Washington Examiner: ‘He knows absolutely nothing’: Obama hoped he would be a presidential resource for Trump

Barack Obama thought he would be a resource for President Trump when he took over the Oval Office.

The former president hoped that he would be able to guide Trump after his first meeting with him following the 2016 election. According to a report on the encounter from Politico, Obama thought Trump knew very little about how to run the country.

He told a White House visitor after his first meeting with Trump, “He knows absolutely nothing.”

Obama’s former Attorney General Eric Holder explained that the ex-commander in chief wanted to ride off into an apolitical retirement, similar to his predecessor, but that didn’t happen. Instead, Obama has commented on his feelings about both Trump and Joe Biden as the two draw closer to a potential presidential showdown in 2020.
