Obama: Donald Trump won't be president and shouldn't be given the nuclear codes
The Los Angeles Times ^ | February 16, 2016

Donald Trump "will not be president" despite his commanding lead in the Republican field, President Obama flatly declared Tuesday, bluntly questioning Trump's temperament while asserting that a restive electorate would ultimately make a "sensible choice."

It was Obama's most scathing assessment of the Republican nomination battle to date as he argued that Trump's views were the norm, not the exception, in the Republican Party, and that the front-runner had no business being given access to nuclear weapons or deciding how to prevent a banking crisis.

"Whoever is standing where I'm standing right now has the nuclear codes with them, and can order 21-year-olds into a firefight," he said, "and have to make sure that the banking system doesn't collapse and is often responsible for not just the United States of America but 20 other countries that are having big problems or are falling apart and are going to be looking for us to do something....

Guess what 2015? I don't have to explain myself to you.

That's right, 2ndDV's reason for posting this thread should be obvious, he's got one world class case of *BUTT HURT* after Trump carried all but 3 counties in South Carolina and won all 44 delegates.

If there is anyone on the planet who should NOT have the nuclear codes NOR top secret info it is this human waste named 0bemba.

Irrelevant and immaterial. I’ve seen some Cruzers take the last train to Zotville as well.

Do you have a point to make?

Well, I didn’t post this due to “butthurt” or whatever you call it. It hadn’t been posted here even though it happened last week. Period. Everything is not a conspiracy against Trump. Don’t be like the Ronulans.

“He doesn’t say “Trump shouldn’t be President”, he says directly “Trump will not be President”. That is very disturbing.”

42 posts before someone noticed the “will not”.

When you have Obama and the Pope shooting off their mouths in the same week, it’s no wonder Trump spent so little on ads.

Well, Trump just grew his lead by another couple of points. He ought to send a thank you card to this dipshit in the WH and Cruz should downplay the remarks.

“where I’m standing right now has the nuclear codes with them, and can order 21-year-olds into a firefight”

The jackass doesn’t know that it could be 18 year olds. Even a rare 17 year old.

1,000 votes in a medium-sized state is essentially a tie, although Fox News won’t see it that way.

I think he’s showing his hand in a different way. I think he’s warning us that he has nuclear capabilities and the economy could collapse at any time.

I suspect that the plan is for an EMP attack in November or December, to make sure that NOBODY succeeds him - in accordance with his statement in July of 2008 that he would be POTUS for “the next 8 to 10 years”.
