Former President Obama kicked his feud with President Trump up a notch on Wednesday as he tries to help the blue wave materialize in next week’s midterms.
Campaigning for Democrats in Georgia, Obama responded to Trump’s comments pushing back on his own remark comparing the president’s White House renovations to the Cheesecake Factory — if it were decorated by the late Iraqi dictator Sadam Hussein.
“They mobilized a whole-of-government response to that joke, not to inflation, but to that joke,” he said. “This is what I mean when I say these are not serious people.” by Jared Gans and Sarah Fortinsky ‘The Hill’
Trolling is about garnering reactions, and that is exactly what the former president succeeded in doing. As President Obama hits the campaign trail to shore up his party’s base, he is egging on the current administration and getting reactions. These tit-for-tat exchanges get a lot of attention in the 24-hour mediaverse, which is the point. Rise above the incessant noise and get your message out.
