Trump also reposted a claim from a MAGA account that stated Obama made up evidence that Russia interfered with the 2016 presidential election, which led to Trump beating Hillary Clinton to the White House.

“Arrest Obama the traitor,” the account wrote.

Many of Trump’s other posts on Truth Social reiterated unproven claims Obama used federal agencies to spy on Trump before the 2016 vote, which the current president described as ‘the biggest political crime in American history’.

His posts bizarrely shared news footage that appears to be from last year, concentrating on the US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard releasing a 2020 report she claimed showed Obama was behind claims Russia interfered in the 2016 election in an attempt to discredit Trump.

Barack Obama at the time called the claims ‘bizarre’ and ‘a weak attempt at distraction’.
