Trump and Obama talk policy on visit to White House
Quote:
President-elect Donald Trump and President Barack Obama met for the first time Thursday, with the incoming president saying he has “great respect” for Mr. Obama and plans to seek his counsel while in office, a dramatic shift from searing criticism of his predecessor during the 2016 campaign.
Messrs. Obama and Trump met at the White House for 90 minutes, more than an hour longer than planned, during which they discussed a range of domestic and foreign policy issues and organizational logistics about life in the White House.
“As far as I’m concerned it could have gone on for a lot longer,” said Mr. Trump, who was seated next to Mr. Obama in the Oval Office. He called Mr. Obama “a very good man.”
“We discussed a lot of different situations, some wonderful and some difficulties,” Mr. Trump said, adding that included “really great things” that have been achieved. “I very much look forward to dealing with the president in the future, including counsel.”
this video is tear inducing. obama is truly an American hero who will be dearly missed. despite all his flaws no one can deny he was one of the greatest in modern time. watching him sitting next to trump is depressing af
He doesn't realize what he's gotten himself into
