Full title: 'Reality has a way of asserting itself!' Condescending Obama says Trump can't keep his promises as he warns his successor's 'temperament' will be his undoing unless he 'corrects' it

President Barack Obama delivered a series of patronizing backhanded compliments to President-Elect Donald Trump on Monday during a lengthy White House press conference conducted before his final trip abroad as America's leader.

While he praised Trump for pulling off 'one of the biggest political upsets in history,' Obama scolded his Republican successor for believing he can deliver on his campaign promises.

'I think that he successfully mobilized a big chunk of the country to vote for him,' Obama told reporters.

But 'regardless of what experience or assumptions he brought to the office, this office has a way of waking you up.'

'And those aspects of his positions or predispositions that don't match up with reality, he will find shaken up pretty quick. Because reality has a way of asserting itself.'

Guess what Zippy.

GITMO is still open

We are still fighting and losing soldiers in Afghanistan

We didn’t save $2500 on our health insurance

Just a couple off the top of my tied head.

Is Obama pretending HE was actually doing what the people wanted during his long 8 years???? Trump was elected to do the people’s business......and the people want what Trump is going to do.

It’s funny that Trump isn’t even President yet and all signs point to him being committed to keeping his campaign promises. He even said he won’t take the salary. So basically his family is going to run the business, and he’s gonna do one of the most mentally and emotionally taxing jobs in the world not for himself but for every American for at least 4 years.

Guy called a news conference to burnish his resume, which is very thin and will get thinner in the next six months.

He then went on some professorial rant about Trump, like he is a child and will have to grow up pretty quickly.

"The wall just got a little higher".....isn't that what Trump would say in the primary?

I was not a Trump fan nor did I think he would keep one promise but I hope these idiots keep piling this on and piss him off enough to double down. A daily mugging by these idiots to remind him every day who backed him when he is in that cesspool called Washington. Getting along means bowing down to the left.

Obama knows a lot about not keeping promises!

"we will work to lower your premiums by up to $2,500 per family."

Hey a-hole:

The reality is that your legacy is a Trump presidency and a Republican controlled House and Senate. Within one day of Trump assuming office most of your unconstitutional executive orders will be voided. Shortly thereafter the bureaucratic regulatory tyranny you instituted will be dismantled.

Because elections have consequences.

Obama talking as though he’s learned anything over the last eight years is beyond laughable. Stalin raved and railed about everyone else’s failures while he starved millions in the Ukraine. It was a textbook example of how a maniac can function in an alternative reality that never intersects with the most fundamental truth.
