President Obamas staffers at the White House are having a tough time coming to terms with the phrase President-Elect Donald Trump.
Trump on Thursday visited the White House to meet with Obama to discuss the transition between the two administrations.
Obama has tried to remain positive in his public statements, but the public expressions of his White House staffers paint a grimmer picture.
Staffers, including White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest, can be seen in pictures surfacing on social media solemnly looking on as Trump arrives to meet with Obama. One staffer even appears to be crying in a picture.
On Wednesday, as Obama gave his first public statement after Tuesday nights election, staffers looked on with disbelief that Trump had been elected. David Nakamura of the Washington Post captured the moment as White House staffers sadly watched Obama give his statement.

I am not convinced that any of them would have liked working under Shrillary Clinton, as she is known for her nasty behavior towards underlings. Also- what female would like to be in the White House with randy Bill???

I think you underestimate the degree of a** kissing and groveling to which liberals will go to keep their jobs/power. Knee pads under desks would be fought for.

I watched that video and was utterly shocked at those people. How pathetically juvenile.
Again, I related this to my wife. She said, “Well, Trump did say he was all about stimulating the economy. He’s already doing it...there’s some people that will have to go out an buy some new TV’s.”

Guy in the picture with headphones on and in front of an electronic console is probably the “true voice” of Obama...that is to say...Mr. Teleprompter Operator.

I remember these types of articles after Obama was elected the first time... all the outpouring of sympathy for conservatives who had lost... /s
