Donald Trump Blames Barrack Obama for the White House Air Conditioning Issue

Donald Trump is airing his woes about the cooling system in the White House — and he thinks Barack Obama had something to do with it.

While speaking to reporters in the Oval Office on Friday, Trump, 73, revealed he would be spending time at his New Jersey golf club resort next month, but claimed that "it's never a vacation" while he's in Bedminster and said he would rather be at the White House, the Associated Press reports.

The president also argued that his time away from Capitol Hill would give maintenance crews an opportunity to fix the inadequate air conditioning system, which he insinuated was ruined by his predecessor.

"The Obama administration worked out a brand new air conditioning system for the West Wing," he explained, according to AP. "It was so good before they did the system. Now that they did this system, it's [either] freezing or hot."

In addition to the air conditioning, Trump also claimed that the U.S. has "a much better economy than in [Obama's] wildest dreams."

He later suggested that authorities should look into the former president's book deal with Penguin Random House instead of the Russian investigation involving former FBI Special Counsel Robert Mueller, Fox 5 D.C. reports.

"It's a disgrace. We want to find out what happened with the last Democrat president. Let's look into Obama the way they've looked at me from day one," he said, according to the outlet. "They've looked into everything that we've done."

"They could look into the book deal that President Obama made," Trump continued. "Let's subpoena all of his records."

Obama, 57, has also previously taken aim at the current president. In October, at a Democratic campaign event in Milwaukee ahead of the midterms, Obama called out Trump’s failure "to take on corruption. Remember that?" he said.

"They have gone to Washington and just plundered away. In Washington, they have racked up enough indictments to field a football team,” Obama continued, before concluding, "Nobody in my administration got indicted."

A month later — just two days before Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen pleaded guilty to lying to Congress about the Russia investigation after being charged by Mueller — the 44th commander in chief echoed his earlier sentimentsstating, "Not only did I not get indicted, nobody in my administration got indicted."

Obama continued, "By the way, it was the only administration in modern history that that can be said about. In fact, nobody came close to being indicted, probably because the people who joined us were there for the right reasons."

Most recently, on Saturday, Obama appeared to reference Trump’s recent racist commentsattacking four congresswomen of color when he tweeted a Washington Post op-ed written and signed by African-American members of his administration.

The op-ed spoke out against Trump’s tweets earlier this month telling four Democratic congresswomen of color to “go back and help fix the totally broken and crime-infested places from which they came” despite the majority of the women being born in America.

“I’ve always been proud of what this team accomplished during my administration,” Obamatweeted. “But more than what we did, I’m proud of how they’re continuing to fight for an America that’s better.”

CALIFORNIA FIRE: 62,000 People Have Fled Blaze

  The evacuations have come amid a grueling heat wave, the coronavirus pandemic and air thick with smoke. The wildfires have burned through more than 350,000 acres. The wildfires that continued to rip across Northern California on Thursday have forced 62,000 people from their homes and threaten evacuations for 100,000 more. Firefighters have struggled to contain the blazes, and massive smoke clouds have harmed the air quality. A large group of fires burning in wine country west of Sacramento had grown to cover 131,000 acres, according to Cal Fire, the state’s fire authority. The agency said that, in all, nearly 350,000 acres have burned in Northern and Central California, with many fires sparked by lightning strikes in the high heat and then fanned by winds. Those conditions helped new fires sprout across the state on Wednesday and Thursday, and caused other fires to merge, complicating efforts to contain the combined blazes. Almost two dozen major fires were reported on Wednesday,...

Reopenings: “New Wide Release Movies Are Unlikely To Be Available”

The National Association of Theatre Owners is continuing its work advocating for cinemas during the COVID-19 pandemic. In their latest statement, the association responds to several states’ plans to open theaters as early as next week. The White House’s plan to open the economy includes theaters under “Phase One,” meaning they would be allowed to open after the area in which they operate in satisfies  three qualifying criteria . In the days since the White House released its plan, Georgia governor Brian Kemp has stated that movie theaters in his state  could be allowed to open as early as next Monday, April 27  if they adhere to “specific social distancing and sanitation mandates.” Governors of Tennessee and South Carolina have also announced plans to allow non-essential businesses to reopen, though what this means for movie theaters specifically has not yet been clarified. As states begin to move towards reopening, NATO issued the following statement: While some states a...
