Message For Trump? Obama Names 'Biggest Mistake' Leaders Make In A Crisis

Former President Barack Obama warned a group of mayors Thursday of the “biggest mistake” they could make during a crisis such as the ongoing COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic.

And though he never mentioned his successor by name, it sounded like a message for President Donald Trump.

“The biggest mistake any [of] us can make in these situations is to misinform, particularly when we’re requiring people to make sacrifices and take actions that might not be their natural inclination,” Obama said at a virtual meeting arranged by Bloomberg Philanthropies, according to a news release.

Trump has repeatedly misinformed the public about the nature of the coronavirus threat and the outbreaks across the United States.

Trump has probably soiled himself in anger.
