Obama said, “I’m here to tell you that the truth is nobody fully understands the challenges of the job of president until you’ve actually sat behind the desk. Everybody’s got an opinion, but nobody actually knows the job until you’re sitting behind the desk. Everybody can tweet, but nobody actually knows what it takes to do the job until you’ve sat behind the desk. I mean Sasha tweets, but she doesn’t think that she’s there by be sitting behind the desk.”
Donald Trump has used more words on Twitter to defend his use of anti-Semitic attacks on Hillary Clinton than President Obama needed to perfectly describe Trump as an unfit and unqualified disaster.
Obama was just pitching woo to potential voters. The President knows better than any other human being what it is like to sit behind the desk in the Oval Office and make decisions in the year 2016 as the leader of the world’s only superpower.
President Obama knows a pretender when he sees one, and Trump is pretending to be a potential president. Obama busted Trump for treating the Republican nomination like it is another one of his reality television shows.
Obama is the real deal, and he needed less than two dozen words to expose Trump as fake and a fraud.
