Malik Obama who is President Barack Obama’s half brother launched a scathing Twitter tirade against him moments before the third and final presidential debate in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The older Obama took to the social media forum to criticise the president on personal and political issues in a series of tweets that resembled those of the Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.
In his rant, which took approximately 23 minutes, Malik went as far as questioning whether the US leader was his brother.
He even offered to take a DNA test and challenged Obama to do the same.
In one of the tweets, he claimed that at one point first lady Michelle Obama made him sleep at a hotel, although he did not specify when this happened.
“I wonder if he is even my brother. He was my best man,” read one of his tweets. “Michelle made me sleep in a hotel”.
Turning to another target, Malik blasted Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, saying she cannot keep the US safe.
He also cited the issue of the emails from her time as secretary of state that she is alleged to have deleted.
“Hillary does not keep us safe. She doesn’t keep her emails safe! She lies and lies and lies. America needs truth!!!” he wrote.
Later, after posting the series of tweets, he joined Trump’s family in the debate hall as a guest of the presidential candidate.
In July this year, he declared his support for Trump and said he would vote for him.
