Let's Watch Barack Obama Kick Donald Trump Right In The ... Economic Policy

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

48% : I mean, I am the hopey-changey guy," Obama said they need to ask whether anything Trump shakes up would actually be good for them.
43% : He went after Trump with surgical rhetorical precision.
39% : Right into our veins! Obama also went after Trump's incredible -- in the literal sense of the word -- lies about the federal response to Hurricane Helene, pointing out how completely unlike any president ever that was: "Donald Trump, at a rally, just started making up stories about the Biden administration withholding aid from Republican areas and siphoning off aid to give to undocumented immigrants.
33% : " Walz should definitely challenge Trump to change a tire, is what we are saying.
15% : Acknowledging that inflation and post-COVID economic weirdness are still making a lot of people (falsely) nostalgic for How Things Were, Obama deftly reframed that feeling, pointing out the economic good times they yearn for had little to do with Trump: Reminding us that he understood why people "are looking to shake things up.
9% : But it wasn't just a Trump is old and poopstinky joke: The notion of Donald Trump changing a little baby's diaper -- nope, never would happen -- instantly underlined that Trump is not and has never been someone who knows how regular Americans live.
5% : Sometimes Obama has been too good at that; his mockery of Trump at the 2011 White House Correspondents Dinner -- delivered as US troops on the other side of the planet were on their way to kill Osama bin Laden -- may have been at least partly the motivation for Trump's Rage 'n' Revenge-fueled campaign for the presidency, although Trump denies it.
2% : To close, let's skip back a bit, to just after Obama tore into Trump about the hurricane lies, when he called out Republicans who glibly put up with it or refuse to challenge Trump about it.
