Donald Trump says Obama is behind protests at GOP tonwhalls and leaks coming from the White House...lol

Donald Trump has accused former president Barack Obama of being responsible for the demonstrations that have been going on across the country since the start of his presidency.

He made this accusation during an interview with Fox which will air on Tuesday morning. Though he had no evidence with which to defend his claims, Trump went further to suggest that Obama and his people were also behind the leaks of classified information from the White House to the press.

In a portion of the interview which was released on Monday night, Trump was asked by a Fox interviewer if he believed Obama was involved in the recent protests and he answered with conviction;

"You never know what's exactly happening behind the scenes. You know, you're probably right or possibly right, but you never know. No, I think that President Obama is behind it because his people are certainly behind it. And some of the leaks possibly come from that group, which are really serious because they are very bad in terms of national security. But I also understand that is politics. In terms of him being behind things, that's politics. And it will probably continue."

Republicans and rightwing media outlets have accused Obama of directing the demonstrations through a progressive group called Organizing for Action, OFA, which grew out of Obama's presidential campaigns. They also believe that Obama might be responsible because last month he had spoken out against Trump's travel ban.
