Trump Tweets Transition Is Not Going Smoothly Due To Obama's Statements

  • 7 years ago
Donald Trump tweeted on Wednesday that the transition is not going smoothly in light of recent statements made by President Obama.

Donald Trump will soon be moving into 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, but it appears he’s finding the last stretch of his journey there to be a bit rockier than he’d like.
On Wednesday morning, he tweeted, “Doing my best to disregard the many inflammatory President O statements and roadblocks. Thought it was going to be a smooth transition - NOT!”
It is not clear what triggered the tweet, but it could be related to Obama’s interview with CNN’s David Axelrod, which was broadcast on Monday.
The president expressed his belief that had he been permitted to run for the high office in 2016, his dedication to hope, unity, and betterment would have propelled him to a victory. 
If Trump’s tweet is a response to that projection, it would not be his first. 
On the day the interview was made public, the president-elect wrote on Twitter, “President Obama said that he thinks he would have won against me. He should say that but I say NO WAY! - jobs leaving, ISIS, OCare, etc.” 
He also commented, “President Obama campaigned hard (and personally) in the very important swing states, and lost.The voters wanted to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”
