Obama's half brother rips Biden-Harris agenda while hyping second Trump term: 'We're going to win'
Former President Obama’s half brother is backing former President Trump for president and spoke to Fox News Digital about why he left the Democratic Party and why he believes Trump is "going to win" in November.
"I'm supporting President Trump. I've been a supporter, a supporter since 2016. I like him," Malik Obama told Fox News Digital on Monday. "I like the way he comes across. I like his demeanor. I like his straightforwardness. And I think he's good for the country. And, he put the country back on course. Yes. I'm a Republican, so he's my nominee."
Malik and Barack are both sons of Barack Hussein Obama Sr. and Malik was the best man at Barack’s 1992 wedding, although the two have grown estranged since.
"The main thing is making America strong, you know, in the eyes of the world. And Trump is a strong person. He's known for his mettle, his strength and I like that," Malik said. "He's a no-nonsense guy. He's a businessman, so he knows, you know, how to run a big organization. And the Democrats, I fell out with them because they're hypocrites."

Obama explained that the hypocrisy that made him leave the Democratic Party involved the way Democrats have treated Trump and Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.
"They've been treating Mr. President Trump horribly," Obama said. "I'm not seeing anything like that in my life. You know, they're going after him for, you know, going through tooth and nail. But using the judiciary to try to lock him up and keep him off the ballot, and I've not seen anything like that in my life. So the way they're treating a former president of the United States of America is despicable to me."
