Former President Obama slammed former President Trump in a new podcast for not being considered a “serious guy” in New York City — where Trump spent most of his time before the White House, growing his fame and businesses.

Obama was asked on the “SmartLess” podcast by co-host Jason Bateman whether he was surprised how quickly the “protection and passion for democracy was diluted” in recent years. Obama responded by noting the trend began during former President Clinton’s time in the White House before accelerating during his presidency.

“I have been surprised that there haven’t been guardrails inside the Republican Party. Trump didn’t surprise me,” he said, before taking aim at Trump.

““protection and passion for democracy was diluted””

Says Mr. Pen and Phone who ignored the constitution and created a massive army of loyal bureaucrats to subvert voters and representative government.

“I mean, he comes from New York. There’s nobody in New York who does business with him or lend him money. He’s not considered a serious guy here,” Obama added.

I’d say Obama is dumb but, that would be redundant since he already knows.

Obama has always had little man problems.

BTW, riddle me this:
No one does business with him NYC? explain Trump Tower, Trump International, Owns a big giant jet emblazoned with his name, etc, etc, etc.....

Fact: DJT has accomplished (even before being elected President) 100 times more in his life than all the politicians in DC put together.

No, he’s not serious.

Possibly Obama is worried the footnote for his Presidency will be all the corruption, starting with Russiagate, that was part of his administration.
Bammy could only tear down, never BUILD like PDJT.

Obama giving advice a guy who gave Iran billions to help them with their nuclear program.

He’s always had a problem with reality and risks.
