Trump Visits the White House


On November 10th Donald Trump met with President Obama in the Oval office for a 90 minute meeting. The meeting was pretty interesting because President Obama has always said Donald Trump was unqualified, unfit and a threat to this republic, and also said he should never be president. This is really no surprise because they have never really gotten along and Trump considers him to be one of the weakest presidents. In the meeting Obama said "I want to emphasize to you, Mr. President-elect, that we now are going to want to do everything we can to help you succeed because if you succeed, then the country succeeds". It's good to see these two put the past behind them and moving forward Obama is willing to work with him. The hand shake between the two seemed a little awkward and everyone on social media is making memes out of it, but other than that it seemed like the meeting was pretty productive.

  1. I have to agree, it's a nice thing that the two are getting along and moving forward rather than bringing up digs from the past. The transition seems to already be going quite smoothly and the future looks pretty bright.

  2. It was nice to see both being so cordial with one another in front of the media. They both obviously have concrete differences in opinion about how to run the country but they must jump through some hoops and smile for the cameras for the time being.
