Obama Opposes Democrat Richard Cordray in Ohio

Former President Barack Obama imposed Thursday night on Democratic candidate Richard Cordray and other Democrats.

Cordray, the former federal consumer agency, faces Republic Attorney General Mike DeWine in one of the most anticipated governor races of the season. President Trump went to Ohio in August to campaign at a rally for DeWine.

Thursday evening, Obama blew up President Trump and the Republican Party under his command, claiming he had already appealed to less serious instincts.

"They use our tribal instincts, they call fear," Obama said of the GOP. "They are trying to confront each other, they are trying to say security at the border, we will stop people who do not look like us or who look like us." It's a game book as old as time. "

Republican Governor John Kasich has a limited term and Democrats, who are currently out of power at all levels of the Ohio government, hope to win the governorship.

This appearance is part of a movement across the entire country to strengthen Obama's efforts to win House seats and national elections. Obama launched his campaign midway earlier this month with a speech at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champlain. In this speech, he urged people to become active, saying "you must vote because our democracy depends on it".

He also decried the Republican Party, saying that Mr. Trump was a "symptom, but not the cause" of extreme partisanship in the country.

Obama & # 39; s appearance of the second campaign was at a rally in Anaheim, Calif. on Saturday in support of seven Democratic congressional candidates in the predominantly Orange Republican county. He spoke for a much shorter period than in his speech the day before.

"They have stepped up their efforts, they are ready, they are ready to go," Obama said of the candidates, repeating a campaign slogan for his 2008 campaign.

Obama released a video last week describing his case for the midterms.

"We are in an urgent period, we have seen basic norms and principles that have served us well for decades more and more violated, not to mention the policies that have skewed the rich and powerful," Obama said in a statement. video.
