President Barack Obama says he and his successor Donald Trump differ in many ways, but they share some qualities important to taking office.

In an interview with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos that aired Sunday, the current commander-in-chief called the president-elect “very engaging and gregarious” but said the two “are sort of opposites in some ways.” However, Obama admits that they share one necessary quality: confidence.

Donald Trump is not a traitor to the United States of America.

However, Obama admits that they share one necessary quality: confidence.

No Obama does not have confidence.

Confidence is a self assurance based on past accomplishments and the fulfilled expectations of your betters and peers.

No Obama has unwarranted arrogance. Obama had no accomplishments of record prior to entering the office of the President other than being elected to office.

Unwarranted arrogance is nothing to applauded, it is a vice not a virtue.

Arrogance will lead a man to attempt task for which he is unprepared and incapable of completing successfully. Such a man will lead followers to ruin. Such a man is foolish and those who follow him destined for failure.

Thus the explanation of the Democrats drubbing in the resent election.

Yes, Trump is a MAN who loves America and works hard.

Opposites,Obama? Yes if you have the time (when's your next tee time?), I could tell you, but he is someone who puts America and Americans first, unlike you.

Need more?

One is an incompetent, half black, airheaded, homosexual, dope smoking, cocaine snorting, Affirmative Action, illegal alien, closet muslim and the other is not.

Surprising!! The won knows the difference between GOOD vs EVIL. Sad to know even though he is aware there is indeed a difference, yet he continues to travel a very dark path and refuses to travel any other.

My son is a libertarian and we differed greatly on who to vote for, but he has said repeatedly that he is so proud to have a president who loves America and doesn’t apologize for America’s greatness.
