The president had fun at the expense of the GOP contenders who complained about the CNBC moderators....
.....“Candidates tough talk about Putin,†Obama said, referring to the various foreign policy assertions of Republican presidential contenders, including Donald Trump, who has boasted that U.S. relations with Russia would improve under his administration.
“They say, when I talk to Putin, he’s going to straighten out … And then it turns out they can’t handle a bunch of CNBC moderators,†the president said, according to a pool report. “If you can’t handle those guys, I don’t think the Chinese and the Russians are going to be too worried about you,†he continued.

Missing the point is the TRUTH that Putin IS kicking the little one all over the world stage AND the fact that the Republicans are doing more than complaining about the media--they are CHANGING THE FORMAT of the debate.
In other words, the Republicans are taking actions to WIN, while Valerie's charge is LOSING.
Ted Cruz and Donald Trump have chunks of guys like obama in their stool.
Obama handles all foreign leaders pretty much the same - on his knees with his mouth open.
This is actually revealing. It shows what bugs him.
“Tell him that his jest savors but a shallow wit”
Rich, coming from a guy who reacts to Fox news like Dracula reacts to a cross.
Lol at Barry Soetero talking like he’s a tough guy with Putin and Xi..... !
Bingo!!!! Insightful comment.
You tell ‘em, Frank!
Obama wouldn’t last 30-seconds were he subjected to the same treatment by the media that Republicans have to endure.
Ummm...they actually DID handle the CNBC moderators.
They kicked their @sses, took names and turned the tables on them.
AND .... since you mentioned it ..... look at how YOU couldn't even handle Mitt Romney ... you needed Candy Crowley to bail your a*# out!
Barry Soetero lacks the skill, knowledge and expertise to scrape the Obama from the bottom of Cruz, Carson, Trump’s shoes.
: )
They kicked their @sses, took names and turned the tables on them.
Exactly!
What a tiny man we have as president.
What an idiot.
The candidates are not complaining because they don’t want TOUGH questions.
The candidates want all questions relevant to the people of America regarding their plans on leading the nation, including some tough questions on tough issues. This is also what voters wanted - they are making important decisions!
What they objected to was being dragged in for what was supposed to be a serious debate, but was actually an ambush by the hate-filled left designed to portray them to the public as a bunch of losers.
If the GPS had done their job this wouldnt be an issue. They had no business holding the debate on any NBC station.
