U.S. President Barack Obama urged Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump to "stop whining" about the Nov. 8 election being rigged, saying no serious person could suggest U.S. elections could be manipulated because of their decentralized nature.

"I have never seen in my lifetime, or in modern political history, any presidential candidate trying to discredit the elections and the election process before votes have even taken place. It's unprecedented," the Democratic president said.

‘It’s unprecedented’

Wonder why?

Good question, she’s been off the campaign schedule for some time. Other’s are picking up the slack for her. She is definitely laying low. I have a feeling she will not be doing any more campaigning. She can not risking any more negative attention.

Obama is used to winning elections, the Chicago way, like how JFK and he became president.

If Obama/Clintoon were not planning on massive voter fraud, he would not say anything to Trump re illegal voting.

Trump is working three steps ahead of them.

As usual.

It’s obvious that in calling the election “rigged,” Trump meant registration fraud (illegal aliens and other non-citizens, plus dead people)), voting machine tampering, missing votes, and a complicit, biased Media. Plus there is the precedence of previous elecitons. The Nixon/Kennedy race of 1960 comes to mind.In other words, “rigged election” is an all-encompassing term.

He is the most petulant, un-presidential president we’ve ever had.

So I guess the Dems consider Dan Rolle to be one of those "no serious person" types too, right?

Barack Obama has to be so stupid as to wish to appear a fool. He knows these Veritas videos are out. Sure, say that the videos are fake but at this point we KNOW his team has rigged elections. So he looks double stupid for being ok with looking really stupid.

This is an amazing statement of projection, and the level of denial would otherwise be amazing if I hadn’t seen “Clinton Cash” and Dinesh D’Souza’s movies.

My first instinct has been to get angry every time I think of the name Obama. Now if he’s attacking Trump all the more so.

Then I got to thinking. Isn’t it great when Obama trashes Trump?

It means he thinks Trump will be the worst thing that could happen. It means he thinks Trump will undo his chicanery. It means that Trump will not continue Obama’s policies.

It also means, Hillary will.

So rant on Obama. It’s best free publicity Trump could wish for.

Yell it loud! Yell it clear! Tell the American public, every last person how bad you think Trump is.

I double dog dare you!

Rochester knows they are rigged. That’s how he won. He gets offended when the demos are called out on it.

He also stated that Trump “will never be president.”...unbelievable arrogance from an unqualified pussy boy.
