Obama Says Trump Isn’t Even ‘Pretending to Be In Charge’

In rare public criticism, former President Barack Obama told college graduates that the coronavirus pandemic shows “folks in charge” don’t always know what they’re doing, the Washington Post reports.

Said Obama: “More than anything, this pandemic has fully, finally torn back the curtain on the idea that the folks in charge know what they’re doing. A lot of them aren’t even pretending to be in charge.”
