Barack Obama, at a campaign rally, says the current President is focused on "enriching himself and his family and his cronies." He says a U.S. ambassador shook down a donor for $100,000 to pay off her credit card bills, and that a Venezuelan billionaire seeking a pardon paid one of Trump's personal lawyers $50 million to be general counsel of an obscure company before the pardon came. "This is all documented," he says.

Now, the one thing that the current President is focused on other than home improvements is enriching himself and his family and his cronies. Just look in the last couple of weeks, and I just want to be clear, this is all documented. You can just look it up. I'm not making it up. You would have thought I was making it up, but I'm not. We've got a U .S. ambassador shaking down a donor to pay off her credit card bills, $100 ,000. We learned a Venezuelan billionaire wanted a pardon, so he paid one of Trump's personal lawyers $50 million to be general counsel of a company nobody knows anything about, and lo and behold, the pardon falls out of the sky.
