Trump, in reference to their escalating feud on the 2016 election, tweeted that he is “doing [his] best to disregard the many inflammatory President O statements and roadblocks.”

“Thought it was going to be a smooth transition,” the President-elect added. “NOT!”

In a Monday interview with David Axelrod, Obama said that he would have defeated Trump had he hypothetically sought a third term.

Naturally, Trump took issue with Obama’s comments, but many — including former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee — argued that Obama’s dig was actually aimed at Hillary Clinton. (VIDEO: ‘What An Insult’ — Huckabee Says Hillary Should Be FURIOUS With Obama)

“If I were Hillary Clinton, I would be livid that the president was making those statements,” Huckabee said on Fox News Tuesday. “Let’s not forget that he went out there and was giving a full-throated support for Hillary. He couldn’t push her over the top.”
