Former US President Barack Obama lashed out at a midterm election campaign rally in Ohio on Saturday. This was the first time he attended a midterm election campaign less than two weeks until election day. He is on the same stage as Democratic gubernatorial candidate Amy Acton and federal senator candidate Sherrod Brown, both of whom are at a standstill. Brown is playing against current Republican Senator Jon Husted. This contest may determine where control of the Senate belongs. In his 40-minute speech, Obama blamed high prices on Trump's decision to launch a war against Iraq. “The rise in oil prices is the reason,” Obama said. “No one denies this.” Obama's statement attracted particular attention. In the past, when he criticized Trump, his language was usually more restrained. At the rally in Ohio, Obama also denounced Trump's continued plans to build a new ballroom in the White House and renovate the interior of the White House. “Gold decorations are everywhere, why get so much gold?” Obama said, “He made the White House look like Saddam Hussein opened a Chillout restaurant.”
