Former US President Barack Obama made a subtle dig at current President Donald Trump during an appearance on the Stephen Colbert Show. Obama joined The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on May 5, as Colbert is preparing to exit his role as the late-night host.
Colbert mentioned rumors of him running for the US presidency, to which Obama responded humorously, suggesting Colbert could outperform some current political figures. Since Obama’s presidency ended in 2017, the US has seen both Donald Trump’s and Joe Biden’s administrations.
Trump previously shared a controversial video on social media portraying Obama and his wife as primates in a jungle, refusing to apologize for the post. Obama recently disclosed in an interview that Trump’s actions have drawn him back into the political limelight more than he desired, causing strain in his marriage with Michelle.
Expressing frustration over the situation, Obama acknowledged the tension it has created in his household, with Michelle desiring more quality time together. Obama’s unexpected return to politics after an eight-year break has challenged his personal life with Michelle.
