Former President Barack Obama returned to the campaign trail Tuesday to drum up support for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, urging voters in the crucial battleground state of Florida to support his former vice president and casting President Trump as an attention-seeker who has turned the White House into a coronavirus hot-spot.
Mr. Obama held a drive-in rally in Orlando, during which he urged Florida voters to come up with a plan to cast their ballots early.
"This election requires every single one of us, and what we do this week will matter for decades to come," Mr. Obama said amid honks from supporters in attendance.
The former president chastised Mr. Trump for failing to take the presidency seriously and lamented that the American people have "had to live with the consequences." Painting the president as media hungry, Mr. Obama joked that Mr. Trump is "jealous of COVID's media coverage" and failed to even prevent the coronavirus from spreading in the White House.
"I lived in the White House for awhile," Mr. Obama said. "You know, it's a controlled environment. You can take some preventive measures in the White House to avoid getting sick. Except this guy can't seem to do it. He's turned the White House into a hot zone."
The current president, Mr. Obama said, "hasn't shown any interest in doing the work or helping anybody but himself and his friends or treating the presidency as anything more than a reality show that can give him the attention that he craves."
"The presidency doesn't change who you are. It reveals who you are," Mr. Obama said. "And Joe time and time again has shown himself to be a man of principle and character, and he's going to be a great president."

No. Trump is mad at the lies and fake news about COVID and what Trump is failing to do or has failed to do; so what, he’s a doctor? He sent stuff to all the whining mayors and governors (DemoRats) including a hospital ship that was hardly used: twenty or so patients.
“ ...media hungry, Mr. Obama joked that Mr. Trump is “jealous of COVID’s media coverage” and failed to even prevent the coronavirus from spreading in the White House.”
