Obama speaks at Capital University for early voting event

The president drew comparisons between the nominees, criticizing Trump at almost every point of the speech

President Barack Obama bashed Donald Trump during an early voting event a week before the election on behalf of Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton at Capital University.

Obama criticized Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump repeatedly throughout the speech, drawing comparisons between Clinton and Trump.

"Trump says he knows what he's talking about because he's got a good brain, who talks like that?" Obama said. "We can't afford a president whose 'brain' has suggested that we should torture people again, or ban entire religions from our country, or talks down to our mothers, or talks down to our troops and our veterans. Even a Republican senator said we can't afford to give the nuclear codes to somebody so erratic."

The president praised Clinton as having conducted herself “so much better in public life than [Trump].”

Obama said that Ohio was central to his campaign in his past presidential elections. Obama won Ohio in both of his campaigns for president.
