Obama: Donald Trump’s Record ‘Needs To Be Examined’…

Coming from a man whose records have been sealed.

Via MSNBC:

President Barack Obama on Friday said presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has a “long record that needs to be examined” and insisted that the race for the White House is “not a reality show.”

“I think I just want to emphasize the degree to which we are in serious times and this is a serious time, this is not entertainment, this is not a reality show. This is a contest for the presidency of the United States, ” Obama told reporters in his first public comments about since Trump’s GOP rivals ended their presidential campaigns.

Obama also said the media needs to play a role in vetting the candidates policies and not focus of the “circus.”

“If they take a position on international issues that could threaten war, or has the potential of upending our critical relationships with other countries, or would potentially break the financial system, that needs to be reported on,” Obama said in the White House briefing room.

Obama has previously been critical of Trump’s foreign policy statements, saying they show the former reality television star doesn’t know much about “the world generally.”

I always love the commies throwing the word “president” in front of Zero’s name, as if that adds seriousness and legitimacy to their propaganda.

To which I would reply to Obama, the last 7 years your administration has been a surreal perverse unreality show!

I would like to add that every candidate for president also be required to undergo the process for a high-level security clearance; if they fail, he/she cannot take office. This would have excluded Bill Clinton. Also under no circumstances, must Article II, I, 5 ever be violated again.

I keep hearing talk of the current/recent Constitutionally-ineligible candidates trying for a VP slot or trying for another POTUS run in the future.

Barry was never vetted by the media, and his college records, Illinois legislative record have been sealed, yet claims to be the most transparent.

On the car radio that’s all I hear.

“The President”

“The President”

“The President”

As if they are trying to convince you that he is the president.

Gasbag Josh Earnest does that too.

“The President”

“The President”

“The President”

No one screaming witch hunt?

The terrorist gestapo is in charge. Forget Hillary’s emails and Clinton Foundation rip offs.
