Former President Barack Obama is sick of Donald Trump's shit, and he took a minute to mock his age and his fear of insignificance during a speaking tour in Europe. At O2 in Dublin, Obama did not hold back.

"Yeah, well, you know, also, especially young people, because it's fair to say that 80% of the world's problems involve old men hanging on and who are afraid of death and insignificance, and they won't let go," he said. "And, you know, they build pyramids and they put their names on everything, and they just, they get very, they're very anxious about it."

"History is not short of those figures, sadly, neither is the present," he added.

On BlueSky, Obama is jumping in on the redistricting fight.

Republicans can’t win on their policies, so they are trying to dodge accountability by rewriting the rules. These lawmakers are going out of their way to silence the will of the people and deliberately undermine our democracy.

He wasn't done. He also told the audience on Wednesday that the Tylenol and autism nonsense from Trump was "violence against the truth."

We have people in power making broad claims around certain drugs and autism that have been continuously disproven.

The degree to which those comments can undermine public health, do harm to women who are pregnant, create anxiety for parents who do have children who are autistic – is violence against the truth.

In case MAGA can't understand what Obama was saying (and I'm not as eloquent as the former president is), let's help them out. He's fucking old, and he's afraid to die as he clings to life in hopes of achieving some significance. And that's why he plasters his stupid fucking name all over buildings. And the part Obama didn't mention is that because of this, Trump is a demented old loser with nothing to offer mankind. I said what I said.

Can you help us out?
