Barack Obama recently urged networks to take down a pro-Donald Trump ad that is targeting Joe Biden.
According to Politico, the ex-POTUS is not pleased with the ad because it took his words out of context and made it seem as though he called Biden a racist.
According to Political Flare journalist Jason Miciak, Obama’s demand to take down the ad is a direct expression of his anger at Trump.
“There is no way in my opinion that the Trump campaign didn’t know of and approve the ad, and thus the demand to take it down functions as a demand of the television stations, directing anger at Trump,” he said.
The journalist also said that the timing of the ad attacking Biden couldn’t be untimelier because it aired just before the South Carolina primary. In it, Biden also appears to have racist thoughts about Michelle Obama’s husband.
Obama’s communications director also released a statement on behalf of the ex-POTUS after the ad aired.
“This despicable ad is straight out of the Republican disinformation playbook, and it’s clearly designed to suppress turnout among minority voters in South Carolina by taking President Obama’s voice out of context and twisting his words to mislead viewers,” he said.
Meanwhile, Miciak said that the fact that Trump’s administration continues to target Biden could only mean that they are still scared of him. Biden is running against Trump in the presidential elections under the Democratic party.
But Trump and his administration are confident that they could beat every other candidate most especially Bernie Sanders.
“We think we can beat all of them, but Bernie [Sanders] is easier to beat because he’s so far left that it’s the type of choice we want,” they said.
In related news, Trump’s previous insult directed at Obama made headlines again this week. In 2014, the POTUS called Obama a psycho after he refused to cancel all flights to and from Ebola-affected countries.
