President Donald Trump reacted to former President Barack Obama’s criticism of his administration’s COVID-19 response, calling his predecessor “grossly incompetent.”

Trump was asked by a reporter after returning to the White House from Camp David on May 17 what he thought of Obama’s apparent suggestion, during a virtual speech on May 16, that many in the current administration “aren’t even pretending to be in charge.”
