Former President Barack Obama tore into Donald Trump and said it feels like “every day is Halloween — except it’s all tricks and no treats” under his administration.

Obama shredded Trump during a speech Saturday in support of Virginia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Abigail Spanberger, where he said, “It’s worse than even I expected.” “It's not as if we didn't see some of this coming,” Obama told the crowd at the rally in Norfolk. “I will admit it's worse than even I expected. But I did warn y'all,” he added.

The former president began by reeling off how the Trump family has benefited from cryptocurrency dealings and accused the president of prioritizing his “billionaire pals and finance bros.” “Is the economy working better for you? Because it sure has gotten better for Trump and his family,” said Obama.

Members of the Trump family, through an umbrella company, own more than half of the cryptocurrency venture World Liberty Financial and it has allegedly netted them hundreds of millions of dollars, according to Reuters.
