President Barack Obama in his most emphatic terms yet disputed the idea that Donald Trump will win this presidential election.
I recognize that there is a deep obsession right now about Mr. Trump, Obama told attendees of a Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee fundraiser Thursday evening in Santa Monica, California. And one of you pulled me aside and squeezed me hard and said, Tell me that Mr. Trump is not succeeding you. And I said, Mr. Trump is not succeeding me.
Obama credited Trump and his primary rival, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, for exposing some of the nonsense that weve been dealing with in Congress on a daily basis.
People act as if these folks are outliers. But theyre not, Obama said, pointing to what Republicans in general say during interviews, on talk radio and in town halls. Theyre saying stuff thats just as wacky as what were hearing out of the presidential candidates. Its just nobody was paying attention.

This is great news considering that everything Obama touches turns to crap and everything he says is always the complete opposite!

Democrats always want to choose the Republican candidate, hence the polls showing how Trump can’t win.

this POS should have never ever been elected in the first place , let alone twice . His name and tenure are a stain on U.S. history

You can always tell who Liberals fear the most - it's the one they attack the most.
It's Trump!
To: Mozilla
Trump is living inside Obambi’s head already. He must be scared of indictment.

Unless being elected President instantly bestows the winner with the power of prophecy, you don’t know that, Mr. Obama.
Is that what you’re telling us, that you are now omnipotent?
I didn’t think so!
To: Mozilla
To me, that is the best endorsement a candidate against Hillary could ever, ever have.
