Election 2020 updates: Trump claims he saved Big Ten football, slams Obama

Former President Barack Obama campaigned in Miami Saturday at a drive-in rally for his former vice president, Joe Biden, and slammed President Donald Trump for "treating the presidency like a reality show.

"He hasn’t shown any interest in doing the work," Obama said.

"We literally left this White House a pandemic playbook that showed them how to respond before a virus reached our shores," he said.

"The rest of us have to live with the consequences of what he's done. At least 220,000 Americans are dead. More than 100,000 small businesses have closed," Obama said. "You think he's hard at work coming up with a plan to get us out of this mess?"

Obama also slammed Trump for bashing the press. "If you're spending all your time complaining about how mean reporters are to you, you're not going to stand up to Putin," Obama said.

"With Joe and Kamala [Harris] at the helm, you won't have to think about them every single day," Obama said. "It won't be so exhausting. Just having a normal president."

Obama also called out Republicans for trying to repeal the Affordable Care Act without presenting a replacement.

"When they're asked about it, they say 'Well, look, we're going to have a great replacement. It's coming. It's going to be here in two weeks,'" Obama said. "It's been 10 years now, and every two weeks they say they've got a replacement."

In response to former Vice President Joe Biden, who warned of a "dark winter" due to the pandemic, President Donald Trump said Saturday, "we gotta have spirit."

The U.S. on Friday saw its highest daily number of COVID-19 cases since the pandemic began. "If we tested half cases would be half," the president argued, despite the fact that cases would still exist even if undetected.

Trump expressed his exhaustion with hearing about COVID-19 cases, repeating the word "COVID" 10 times in a matter of seconds, mocking the coverage of the pandemic.

"That's all I hear about now. That’s all I hear ... COVID COVID COVID COVID COVID COVID, a plane goes down, 500 people that they don't talk about it. COVID COVID COVID COVID, by the way, on November 4 you won't hear about it anymore," he said to his roughly few thousand supporters gathered in the sun not socially distanced. Not many wore masks even though some people had masks dangling from their necks.

The presidential race is in a dead-heat contest in North Carolina, where Biden has 49% support among likely voters in a new ABC News/Washington Post poll in the state, while Trump has 48% support.

Trump narrowly won North Carolina in 2016.

Former Vice President Joe Biden said on the "Pod Save America" podcast that Trump will accept the results of the election and he's "not worried about any coup."

"I guarantee you, he'll accept the results, and he'll be out in -- there's no one gonna stick with him," Biden told hosts Dan Pfeiffer and Jon Lovett in an interview taped Friday and posted Saturday morning.
