Shots have been thrown out between President Donald Trump and his predecessors, with Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush all expressing concerns about his administration and policies. This public fighting among a small group of former presidents is very unusual, but it shows how far this administration is going.
Former President Barack Obama has been especially vocal, saying that President Trump shows a “weak attachment to democracy.” Speaking in Hartford, Connecticut, Obama suggested the United States is coming “dangerously close” to accepting authoritarian behavior as normal, especially because there has been little resistance to false claims, like the idea that the 2020 election was stolen.
