Donald Trump went on a late-night Truth Social spree this week, posting and reposting dozens of messages targeting several of his political opponents – including former President Barack Obama.
On Monday night, Donald Trump shared more than 50 posts on Truth Social, many of them focused on long-standing claims surrounding the 2016 election and Obama’s role in it.
One repost described Obama as the “most DEMONIC FORCE in American politics in decades,” before adding: “Arrest them all. Prosecute them all. Incarcerate them all at once for treachery, treason, and seditious conspiracy to overthrow the United States government. But first Barack Obama.”
Trump also reshared a post from a MAGA-supporting account accusing Obama of fabricating evidence that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election.
“Arrest Obama the traitor,” the account wrote.
Donald Trump’s rant on Truth Social
Several of the posts repeated unproven allegations that Obama used federal agencies to spy on Trump ahead of the 2016 election. Trump has repeatedly referred to those claims as “the biggest political crime in American history.”
Some of the reposts included older news clips centered around Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and a 2020 report she previously claimed showed Obama played a role in pushing narratives about Russian election interference in an effort to damage Trump politically.
Obama denied those accusations at the time, calling them “bizarre” and “a weak attempt at distraction.”
