In confidential statements, the former President of the United States, Barack Obama, harshly criticized the management of his successor, Donald Trump, of the crown pandemic. Trump’s crisis management was “an absolutely chaotic catastrophe,” Obama said in an interview with former members of his administration on Friday night, according to an audio recording. According to Yahoo News, other US media reported the remarks on Saturday.
Obama accuses Trump of selfishness and hostility
Obama criticized that Trump’s inadequate responses to the challenges of the crown pandemic reflected a “what’s in it for me” and “the hell with everyone else” mentality. Selfishness and hostility have become a “stronger impetus in American life.”
The United States is the most severely affected by the crown pandemic in the world. More than 1.3 million infections and more than 78,000 crown deaths have now been reported in the United States. Trump is accused of underestimating the pandemic and failing to respond to challenges early enough. It also leaves states alone in fighting the virus and allows them to fight for protective gear.
Concerned that “our basic understanding of the rule of law is in jeopardy”
Obama also criticized the decision of the United States Department of Justice to drop the charges against Trump’s former national security adviser, Michael Flynn, regarding the Russia issue. Flynn pleaded guilty in December 2017 to lying to the FBI about his contacts with former Russian Ambassador Sergei Kislyak. The former general later said he would withdraw the guilty confession.
Because of such decisions, he is concerned that “our basic understanding of the rule of law is at risk,” Obama told his former associates. Therefore, he called on them to support designated Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden in the race against Trump. The United States presidential election will take place in early November. “I hope everyone feels the same urgency as I do,” Obama said.
