President Donald Trump is continuing to criticize former President Barack Obama, but most of his claims are based on lies.

“President Obama and Vice President [Joe] Biden never even tried to fix this during their eight-year period,” Trump said. “The reason they didn’t try is because they had no idea how to do it.”
