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.

“Trump called Obama “a very good man.”
Somebody get this knife out of my back.
You know what? Don’t even bother.
I hope they vet the replacements so none of them have Demorat leanings.
“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.”
ROTFLOL!
Come ON, enemedia! At least make your lies semi-believable!
I challenge any journalist to understand, much less find, the electrical blue prints for one of these.
Yes August 22 and October 24. One of the themes in the media that was constant was that Trump was finished. Heard it over and over again. They underestimated him and probably still are. Michael Moore now thinks he won’t even last 4 years as President.
Obama is being really stupid. Trump has at least four years to get back at Obama. There’s a lot of things he can be declassified and release that will prove what a traitorous sh*t Obama really is.
Of course Trump would view the staff as coming into an existing company and him as the CEO.
He knew full well he would have to fire every libtard in it.
I ran across a bunch of other incredible covers which I haven’t seen since I no longer even glance at mass media magazines at places that sell them anymore. I’m not going to post them all here but the Feb Esquire cover has him scowling on their cover and has the line Hater in Chief on it. It is just surreal the over the top negativity.
Great.
He could also have a relative babysit Barron for tax & retirement benefits.
He must use several $million (tax payer funded)for family travel to exotic islands.
Melania must wear designer clothes courtesy the tax payers.
Thanks. I never saw those covers when they first came out. It is actually amazing that ANY Republican ever wins the White House, given the relentless hostility of the media. If the press were as pro-Republican as they are pro-Democrat, the Dems might not ever win the Presidency.
Sheer bullshit.
Trump will be attacked by the left and the faux right.
They will be butt hurt about the coup of the peons for years.
Complete BS
Unbelievable how this guy speaks out of both sude of his mouth and once again proves he is pure evil.
Obama...swahili for dick.
Probably true...Trump probably figured he’d have to work at his new job...But with the country jumping golf tourneys and world-wide vacations, there’s not a lot of free time for work...
Noooo Trump was just flabbergasted at the enormous amount of time, money and manpower wasted and flittered away. Astounded at the sheer bureaucracy of the beast.
He was probably shocked at how many jobs he was going to have to eliminate.
And Melania will have to get rid of The Mooch’s 24-26 staff members. Her ladies-in-waiting.
