Obama said Trump will find out 'fairly quickly' that he can't take his new role 'casually' and that he must listen and reach out to a variety of groups if he wants to see success 'If you're not serious about the job, then you probably won't be there very long because it will expose problems,' he said at a news conference today in Berlin, Germany He was making his sixth visit Germany - Berlin is where he was greeted like a rock star during an iconic speech in 2008 In that unifying speech he lauded open and diverse societies and urged people to tackle climate change On his return the jubilation of his last trip has been replaced by fears for the future of the liberal global order There's nervousness about Trump's election after his criticism of NATO and skepticism about climate change

“You just can’t make this stuff up”

Exactly!
Why isn’t Obama CALLING FOR AN END TO PROTESTS NOW?

Obama’s brain has been steadily devoured by a deadly disease. He wasn’t too smart to begin with, but was extremely fortunate to be accepted as a foreign exchange student.

It was easy. He had the press in his pocket as well as the Nobel Peace Prize committee. Everything he did was glorious according to them. They could have taught Baghdad Bob a few tricks.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Trump honestly came out of that White House meeting with a very different attitude. I expect the view from behind that desk is very sobering. You can see the effect it had on Obama. He went from being 100% stupid and useless to being 99% stupid and useless. That was a profound change for him.

Trump trying to unify and Obama still trying to divide... I feel most sorry for black people, going to be tough to elect the next black president after Obama’s legacy, which I believe history will show him as nothing more than a community organizer that tried to divide and destroy a country... from the office of the President! He never attempted to be president to the half of America that did not vote for him... and did not really provide any benefit those who did either. Race relations have been set back 40 years!

Obama’s got a lot of nerve to criticize and lecture a man who hasn’t even spent one day in office, What Obama needs on this tour is for someone to shove a pie tin full of human excrement in his face................

'If you're not serious about the job, then you probably won't be there very long ...'

He will shortly overturn everything you've done. It won't take very long...

Serious as a heart attack.

In a couple months Trump is going to be warning Obama that treason is a crime.

Obama never took the job seriously from day one. It’s just been one big party and golf outing for the last 8 years. Commies sure do a lot of projecting. Trump is all business. Obama is all bs.

LOL

You know what, it wouldn’t surprise me.

Listening to Rush in the last few hours, I found out that Trump doesn’t curse.

He doesn’t drink, smoke, or curse.

He has a large percentage of Christians beat there.

I’ve got to do better with my potty mouth here.
