Obama on Trump

[TexasRules]

"I continue to believe that Mr. Trump will not be president, and the reason is I have a lot of faith in the American people," he said. "I think they recognize that being president is a serious job — it's not hosting a talk show or reality show. It's not promotion or marketing. It's hard, and a lot of people count on us for getting it right."

I am not a fan of Donald Trump. It's scary that the cult of personality can sweep an incompetent narcissist into the White House just because they find him entertaining. And if anybody would know about that, it’s Barack Obama.

Serious like being interviewed by a youtube star:

So you're trying to compare Trump to Obama?

[GodlyBob]

I like this thread. Obama said something I agree with. I hate Trump. Obama is Trump.

really pulling a muscle with this reach.

So Obama is an "incompetent narcissist" according to you? Interesting.

Not sure if this is a troll? Is that what you took away from it? Is it? I missed where I compared Trump at any point, so not sure if you are trolling or if you really can't figure this out.

The plot thickens...

Well Trump responded with:

“Let me tell you, I built a great company, one of the great companies, some of the great assets in the world, very little debt and tremendous cash flow. It’s the thinking our country needs. We need a different thinking than guys like we have right now,” Trump argued.

Trump insisted that Obama is “going to go down as one of the worst, perhaps the worst president in the history the United States, and he certainly wouldn’t like to see me. And you know, it’s interesting, when they make those statements, that means that in a way it’s a badge of honor because that’s the one that they’re looking at.”

Not at all, someone who as President decided that slow jamming the news was a valuable use of his time really doesn't have much ground to stand on when criticizing Trump, or any other candidate.

Shhhhhh Carter did that all the time. You just don't understand that Obama can do no wrong in some people's eyes. They will defend him against any and all attacks.

if it was someone other than Trump, I'd be tempted to agree.

or IDK come up with better attacks? maybe? not even a fan of Obama and I find this limp wristed.

Look at the source the criticism is coming from though....

if that's the best you got compared to Trump you may want to try harder.

Agreed. Obama has no room to talk for his shenanigans.

Trump can be President for the same reason Obama became President, foolish people vote.

I'm at work, so I don't have time to dig back through all the stupid lookatme moments of Obama to recite, so one good fire and forget is enough, as you can see the OP plus others have chimed in so you get examples from elsewhere.

Nice attempt at subterfuge. I see how acolytes will try to defend no matter what, but I don't see how anyone can defend obama on this. The Bear Grylls thing is the worst against his argument.

Take the hint. While I agree with you, they will never ever raise a word against our savior Obama. Trying to get them to is a wasted effort.

[TexasRules]

Perhaps that's because your post did a shitty job of explaining it.

Obama did these things after he went for the presidency.
That makes him a politician that uses entertainment for promotion.

Whereas Trump is trying to use politics to earn more money.

Those dumb YouTube links have nothing to do with anything Obama said about Trump.

Is this more trolling? I can't tell when obama acolytes are being serious. Obama says you have to be serious and not do reality shows after he went on the reality show with bear grylls and you think my example providing does not explain it and has nothing to do with it?

[Stormspellz]

So apparently Op doesn't understand politicians need to go out and promote themselves, and equates a politicians doing promotions with what trump is.
