Michael Cohen dishes on why Donald Trump is so jealously obsessed with President Obama
Donald Trump’s years-long negative obsession with President Barack Obama has long bordered on clinical. Trump spent the final five years of Obama’s presidency pushing the racist “birther” narrative. Trump has spent the entirety of his own failed presidency trying to undo everything Obama accomplished, out of pure spite. So what gives?
Michael Cohen appeared on the Rachel Maddow show tonight and provided some revealing context. Simply put, Trump is insecure and jealous of Obama. Cohen explained it this way: “He’s Black, he went to Harvard Law, top of his class, he’s incredibly articulate … he’s all the things Donald Trump wants to be.”
