Barack Obama’s Trump-loving half-brother is on Twitter and it’s getting real weird

Obama is a name known the world over...

We all know Barack, we all know Michelle, but many more of us have not heard of a Mr. Malik Obama. Malik Obama is Barack's half-brother through his Kenyan father and, somewhat surprisingly, he is a huge Donald Trump supporter. Once Trump got wind of this, he invited the elder Obama to the second debate and has since made him a part of his campaign team. Though he was born in Kenya, Malik is a naturalised US citizen. Malik Obama has been on Twitter since June 2011, but he's ramped up his Twitter activity as of late  — and some of today's tweets are looking pretty sketchy, including "Michelle wants to run for office but she is very mean" and "I lost a brother but gained my trump family." https://twitter.com/ObamaMalik/status/792170947524427776 https://twitter.com/ObamaMalik/status/792397322479030278 He was verified by Twitter this week, which is very important as he has truly elevated the political discussion. He has called out Hillary Clinton for being "a drunk lying woman", and called one of her key aides Huma Abdein "Not that pretty". https://twitter.com/ObamaMalik/status/792408783687331840 https://twitter.com/ObamaMalik/status/792406047377858560 Beyond politics, there are also just a few gems in there about emails, Elvis and whatever the hell else is going on inside his head. https://twitter.com/ObamaMalik/status/792017526985154561 https://twitter.com/ObamaMalik/status/792016486336303104 https://twitter.com/ObamaMalik/status/792024124122161153 https://twitter.com/ObamaMalik/status/792141092766359552 Ah, 2016. Every few weeks we ask if you can get any crazier and the answer has always been yes. Bravo.
