Trump Calls for Arrest of Obama, Accuses Him of Treason
Donald Trump continued his sustained criticism of former President Barack Obama in a series of posts on his social media platform, Truth Social, on May 13, 2026. According to Unilad, this represents a continuation of a pattern in which the current president has targeted political opponents through over 50 posts. In one post, Trump labeled Obama “the most demonic forces in American politics in decades.” He advocated for the arrest and prosecution of Obama, alleging “treason, high treason and a plot to overthrow the United States Government.” The former president was specifically named as the initial target for legal action.
The post included a claim originating from a pro-Trump online profile asserting that Obama had engaged in such activities. Details of this claim were not immediately available for independent verification. This latest statement from Trump regarding Obama follows a period of heightened rhetoric from the current president concerning his predecessors and political rivals.
The accusations remain unsubstantiated and are being met with widespread condemnation from political figures and commentators.
