Trump Slams Obama’s Presidential Library: ‘Hiring Women And DEI’

President Donald Trump used characteristically frank language to describe former President Barack Obama’s unsightly presidential library and museum that is currently under construction in a Chicago suburb.

Trump was asked about the library in the Oval Office on Monday. “He needs help…it’s not too pretty,” Trump said to laughter.

The president went on to say that Obama insisted on “hiring women and DEI” – diversity, equity, and inclusion candidates – to build the structure, which has been beset with a series of delays and massive cost overruns.

He also pointed out that he built “a building” in Chicago – the Trump International Hotel & Tower – claiming that it went up ahead of schedule and on budget. Trump also praised the “Chicago construction workers” who he contracted with to build the structure, calling them among the best in the country.

Monday’s criticisms were not the first from Trump regarding the Obama library. In May, he described the project as “a disaster” being undertaken by “woke” construction workers.

“I mean, look, President Obama — and if he wanted help, I’d give him help because I build on time and on budget — he’s building his presidential library in Chicago. It’s a disaster,” Trump said at the time, per CBS News.
