President Donald Trump did not hesitate to claim that former President Barack Obama orchestrated a "coup" to rig the 2016 election, casting a shadow over his successor in the White House, Newsmax reported on Tuesday, the 22nd.

Trump told reporters in the Oval Office during the visit of Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. that "he is guilty" and that "this is treason," speaking off the cuff.

He said, "This is every word you can think of. They tried to steal the election. During a press conference in the Oval Office with Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., he made impromptu remarks, saying, 'He is guilty.'" "They did things that you wouldn't even imagine in other countries."

Trump told Marcos Jr., "You've seen some pretty tough countries, but you haven't seen anything like this. And we have all the documents."

Tulsi Gabbard, Director of National Intelligence, outlined a roadmap for an investigation into a Russian collusion plot that would involve former President Obama, suggesting that more investigations are likely to follow.

Trump said, "According to what Tulsi told me, there are thousands of additional documents. It was President Obama's idea and his concept. But he also got it from Hillary Clinton, who is crooked as a three-dollar bill."

Trump said, "Hillary Clinton and her group, the Democrats, paid Christopher Steele $12 million to produce a completely fake report. It took two years to find that out, but it turned out to be a completely fake report."

"It was a fabricated report, and they used it. The one thing they couldn't do, and the only thing I respect about the media over the years, is that they didn't write the story before the election," he added.

Trump said, "This is irrefutable evidence that Obama was the instigator, that Obama tried to instigate a coup. But Obama led it... he led it, and the newspapers say so. Everything has come out. This is the biggest scandal in the history of the United States."

He added, "This goes all the way to Otto Pen." This implies that the investigation connects to former President Joe Biden.

Trump said, "What they did in 2016, starting in 2016 and going through the 2020 election, they tried to rig elections and got caught. And there must be very serious consequences for that."

He said, "You know what? When we caught Hillary Clinton, I said, let's not go too far. She's a former president's wife. I thought it was terrible. So I let her go, and I think it was a good thing."

According to Reuters, the office of former President Barack Obama stated that "nothing in the documents released by Gabbard undermines the widely accepted conclusion that Russia sought to influence the 2016 presidential election but was unsuccessful in manipulating the vote."

Nevertheless, Trump said, "Whether what they did to me was right or wrong, it's time to go after people now. Obama got caught himself. So people say, 'Oh, it's a group.' It's not a group, it's Obama. His orders are written down on paper. The papers are signed. The papers came right out of the office."

He added, "They sent all the papers classified as top secret. Top secret was released. And what they did in 2016 and 2020 is very criminal. It's the highest level of crime. So that's what you should be talking about."
