Barack Obama has claimed that Donald Trump’s attitude toward him changes completely depending on whether they are in the same room together, calling out what he described as a stark difference between Trump’s public comments and his private demeanor.
Obama made the remarks on Wednesday’s episode of the All the Smoke podcast, hosted by former NBA players Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson.
Obama claims Trump speaks differently behind closed doors
During the conversation, the hosts brought up the fact that Trump frequently mentions Obama by name. The former president called it an “obsession” and said it was evidence that Trump was “not focused on the American people.”
He then went further, claiming that Trump’s tone shifts dramatically when the two are actually in the same room.
