While it’s no secret that Barack Obama and Donald Trump have clashed in the past, their disagreements had remained relatively civil—until now.
On July 20, Trump stirred fresh controversy by sharing an AI-generated video of Obama being arrested.
The post came just days after Tulsi Gabbard, now the U.S. Director of National Intelligence, publicly accused Obama of engaging in a “treasonous conspiracy” to undermine Trump’s 2016 victory.
Gabbard’s Explosive Accusation
Speaking on July 18, Gabbard claimed:
“Over 100 documents released on Friday detail how this treasonous conspiracy was directed by President Obama just weeks before leaving office, after Trump had already been elected.”
According to her, the Obama administration manipulated intelligence about Russian interference in the 2016 election—an interference that, per the administration, ultimately failed.
