Barack Obama also trashes working class white males in the interview.
The New York Times reported:
President Obama said in a radio interview airing on Monday that Donald J. Trump, a leading contender for the Republican presidential nomination, is exploiting the resentment and anxieties of working-class men to boost his campaign. Mr. Obama also argued that some of the scorn directed at him personally stems from the fact that he is the first African-American to hold the White House.
Demographic changes and economic stresses, including "flatlining" wages and incomes, have meant that "particularly blue-collar men have had a lot of trouble in this new economy, where they are no longer getting the same bargain that they got when they were going to a factory and able to support their families on a single paycheck," Mr. Obama said in the interview with National Public Radio.
"You combine those things, and it means that there is going to be potential anger, frustration, fear - some of it justified, but just misdirected,"

Guess who’s paying all the government bills....the white middle class.
“It begins...”
Rather, it never ends.
Hussein is exploiting Jet A and AF1.
I expect nothing less from our POSPOTUS.
Hussein fails to be nuanced and admit that he is, at best, a Mulatto.
mulatto muslim raised by an atheist....Obama still doesn’t know who or what he is.
Ain't that what you did, home boy?
I’m looking forward to Trump talking down to the Fraud in response.
“.....scorn directed at him personally stems from the fact that he is the first African-American to hold the White House.”.........
Odumbo has earned every damn bit of that scorn. For what he has done to this nation, he may be the last black to be president for some time since has ruined a lot of good potential blacks for that responsibility.
“....in this new economy.”
I guess he finally admits he’s a failure. I think Trump will come back on this big time.
Trump should point out that Obama has divided the country across racial and class.
People are now suspicious of each other more than they have ever been. And the word racism has lost its meaning because it is used way too often — cry wolf.
The Kenyan wouldn’t have lasted six months in the presidency without his Mother of All Race Cards. It made an incompetent, whineyass, spoiled little brat invincible.
The bastard talks as though “demographic changes” are an act of God rather than a personal obsession resulting from his own twisted hatred for those of other races.
bollocks. we've actually taken it easy on him. we impeached bill clinton, and he didn't really do anything.
First Hillary now Obama stepping in it. More free interview time for Trump as he gets to go on TV and address this attack. He will state how well he is doing with minorities, explain how Obama has been a disaster for African Americans..... (unbiased opinion of Cruz supporter)
That would be the rapidly disappearing white middle class. Obama's answer to inequality of income isn't to raise the lower classes, it's to lower the middle class.
0Muslim got fired by the Trump last week ["incompetent president"].
Barky just hasn't figured it out yet.
Maybe The Teleprompter of the United States will clue him in...
