Former President Barack Obama hit the campaign trail in Philadelphia Wednesday on behalf of his former vice president, Joe Biden.
Obama repeatedly attacked President Donald Trump in his drive in speech: "Look I get that this president wants full credit for the economy he inherited, and zero blame for the pandemic."
"Tweeting at the television doesn't fix things," Obama added.
Obama blasted Trump's handling of the coronavirus pandemic, his response to racial unrest and his fundamental unfitness for the job.
He even recounted how, in his first job as a teenager in an ice-cream store, he paid more in taxes than Trump. "Maybe, just maybe he doesn't know what working people are going through in Pennsylvania," Obama said.
Obama also slammed the president's social media practices, promising voters if they supported Biden, "you'll be able to go about your lives knowing that the president is not going to retweet conspiracy theories about secret cabals running the world."
