Obama: Trump's doom-and-gloom doesn't match reality
CNN ^ | 7/22/2106 | Kevin Liptak

The deeply pessimistic outlook that Donald Trump offered at this week's Republican National Convention doesn't match reality, President Barack Obama insisted on Friday.

Noting he didn't watch Trump's prime-time acceptance speech on Thursday -- "I've got a lot of stuff to do" -- Obama said he read news coverage of the remarks. And he said they didn't match most Americans' experiences.

"This idea that America is somehow on the verge of collapse, this vision of violence and chaos everywhere, doesn't really jibe with the experience of most people," Obama said during a press conference in the White House East Room alongside Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto.

In other news, days after the Nice, France attack where over 80 people were killed by terrorists, another terrorist attack has taken place today in Munich, Germany where at least 15 people have been killed.

This is not doom and gloom. Things are going really,really well!

In Obama’s mind, he attended an anti-gun rally.

Stuff like this (above) might be fine with Obama...but it isn't with most Americans. And...it's happening too often.

A few of Obama’s sons active in Munich today.
The answer of course is more blind Sharia worshiping immigrants.

When Obama says something like this it’s a signal for an attack some place in the World

According to some of the fact-check threads this morning, most of the ‘facts’ were pretty accurate.

Of course, Obama has used that tactic before — saying things are such and so — and the compliant media just goes along with those lies.

Dead police.
Tuberculosis.
Hasan.
ISIS.
Arming al Qaeda.
Releasing rapists.
Fast&Furious
Importing PROVEN terrorists SECRETLY.

In any other country that did not suffer the odious
lying, complicit, voter-hating treasonous
GOP scum like Ryan and McConnell, Obama would have
been impeached, investigated, indicted and imprisoned.

Let’s ask the dead Dallas police officers if Trump’s speech matches reality.

Let’s ask the dead black people of Chicago if trump’s speech matches reality.

Let’s ask Kate Steinle if Trump’s speech matches reality.

You don’t match reality, Obama. You are a nightmare that we are going to wake up from.
