Former President Barack Obama appeared to fault former President Donald Trump for a recent rise in antisemitic incidents throughout the United States.

In an email interview with Jewish Insider, published on Monday, Obama spoke about “negative and divisive trends” in the aftermath of the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, which led to multiple deaths and created a political shockwave in the country. The 44th president, who referenced a speech he gave at the Embassy of Israel in his last year in office, appeared to suggest Trump’s time in the White House led to a rise in anti-Jewish hate.
