'Let's leave that for another time': Trump abruptly stops mid-way during Obama attack

WASHINGTON, DC: President Donald Trump abruptly stopped himself just before a possible nasty insult during his wild rant against former President Barack Obama on Monday, July 13.

During an appearance on Fox News’s ‘Fox and Friends’, the president criticized his predecessors for their handling of Iran, mainly targeting Obama.

Trump held back remark while criticizing Obama

President Donald Trump interrupted himself while criticizing former President Barack Obama, appearing to stop before making a possible insulting remark about his predecessor.

Trump quickly moved on before apparently using harsh remarks against Obama over his administration's Iran policy.

However, he revived longstanding claims about the cash payment sent to Tehran and accused both Obama and former President Joe Biden of strengthening Iran.

“Look for 47 years, they’ve been tapping people along — every president got tapped along, didn’t do anything,” Trump said.

“And they became more and more powerful. This should have been done 47 years ago, shouldn’t have been allowed to start. But Clinton let them go, and Bush let them go. Everybody let them go. And Obama was the worst of all, because Obama actually went to their side,” he added.

But just as he accused Obama of having gone to Iran’s “side” with his nuclear deal, Trump stopped himself from going even further.

“You know he’s a… well… let’s not say,” Trump said. “Let’s not say, let’s leave that for another time. He was terrible.”

Trump accuses Obama of sending cash to Iran

Despite stopping himself from using a particular remark against Obama, Trump had a lot more to say against him. “He gave them 1.7 billion in cash, in green cash, in satchels in an airplane and brought it to Iran,” Trump said.

Trump further said the Obama administration went to Tehran with a Boeing filled with cash.

“It took up an entire Boeing 75, and they flew it to Tehran, and they gave it to people that were waiting at a plane. Can you imagine these people?" he continued.

"They never saw money, and now all of a sudden they’ve got 1.7 billion in cash. And he gave them hundreds of billions of dollars in cash and everything else, and he went to their side,” Trump added, lashing out at Obama.

“And Biden, who was the vice president. But he probably had nothing to say because he was such a stupid person,” he said.
