President Donald Trump took a moment Sunday morning to take swipes at both former President Barack Obama and his former rival, Hillary Clinton.
He began by tweeting “Happy Anniversary!” to Clinton, along with a video clip of her on the 2016 campaign trail. That video, dated September 9, 2016, showed Clinton coining the phrase “basket of deplorables” to describe supporters of then-candidate Donald Trump.

For good measure, he included the hashtag #ProudDeplorable.
He then set his sights on former President Barack Obama, who has recently hit the campaign trail on behalf of his fellow Democrats. Quoting former U.S. Rep. Jason Chaffetz, Trump tweeted, “Barack Obama talked a lot about hope, but Donald Trump delivered the American Dream.”
“Barack Obama talked a lot about hope, but Donald Trump delivered the American Dream. All the economic indicators, what’s happening overseas, Donald Trump has proven to be far more successful than Barack Obama. President Trump is delivering the American Dream.” Jason Chaffetz
