Former US President Barack Obama targeted former President Donald Trump and his administration during his campaign for Democrats in Ohio ahead of the US midterm elections. Obama criticized Trump for the ongoing Iran war and high consumer prices, urging voters to "rein in some of the foolishness" of the administration. Meanwhile, Trump hosted a rally in Georgia, praising his administration's immigration and tariff policies and promising a $5,000 payout for every adult American if Republicans control both chambers of Congress.
The midterm elections on November 3 will determine which party controls Congress and influences the president's ability to implement his policies. Early voting has already begun, and Trump cast his ballot alongside his wife, First Lady Melania Trump, in Florida. Obama mocked Trump's White House redecorating efforts, while Trump addressed the high oil prices, attributing them to temporary increases caused by conflicts in Iran and Ukraine.
Trump also mocked Democrats and their proposed immigration policies from countries he deemed "terror-infested."
