Ruben Gallego, who’s vying for an open Senate seat there.Advertisement

The former president laid in on Trump’s widely mocked town hall earlier this week, in which the GOP presidential nominee spent nearly 40 minutes swaying on stage to music instead of answering questions.“Can you imagine if I did that?” Obama said. “Our playlist would probably be better.”“You would be worried if your grandpa was acting like this” — Obama pic.twitter.com/31Vvtvi2Fh— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) October 18, 2024Then, addressing Trump’s recent head-scratching claim that he’s “the father of IVF,” Obama quipped: “I do not know what that means. You do not either.”Advertisement

And Obama said his successor, who recently claimed the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection in Washington, D.C. was a “day of love,” made the deadly riot “sound like it was Woodstock.”Then his tone darkened. “Tucson, we do not need to see what an older, loonier Donald Trump looks like with no guardrails,” the former president warned.Obama also regaled the crowd with commentary about Trump’s various business ventures, from his $400 gold high-tops to his six-figure watches.Advertisement

“When he’s not complaining, he’s trying to sell you stuff,” Obama joked. “He’s got his gold sneakers, he’s got the $100,000 watch — says it’s a Swiss watch, but nobody can actually figure out where in Switzerland was this thing made.”But Obama’s “favorite” Trump product, he said, is a $60 Trump-branded Bible.“He’s got the Trump Bible ― wants you to buy the word of God, Donald Trump edition,” he continued. “His name’s gonna be on there, embossed, right next Luke and Mark and Matthew,” he said, referencing three of the gospels from the New Testament.RelatedDonald TrumpBarack Obama    2024 electionskamala harrisTrump's Campaign Goes Off The Rails With 3 Weeks Until The ElectionHarris Dunks On Trump For Being Too ‘Exhausted’ For InterviewsMore Jan. 6 Evidence That Trump Tried To Keep Hidden Is Out Go to HomepageLEAVE A COMMENTSuggest a correction|Submit a tipAdvertisement

Him wearing tan pants made them loose their racist minds

Now imagine if he :

looked into a eclipse like a moron 

Attempted a coup

Having a horrible Covid response

Convicted of felonies 

Siding with Putin instead of US Intelligence agencies

Dancing around for 40 minutes like a dementia patient needing a nurse to put him to bed


The sad pathetic list goes on and on as shame and holding one accountable disappears
