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.

He may not be this guy or yet, but he certainly acts like it:

Daniel 8:23-25 King James Version (KJV)

23 And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up.

24 And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power: and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people.

25 And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart, >>>>and by peace shall destroy many<<<<: he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.

Exquisite timing: ‘ol dimwit is telling us things are peachy just when his Muslim allies are acting up again.

If he doesn’t mind, I’ll stick with Big Don on this one.

Democrats never regret saying or doing anything. The record officially reboots every 24 hours with the help of the media. Up is down. Right is wrong. Good is bad. Kind is mean. Fact is false.

Anything they say in front of anyone with their wallets open is only allowed to be heard after signing non-disclosure agreements to be accompanied by six figures on the check.

They'll try, but modern Internet access has eliminated that advantage, especially given the way Trump MASTERFULLY used social media and got the MSM to effectively do his bidding--he ran a pauper's campaign that has easily equaled the massive amount of money Hillary Clinton has spent fighting off Bernie Sanders AND fighting off Trump's accurate attacks on her.

Obama’s stupid remarks show he’s not living in the real world. Perhaps the doom and gloom doesn’t match HIS reality.

“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 out of his ass.
