President Donald Trump is obsessed with former President Barack Obama.

For years, Trump peddled racist conspiracy theories that Barack Obama wasn't born in the United States. When Obama made his birth certificate public, Trump claimed it was a fabrication.


Even now that Trump has become Obama's successor, he still blames Obama for nearly every failure of the Trump administration, and takes credit for every achievement of the Obama administration, such as Obama's economy and Veterans Choice legislation.

After Obama appeared to allude to the White House's ineptitude regarding the pandemic that's killed over 90 thousand Americans, the current President went postal.

Trump began flinging allegations about "Obamagate"—despite being unable to list a specific crime committed by the President.

Despite Trump's years-long smear campaign against Barack Obama, a new poll indicates that it hasn't been working.

A national survey from Public Policy Polling found that if an election between Barack Obama and Donald Trump was held today, Obama would beat Trump by 11 points.

The poll of over 1200 voters consisted of 41 percent Democrats, 36 percent Republicans, and 23 percent Independents.

People weren't surprised by the results, and wanted to make sure Trump saw them.



Though Obama handily beats Trump people still felt 43 percent support for the current President was too much.




Obama's win in the poll could mean good things for his former Vice President and likely 2020 Democratic nominee Joe Biden in November—but only if people vote.

Scott Bessent Blasted Over His Bonkers Suggestion For How To Bring Your Own Inflation Rate Down

Continuing to follow the example of MAGA Republican President Donald Trump, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent appeared on Meet the Press Sunday to blame Democratic President Joe Biden for the financial downturn caused by Trump's tariff fiasco, then lied repeatedly about the state of the economy.

Meet the Press host Kristen Welker played a clip of MAGA Republican Vice President JD Vance telling a conservative audience at a Breitbart News event that Americans owe the Trump administration "a little bit of patience"—apparently while they figure out what tariffs are and how they work since they're rolling back more of them to lower consumer prices despite claiming Trump's tariffs don't affect consumer prices.

Lindsay Lohan Is Now Sporting A New Accent—And Fans Aren't Sure What To Make Of It

Draped in a maroon, jewel-trimmed gown by The New Arrivals Ilkyaz Ozel and accompanied by her husband, Bader Shammas, and their 2-year-old son, Luai, the actress looked serene, elegant, and completely unbothered by the collective whiplash she was about to inflict on the internet.
