Unprecedented criticism of former US presidents of Trump

According to RCO News Agency, US media, referring to the public criticism of the three former US presidents against Donald Trump, described the move as unprecedented and demonstrates the depth of the danger that these former leaders feel.

According to the Washington Post, in less than three weeks, three former US presidents came to the public scene to warn of Trump’s actions; An act that is contrary to the long -standing tradition of US presidents. In the US, former presidents usually refuse to criticize their successors.

Barack Obama called the American people to stand up to Trump’s bullying. Joe Biden warned that Trump was destroying the “sacred promise” of social security, and Bill Clinton also emphasized the risk of focusing on Trump’s hatred and domination.

Although the three Democrats did not directly name Trump, their message was obvious: it is unusual for American democracy, norms have been ignored and extraordinary measures are needed. The only living president who has been silent since the beginning of Trump’s era is George W. Bush, a Republican boy, but his hostility to Trump is not hidden.

“The former presidents have a unique position to warn the country if they feel threatened,” says Colombian University historian Yamouti Nafizali. They are a kind of US nation’s advisory council. “When this council sounds alarm, people have to listen.”

On April 3, Obama spoke at Hamilton College, New York, one of the oldest colleges in the United States, and urged people to resist Trump’s attacks on universities and institutions. “It is up to us all to reform this situation,” he said. No one is supposed to come and save us. “The most important responsibility in this democracy is the shoulders of ordinary citizens.”

Biden spoke for the first time after leaving power at the National Conference on Disabled Lawyers in Chicago. He condemned the reduction of social security budget by Ilan Musk and said, “In less than five days, the government has caused so much damage that it is not unbelievable.”

Clinton also spoke at an emotional ceremony in Oklahoma City on the anniversary of the bombing of a federal building that had killed four. He emphasized that the city of Oklahoma was able to maintain its cohesion after the disaster, but today the United States has been divided.

“Today everyone is discussing who the hatred is more important and justified; “When can a little distorted the truth to win.” At a time when Trump was drastically reducing the federal government’s manpower, Clinton praised government employees.

Historians say even a former president rarely criticize his successor; Let alone three people do so for a short time. They say this is unprecedented.

“What really highlights this is that these things happened before Trump’s first two days of presidency,” says Naftali. The former presidents usually give the new president the opportunity to consolidate his place and become familiar with the rules of the work … but these former heads have already realized what Trump is underway. “
