Obama criticizes Trump's "division politics."
Baghdad / Sky Press
Former US President Barack Obama returned to the forefront of campaigning on Thursday (October 19th, 2017), criticizing "division politics" after he was out of the limelight and avoiding any direct confrontation with his successor in the White House since his term ended.
In a speech during a rally in New Jersey in support of the Democratic candidate for state governor, the 56-year-old former president attacked the fear and bitterness that dominated the 2016 campaign and led Donald Trump to the presidency.
"We should not have the same old division policies that we have seen many times in the past and go back centuries," Obama said at the Newark rally in support of Phil Murphy.
"Some of the policies we see now, we thought it was over," he said. "It's the 21st century, not the 19th."
Obama later appeared at a rally in Richmond to support his party's candidate for Governor Ralph Northam, who indirectly criticized Trump's approach to the White House. "If you win the campaign by spreading divisions among people, you will not be able to govern them, and you will not be able to unite them later," Obama said.
"We are best when we try to promote everyone, not when we try to humiliate people."
Voters in New Jersey and Virginia will choose their governors on November 7, a year after Trump's defeat of his rival Hillary Clinton and his arrival at the White House thanks to a wave of anger at the traditional political establishment.
The next month's maturity is an indicator of voter sentiment ahead of the 2018 legislative elections, which will be a real test for Mr Trump and his Republican party.
Virginia Gov. Larry Sabato, a political science professor at Virginia State University, called the vote for the governors of New Jersey and Virginia states the only "big elections" of 2017. Obama has largely distanced himself from political debate since leaving the White House on January 20, in line with the presidential tradition.
Meanwhile, Trump used his first nine months in the White House to systematically destroy the Obama administration's key policies.
After a three-month leave, Obama began writing his memoirs. He spoke only rarely and refused to hold any interviews.
Test for tramp
Obama has been silent only several times to comment on issues of national importance such as immigration, health care and climate change.
In New Jersey, Murphy appears to be the favorite candidate to succeed Republican Gov. Chris Christie, a Trump ally whose popularity has fallen to record highs.
"There is a much greater need for Obama to be in Richmond than in Trenton," he said, referring to the capital states of the two states.
Virginia is central, the only southern state that Clinton won in 2016. This importance is further enhanced by its proximity to Washington.
"If the Republican Party loses Virginia, the biggest blame will be on Trump because his popularity is very low in the state," Sabato said.
If the Republicans win Virginia, "Trump will not have this responsibility for Republican performance in 2018."
In Richmond, former president Northam, the state's deputy governor, gave a little advance on Republican Id Gillespie in a Quinipiac poll.
More than six hours before the rally in Richmond, Lucas Anderton lined up waiting for his turn to buy tickets to listen to Obama's speech.
"It's important to me, he's my hero and it's good to see him in the fight again," he said.
I hope so because we need a strong leader, "said Nancy Atkins, who was waiting for her turn to enter the site where Obama will deliver his speech in Richmond.
"We need to see Martin Luther King and see in former President Obama this leader," Atkins said.
Trump, who is well aware of the importance of the vote, supported Gillespie and accused Northam of "fighting for the MS-13," a gang of Central American descent, and accused him of supporting cities that provide "sanctuaries" for illegal immigrants.
Gillespie, a former adviser to President George W. Bush and later turned into a millionaire involved in lobbying organizations, pushed himself away from Trump, who was unable to deliver his candidate during the Alabama Senate elections.
