President Obama on Tuesday sharply attacked Donald Trump, calling him “unfit to serve as president,” as the Republican presidential nominee faced a continued barrage of criticism from members of both parties for disparaging the parents of a fallen army captain.
“The notion that he would attack a Gold Star family that made such extraordinary sacrifices on behalf of our country, the fact that he doesn’t appear to have basic knowledge around critical issues in Europe, in the Middle East, in Asia, means that he is woefully unprepared to do this job,” Obama said at the White House, during a news conference with the prime minister of Singapore.
Obama also challenged Republican leaders to stand up to Trump, saying their condemnations “ring hollow” as long as they still pledge to vote for him.
“There has to come a point at which you say enough,” the president said.
The fact that Obama and Trump are almost the same complexion in those photos though (except Trump looks like he needs to carry a Whitney Houston sweat rag).
