President Barack Obama doesn’t expect he’ll “suddenly just vanish” once Donald Trump takes office on Jan. 20. He also doesn’t expect to keep quiet if his successor’s administration impedes on the “core values” of the United States.
Remarking on Trump’s proposed ban on Muslims, Obama on Monday’s The Daily Show told Trevor Noah that he will “have to say something” if Trump follows through on his campaign promise, or insists on a registry of all Muslims currently living the United States.
“If I thought a Muslim registry was being set up that violates the Constitution, violates who we are, and would make us less safe because it would make it easier for groups like [ISIS] to recruit and radicalize homegrown terrorists, I might have to say something about that,” he said.
Obama’s first Daily Show interview since Jon Stewart’s departure also touched on Russia’s alleged election tampering, the future of the Affordable Care Act and attempting to navigate the nation’s racial divide. An extended cut, clocking in at 22 minutes, can be seen its entirety here.
Cause he’ll be the 1st name on the list!
I Will ‘Say Something’
You mean like the IRS list of tea partiers? Kinds like that?
Who is this “Obama” guy?
Will he draw a line in the sand or something? He’s such a punk.
So what? BO yaps all the time, who listens?
The Constitution? He’s going to comment on the Constitution now? My German Shepherd knows more about the Constitution than BO does and he doesn’t even speak English.
If a past President interferes with the current Administration, is that considered to be SEDITION?
IIIIII ME ME ME ME ME
It’s quite fitting really, that Obama appears on the Daily Show on Comedy Central. After all, he is a joke.
Just imagine if Trump’s middle name was Oleg or something like that. You think the left would get the vapors like they did for Hussein at the suggestion that it might convey something about where his sympathies lie?
Did whichever idiot is currently hosting the "Daily Show" ask Obama to "say something" about the muslim registry his administration has been maintaining for the last eight years?
Bet he would have really given FDR a piece of his pea brained opinion. He can’t grasp he is irrelevant.
LMAO!
Im hoping that some of the past rumors about him are confirmed and made public shaming him to stfu and go away. Big hope I know.
“Where do I register”?
I was gonna ask—before or after he registers?
Not unlike the Eagles “ I’m already gone”. Obama just does not know it!
We are not a muslim country, dorkbama.
We do not want them beheading people, blowing things up, genitally mutilating women or subjugating the rest of us.
If they want to do those things as their prophet has commanded them, they have to leave.
Don’t dare cross Obama’s red line!!!
