Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump took aim at former President Barack Obama on Tuesday night, criticizing him while he campaigns on behalf of Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris.

Addressing the recent lack of respect shown to the U.S. by global leaders under Democratic administrations, Trump told his supporters at a rally in Greensboro, North Carolina, that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un viewed Obama as “a real jerk.”

“I think he’s a real jerk because I’ve watched him campaign over the last couple of days,” Trump said during his speech at the Greensboro Coliseum, which was broadcast on the Newsmax2 streaming platform. “What a divider he is. He divided this country. He couldn’t care less, him and his little group of people. He was terrible.

“He’s trying to campaign because [Harris] is incapable of campaigning. So, they send him in to try.”

Trump expressed doubt that Obama’s efforts would have much impact, pointing to the fact that Obama had campaigned for Hillary Clinton in 2016.

“How did that work out? He came out for Hillary,” Trump remarked. “The reason they’re bringing him out — because he doesn’t even want to do it. I think he’s exhausted. I watched him talk, and I think the guy’s exhausted. I never say a guy is looking old, but he’s looking a little bit older isn’t he? You know? Nothing wrong with that. But he’s exhausted.”

Despite his weariness, Obama remains highly popular within the Democratic Party. This week, he campaigned with Harris in Wisconsin and Michigan, with plans to join her at a rally in Georgia on Thursday. Obama has also stumped for Harris and other Democrats in battleground states like Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Arizona.

At his own rally, Trump criticized the current administration under Harris, stating that the U.S. had lost 50,000 manufacturing jobs this year.

“I don’t even mention [President Joe] Biden anymore,” Trump commented. “I don’t even know what the hell is going on there. Who’s running this place? You know, we’re close to a nuclear war, and we don’t know who the hell is running our country.”

A member of the crowd then yelled, “Obama.”

“Obama,” Trump repeated. “That’s another beauty, Obama. He did great didn’t he? If you liked a divided country, he was fabulous. Obama. He was a real beauty.”
