Former President Barack Obama subtly knocked his successor, President Donald Trump on Thursday, while explaining the importance of taking in refugees and immigrants in need. He also borrowed a slogan from World War II-era Nazi sympathizers as an official tagline for his presidency: America First. Other topics that that came up at Thursday’s event were defense spending, religion, and education― all issues that Trump and Obama tend to disagree on. Trump, on the hand, has clashed with Merkel on many key issues and has a negative approval rating among Germans. Merkel was due to meet with Trump at a NATO summit later on Thursday.
