Donald Dementia says Barack Obama should face a "military tribunal" [View all]

President Donald Trump on Sunday amplified a social media post insinuating that former President Barack Obama should face a “military tribunal” ― and a public one at that.

On Truth Social, Trump shared an entry from a right-wing X user with a photo of Trump and Obama accompanied by the caption: “ALL ROADS LEAD TO OBAMA... RETRUTH IF YOU WANT PUBLIC MILITARY TRIBUNALS.”

Trump didn’t comment on the post. But the original poster’s apparent QAnon adherence in their X profile description spotlighted the president’s willingness to give voice to the most extreme parts of his base.

Trump’s specific reason for advancing such a suggestion isn’t clear. He has repeatedly questioned Obama’s American birth and accused Obama of treason for spying on his 2016 campaign without proof. Trump defeated Democrat Hillary Clinton that year to succeed Obama in the White House.

Between golfing and social media does Trump have time for anything else?
