Obama vs. Trump

On 7th September, 2018, Barack Obama, our former president, went against a long held tradition whereby former presidents avoid directly criticizing their successors. Amongst other things, Obama blamed the sitting president for taking credit for the nation’s economic advancement when the same had actually stated when he (Obama) was in office. He also voiced his concerns with Trumps occasional criticism of constitutional bodies such as the Justice Department.

July 26th 2017: Trump twitted that Senator Lisa Murkowski was effectively letting “republicans, and our country down… too bad!!!” This was after the senator contributed in frustrating Trump’s efforts to repeal Obamacare.

August 24th 2017: Trump tweeted that the only concern he had regarding Senator Mitch McConnell had to do with the fact that “after hearing Repeal & Replace for 7 years, he failed!”

August 25th 2017: Trump twitted that Senator Bob Corker had been pestering him with questions….....
