Former US President Barack Obama has warned that the actions of the incumbent president, Donald Trump, threatens the US democracy.
Obama made this known while giving a eulogy at the emotional funeral service in Atlanta of civil rights leader John Lewis, as he condemned Trump’s use of federal agents against protesters and his attempts at voter suppression in the United States. Obama said;“We can witness our federal government sending agents to use tear gas and batons against peaceful demonstrators,” the former president said.
“Even as we sit here, there are those in power who are doing their darndest to discourage people from voting by closing polling locations and targeting minorities and students with restrictive ID laws and attacking our voting rights with surgical precision, even undermining the postal service in the run-up to an election that’s going to be dependent on mail-in ballots so people don’t get sick,” he said.
