Summary

Barack Obama sharply criticized Donald Trump’s presidency during a speech at Hamilton College, condemning attacks on the press, immigration crackdowns, and threats to civil liberties.

He called it ā€œunimaginableā€ that Trump’s actions—such as barring the AP and threatening law firms—would have been tolerated under past presidents.

Obama warned that Trump’s behavior, though ā€œgoofy,ā€ poses real danger, and he labeled Trump a ā€œwannabe dictator.ā€

He also referenced former Trump aide John Kelly’s ā€œfascistā€ remark and urged Americans not to mistake chaos for leadership.

    Don’t forget that Obama was also a war criminal, just like the other US presidents in recent history.
