Obama Mocks Trump’s ‘Arts and Crafts’ as US Fights War, Prices Rise
Obama mocked Trump for doing “arts and crafts” as he criticized the president over war, rising prices and White House renovations.
During a campaign rally in Morrow, Georgia, former President Barack Obama mocked President Donald Trump for spending time "super-gluing gold medallions to the mantel in the Oval Office" while America was fighting a war and fighting against high prices. Obama criticized Trump's White House renovations, which he claimed were done while the country was facing an "unnecessary war" and economic hardships.
The former president argued that the Trump administration's priorities were misguided, as they focused on defending Trump's actions, such as the "Cheesecake Factory" comment, rather than addressing the pressing issues of inflation and the decision to enter the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran. Obama also accused the administration of bending to the demands of Russian President Vladimir Putin and failing to deliver on promises to control costs, which he claimed had led to a rise in prices.
