    Obama Mocks Trump’s Competence: ‘You Would Be Worried If Your Grandpa Was Acting Like This’

    Former President Barack Obama mocked former President Donald Trump over some of his more bizarre moments of late.

    Speaking at a rally in Tucson, Arizona on Friday night to boost Vice President Kamala Harris and U.S. Senate candidate Ruben Gallego , Obama laid into his Republican counterpart.

    “I do have to point out that along with his intentions, there is also a question of his competence,” he told the crowd. “Have you seen him lately? I mean, he is out there, he’s giving two, two-and-a-half-hour speeches. Just word salads. You have no idea what he’s talking about. He’s talking about Hannibal Lecter. He’s talking about this. He’s talking about that.”

    Trump has repeatedly invoked the fictional cannibal in his rally speeches.

    “You know, they go crazy when I say the late great Hannibal Lecter, ok?” Trump said in July. “They say, ‘Why would he mention Hannibal Lecter? He must be cognitively in trouble.’ No, no. These are real stories.”

    Obama then pointed to a recent town hall Trump held, where he ended up swaying back and forth on stage as music played for 40 minutes .

    “Let me explain because I’ve done a lot of town hall meetings,” Obama continued. “The point of a town hall meeting is to take questions. He just decided, you know what, I’m gonna stop taking questions and then he’s swaying to ‘Ave Maria’ and ‘Y.M.C.A.’ for about half an hour. Folks are standing there, not sure what’s happening. Can you imagine if I did that? Can you imagine if Ruben did that?”

    After making a crack about how their playlists would be better, Obama pulled the grandpa card on Trump.

    “He called himself ‘ the father IVF ,'” he added. “I do not know what that means. You do not either. He said January 6th was ‘ a day of lov e’… You would be worried if your grandpa was acting like this. No, no. I’m not joking. You would, right? You’d call up your cousins and you’d say, ‘Have you noticed?'”
