President Barack Obama explained why he's cautiously optimictic about President-elect Donald Trump during a Thursday press conference in Germany alongside German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
Obama said the "solemn responsibility" of the office and the "extraordinary demands" made on the United States "demands seriousness," and Trump will "figure out pretty fast" that the demands of the job are "not things you can treat casually."
"And, if you're not serious about the job, then you probably won't be there very long because it will expose problems," he said. "Even when you're doing a good job, even when you are attentive. There are so many things that come across your desk."
The president also acknowledged that Trump's victory was "perhaps" the biggest upset in modern political history.

Self proclaimed B minus president kept repeating “I did a pretty good job” overseas, while Nov 8 election said completely otherwise.
Trump is VERY serious, deadly serious.
Otherwise he would not have sunk 100 million into it.
The one that treated the presidency like a part time job was you, Obama
Give us some examples, Barry.
If you got any.
“And, if you’re not serious about the job, then you probably won’t be there very long...”
FUBO....is he gone yet, can’t take another second..
Says the man who just had his first real job with responsibilities. . Trump has been a hard worker his whole life.
Says the guy who played 10000 rounds of golf.
Does Obama even know he was President? He was never allowed to speak in public. He had to read from a teleprompter. He probably read this statement from a teleprompter.
Obama relayed this message through his golf caddie.
“The concept of actually working is not comprehended by Obama”
I’d like to see him working as a dishwasher in a prison mess hall. That would teach him something.
More blather from the Pathological Liar a.k.a. the Fraud and Usurper.
62 days and 21 hours, Punk, and you’re gone.
This, from the idiot who couldn’t even give an impromptu speech unless he was high on cocaine? Yah. I’ve got a health care program to sell him, too...
He can’t even function without someone else pulling his strings.
Obama is still not qualified to be President. What a tool...
“Says the clown who set the record for presidential time on the golf course.”
Over 300 rounds in less than eight years. I was a pretty avid golfer at one point, and I can’t think of any eight-year period when I played 300 rounds of golf. I had a job and a family that took most of my time.
This Teachable Moment brought to you by Goldman-Sachs and by the letters K, B, and O. And by the number 0.
If I were Obama, I’d be worried about keeping myself out of jail. I would be flipping on Hillary so fast.
Serious as going the late show with that guy who looks like a frog. Having jay Z and Beyoncé come to the WH? Going on between two ferns?
Will the conceited leftist subversive EVER SHUT UP & go away?
