Obama took aim at President Trump during a campaign event in Cleveland, Ohio, on Saturday, where he spent much of his time joking about the current administration’s focus on White House renovations, The Hill reports. The former president, who remains the only public official with a positive favorability rating in the state according to a recent Bowling Green State University poll, did not hold back on his thoughts regarding the spending.
Obama pointed to the over $900 million in construction projects currently happening at the White House. He suggested that the president is spending too much time on home improvements instead of addressing the issues that voters actually care about. He joked that the president belongs on a home improvement network rather than in the Oval Office.
