President Trump took a shot at his predecessor, former President Barack Obama, in remarks he delivered on economic policy at The Economic Club of New York luncheon on Tuesday.
PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: When you hear that I'm not so popular in various countries, please don't accept that as, gee, he doesn't have a good personality. Just realize what I'm trying to do for you.(snip)
They recently came out with a poll that President Obama is much more popular in Germany than I am. I said my guess what? He should be. He should be.
(LAUGHTER)
The day I'm more popular than him, you know I'm not doing my job. Let's put it that way.
(APPLAUSE)
Because we are treated very badly by countries. They take advantage of us and they have for many, many years. It's hard to break that cycle.
We're breaking it and we're getting along with them, believe it or not. I think they respect us far more today than they ever have if you want to know the truth.

Like I said, I had no reservation at all in supporting Trump in 2016, because I know he is WELL BETTER (light years better) than Obama AND Hillary.
I was only mildly concerned that he would turn squishy after he got elected. But once I saw how he (and the people who elected him) were treated by the other half of the country, I knew there is no way Trump will be like all other Republican Quislings.
Because. Trump fights. Esp. he fights FOR HIS PEOPLE.
Obama was never eligible.
He was born a British subject and Kenyan national because of his foreign national father.
The children of foreign nationals are NOT natural born citizens.
President Trump is more popular in the United States (when counting legal U.S. citizens), than was President Obama.
Don’t sit around beating this very dead horse. Everybody knew Obama wasn’t a natural born or any other kind of citizen. But the problem was not just with his papers, it was the fact that Obama continued to identify with countries other than his own. He was the president and he hated this country.
That’s precisely why we should never allow that to happen again.
LOL
“But the problem was not just with his papers”
No, the problem is that he was not, an Article II natural born citizen qualified to be POTUS. His ascension was a BLATANT violation of the constitution.
What really made the rat smelly was that it seemed to be impossible to get SCOTUS to exercise it’s Article III oversight on a heretofore unadjudicated matter, and render an opinion on who is actually eligible, despite dozens of requests for certiorari.
This is NOT a small technicality. The NBC provision was intended as a safeguard against undue foreign influence on the office of POTUS. particularly from a father who owed allegiance to a foreign sovereignty.
We have enough natural born globalists without allowing those who don’t even meet the basic qualifications in the mix too.
