Among the former presidents who have spoken out against Donald Trump, so far only Barack Obama has made his opinions about his successor a lot more known over the past several months since stepping back into the political scene. On the second day of the Democratic convention, another former president has chosen to speak out against one of his successors, Bill Clinton.
Clinton was among the top Democrats who spoke during the second day of the DNC. The former president criticized Trump within his five-minute remarks, targeting the one aspect of the US that Trump has often boasted about - the economy. Clinton criticized Trump’s constant use of social media to attack people who have criticized him publicly and the unemployment rate during his presidency. During his speech, Clinton described the elections as “the world’s most important job interview” and during a pandemic, the Oval Office in the White House should function as a “command center” instead of a “storm center.”
“Now you have to decide whether to renew his contract or hire someone else. If you want a president who defines the job as spending hours a day watching tv and zapping people on social media, he’s your man. Denying, distracting, and demeaning works great if you’re trying to entertain and inflame. But in a real crisis, it collapses like a house of cards,” said Clinton.
As with many top Democrats who spoke previously, Clinton also criticized Trump’s COVID-19 response citing the death toll and the number of infections. The former president compared how other countries have responded to the pandemic compared to the US.
Speaking of attacking people on social media, Trump took to Twitter to tell his followers not to purchase tires from Goodyear following the tire company’s ban on political attire like his famed “Make America Great Again” slogan-ed hats. This is a big contrast to his previous comments made against “cancel culture” and political correctness.
Goodyear then responded to Trump’s remarks, clarifying that their new policy refrains employees from wearing attire that shows support for a party or political candidate along with similar forms of advocacy outside racial justice and equality.
