President Obama Shows Donald Trump More Courtesy and Respect Than He Deserves

Last updated on July 17th, 2023 at 09:30 pm

President Obama did the right thing this Wednesday morning, because that is who he is and what he does.

The President showed Donald Trump more courtesy and respect than the birther powered to the White House in part by the KKK and neo-Nazis deserved by calling Donald Trump to congratulate him on his victory.

President Obama called Donald Trump to congratulate him on his victory early this morning.

President Obama also stood by his word about the importance of a smooth transition of power. According to a statement from the White House Press Secretary, the President invited President-elect Trump “to meet with him at the White House on Thursday, November 10th, to update him on the transition planning his team has been working on for nearly a year. Ensuring a smooth transition of power is one of the top priorities the President identified at the beginning of the year and a meeting with the President-elect is the next step.”

President Obama also called Hillary Clinton to “expressed admiration for the strong campaign she waged throughout the country.”

President Obama will address the country today to discuss the election results and what we can do to come together as a country. In other words, Obama will be leading as he always does – from high moral ground.

This is who President Obama is. He is an outstanding leader, who is always there when the lights go out.

President Obama has more class in his pinkie than Donald Trump can buy with other people’s money. And it’s showing today.
