave us maple syrup and Martin Short,” as if they were the “historical adversary of the United States.” For more info, please go to https://ift.tt/sxRKU2T Subscribe to Global News Channel HERE: http://bit.ly/20fcXDc Follow Global News on X HERE: http://bit.ly/1Toz8mt Follow Global News on TikTok HERE: https://ift.tt/ZB8h4CV #GlobalNews #Obama #Trump
