Washington D.C. witnessed a dramatic turn in political tensions as former President Donald Trump accused ex-President Barack Obama of treason over the 2016 election interference allegations. The accusations surfaced amid renewed investigations into Russia’s role in the 2016 U.S. presidential election. Trump claimed that the Obama administration engaged in a ‘treasonous conspiracy’ by allegedly manufacturing intelligence.
In response, Obama’s office dismissed these claims as a ‘weak attempt at distraction’ and ‘bizarre’, emphasizing that the ex-president stands by the U.S. intelligence community’s conclusion that Russia interfered in the 2016 election to help Trump. The clash escalated after Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard released documents purportedly supporting Trump’s accusations. The political feud intensified conversations on various news platforms, including CNN and The New York Times.
