Former President Donald Trump has reignited his longstanding feud with Barack Obama by accusing him of 'treason' and orchestrating a 'coup' through the 2016 Russia investigation.
Trump and his allies, including Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, claim the Obama administration manufactured intelligence to undermine Trump's presidency. These explosive allegations have been met with strong denials from Obama and his spokesperson, who call the claims a 'weak attempt at distraction,' especially as Trump faces scrutiny over unrelated controversies. The intelligence community and bipartisan reports have previously concluded that Russia did interfere in the 2016 election, but found no evidence of a coup by Obama.
The renewed attacks have polarized political discourse, with calls for prosecutions and heated exchanges dominating the news.
