On the trail over the last few months, Trump has said "Obama" multiple times when he appears to be referring to Biden, drawing attention from his detractors, including Trump's Republican rivals and Biden's aides, who are increasingly trying to spotlight Trump's own gaffes as age continues to be a central issue in the 2024 election.
Most recently at an event on Veterans Day in Claremont, New Hampshire, Trump called Obama the "current president" while talking about former Fox News host Tucker Carlson's interview with Hungarian leader Viktor Orban.
Trump has hurt his case by repeatedly misstating which president he’s running against in November.
“Putin has so little respect for Obama that he’s starting to throw around the nuclear word,” Trump said at a rally in Richmond, Virginia, on March 2, 2024, naming his predecessor when he clearly meant Biden.
