Trump and Obama trade barbs in closing week of US midterm election

Barack Obama, back on the campaign trail for the Democrats. Three rallies in one week in Michigan, Ohio and Georgia, urging voters to turn out in force for the midterms, an election that could shape the remaining two years of Donald Trump's presidency. This guy is spending all that much time focused on the issues that matter to you. A marked change from the low-profile Obama kept during Trump's first term, but he's lost none of his sharp wit, employing it in jabs at Donald Trump. He's got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened a cheesecake factory. And Obama's verdict on his presidency is scathing. Listen, after two years of chaos and cruelty and corruption and incompetence, the likes of which this country has not seen in modern times, you get to say enough is enough. We're voting for change here in Georgia. At almost the same time, hundreds of miles away in Ohio, though, Donald Trump was also campaigning. Despite ongoing tensions with Iran and soaring cost of living, the president defended his administration's policies in his own characteristic style. Venezuela, we finished it in one day with nobody. They don't talk about that. Nobody killed. Nobody killed. We did Venezuela, and now we're doing bigger country, but doing equally as well. They have no navy. They have no air force. Trump has stepped up his campaign appearances in recent weeks, attending 20 rallies in October alone. A president who clearly feels his presence is critical, even though his name is not on the ballot.
