President-elect Donald Trump celebrated his status as a Washington outsider during his campaign for the presidency, but his lack of familiarity with the US government appears to be coming into view as he transitions to the White House.

During Trump's private meeting with President Barack Obama on Thursday, Trump "seemed surprised" by the scope of the president's responsibilities, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal.

Trump's aides were also apparently unaware that the entire staff of the president working in the White House's West Wing would need to be replaced, according to The Journal.

They're so pathetically predictable, aren't they?

Obama, preoccupied as he was thinking Great Thoughts, made an endearing little mistake. Bush, a gazillion times dumber than a single-celled organism, is a serial blunderer and a national embarrassment.

Other president elects have been able to enjoy their victories. The msm has stolen this moment from Trump. They’ll never mention one thing good about him. The one time he says the non-issue p word years ago and they repeat it 24/7 and will for the next 8 years. But they hide every time the obamas disrespect the flag, do drugs, have homosexual frolics, Ayers, the BC and their muslim brotherhood buddies.
