Obama dismisses Trump phenomenon as a flash in the pan: 'Talk to me if he wins' â but Biden says 'it's possible' Trump could become president
Obama said he is 'pretty confident' that Trump won't win by 'scapegoating,' and the American people will ultimately reject the Republican's message However, he said, 'Anything's possible. And I think we shouldn't be complacent. I think everybody's got to work hard' The president acknowledged that politics is as divided as it has ever been, though he declined to call it a failure: 'It's a regret' Biden talked about the 2016 race and his dis on Hillary Clinton over her 'relatively new' interest in income inequality He joked that he would still get in last minute if he won the lottery: 'Everybody says I can retire, well I'll run' President Barack Obama is 'pretty confident' that Donald Trump won't win his White House bid by 'scapegoating,' and the American people will ultimately reject the Republican's message.
'Talk to me if he wins. Then we'll have a conversation about how responsible I feel about it,' Obama told Matt Lauer after the Today host suggested that the president's leadership had created a hunger for Trump's brand of politics.
Vice President Joe Biden 'it's possible' that Trump could pull off a White House win. But he told Today's Savannah Guthrie in his own, 'This is just the very, very beginning' of the 2016 race. In the NBC interview that aired this morning Obama said the former reality TV show star is preying on peoples' fears.
'The message that Donald Trump's putting out has had adherence a lot of times during the course of our history,' he said.

Considering the epic lack of enthusiasm for watching the SOTU and seriously dismal approval numbers, people are already tired of talking to him...
Give the GOPe their share of the credit. They are as much responsible as Obama.
....or listening to him.
Bush got us Obambi.
Obambi AND Hillary will get us Trump. Cruz doesn’t have enough support.
....And he will win Obama.
I can’t imagine anyone who wasn’t tired of listening to him past the first 5 minutes after he started speaking...
Well he has ralles that produce heavy turnout Mr.Obama.
He said “Talk to me when he wins”
He thinks “I’ll be in Dubai”
Who would want to win Obama?
I'd rather win a sick third-world kid.
Obama is the most arrogant SOB ever. He still loves to brag that he won after all these years. His tone of voice is school boy punk.
I hope if Donald wins, HE has a talk with Obama and America about this:

Wouldn’t THAT be a blast for someone to finally vet him and ask him about his Communist/Muslim parents,relatives,his upbringing, his membership in a Socialist part, ad nauseam?
Once either Trump or Cruz wins, the only words that Obama needs to hear are: “Mr. Obama, you are under arrest.”
Not original, but accurate.
I didn’t claim it as mine, either.
What an imbecile we have at the top. Everyone who voted for this idiot needs to be disenfranchised.
After 24 years, I hope so!
Trump’s the kind of guy that takes remarks like that as a challenge. Revenge will be served cold.
Trump will talk to him when he wins. As in “When are you going to have your furniture out of here?”
