As he campaigned in the must-win state of Pennsylvania, Obama also chided Black male voters for what he called hesitancy in supporting Democrat Harris because they just arent feeling the idea of having a woman as president.Obama trained his fire on Trump during a pumped-up rally in Pittsburgh, comparing the Republicans long speeches to late Cuban communist leader Fidel Castros and calling the billionaire out of touch with ordinary people.Obama admitted that this elections going to be tight as many voters were still struggling with high prices.What I cannot understand is why anybody would think that Donald Trump will shake things up, adding: You think Donald Trump ever changed a diaper?The popular Democrat called Trumps schemes to sell bibles as cr@zy and used the same word to describe the 78-year-old former leaders embrace of conspiracy theories.As the crowd booed Trump, his successor in the White House, Obama added: Dont boo vote.Kamala is as prepared for the job as any nominee for president has ever been, he added.Vice President Harriss campaign said Obamas appearance, the first in a series in battleground states before the November 5 election, was designed to get people out to vote in crucial Pennsylvania.Obamas focus was the male voters who might be attracted by Trumps masculine appeal.Im sorry gentlemen, Ive noticed this, especially with some men who seem to think Trumps behaviour, the bullying and the putting people down, is a sign of strength, he said.Saying he had some truths that he wanted the Black community to hear, Obama said that Youre coming up with all kinds of reasons and excuses, Ive got a problem with that.Because part of it makes me think and Im speaking to men directly part of it makes me think that, well, you just arent feeling the idea of having a woman as president, Obama saidHarris was in Nevada for a town hall hosted by the Spanish language network Univision Thursday and later spoke at a rally in Arizona.When a woman asked Harris at the town hall to name three of Trumps virtues, she replied: I think Donald Trump loves his family, and I think thats very important.
