Barack Obama on his book, President Trump, George Floyd, the divisions in the country, and more (975 hits)


Barack Obama on his book, President Trump, George Floyd, the divisions in the country, and more

The former president shares the advice he would give President Trump, his thoughts on the killing of George Floyd, and what's behind the divisions in Washington and across the U.S.

On election night, 2016, then-President Barack Obama called Donald Trump at about 3 a.m. to congratulate him, even though Mr. Trump had lost the popular vote and took the electoral college by less than 1% in three states. Today, President Trump declines to accept the verdict of the voters despite losing by greater margins to President-elect Joe Biden. Mr. Obama hasn't spoken of the election stand-off until today. We spoke to the 44th president on the release of his new book, "A Promised Land," a memoir of his early years and first term.

President Obama's thoughts after leaving the Trump inauguration
Scott Pelley: What is your advice in this moment for President Trump?

Barack Obama: Well, a president is a public servant. They are temporary occupants of the office, by design. And when your time is up then it is your job to put the country first and think beyond your own ego, and your own interests, and your own disappointments. My advice to President Trump is, if you want at this late stage in the game to be remembered as somebody who put country first, it's time for you to do the same thing.

Scott Pelley: In your view, it is time for him to concede?

Barack Obama: Absolutely. Well, I mean, I think it was time for him to concede probably-- the day after the election-- or at the latest, two days after the election. When you look at the numbers objectively, Joe Biden will have won handily. There is no scenario in which any of those states would turn the other way, and certainly not enough to reverse the outcome of the election.

You did not hear that all Trump's campaign’s allegations of election irregularities So far, none has been proved and Giuliani's BULL 💩 made a fool of himself and got thrown out of court over the weekend, that means Steve, that the vote of the people will be heard.

Steve, why are YOU so against following the law of this land which give the people of The United States America the right to VOTE, a VOICE, that told Trump "YOU'RE FIRED." You heard that, didn't you?

That is the REASON Steve, now go tell Trump to Stop It and prepare for a peaceful transition, OK!

One way of the other Trump will have to leave the Orval Office January 20, 2021 because what you are witnessing is a failed attempt at suppressing the BLACK vote.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I don't mind if the transition happens at noon 1/20/21. That's plenty soon enough.

Steve Williams
So, why are you defending Trump BS, Tell him to step down then or you are going to leave his campaign, OK!

Brother Pastor Ron Gray!

A Truly Great, Uplifting, and Informative Interview!

Why else would he hate all of mankind? Mankind was loved more than he. That's one of the reasons the demon in the so-called "White House" is reluctant in handing over the keys...power is and always have been the necessity for wanting to be better than those who outnumber - namely, people of color 'All Over The World!"

"If We (They) can't have it, We Shall Destroy It!" ...And be damned to all who do not agree - We (They) shall truly beset upon the truth and utilize it in their (all the world) destruction!

Trump will accept the Vote of the Electors. Until 1/20/21 he is President and he doesn't owe you a thing after the hell you put him through. And I don't feel sorry for you, you brought it on yourself with your own ill will.

Hey Steve, let’s get back to the subject.

On election night, 2016, then-President Barack Obama called Donald Trump at about 3 a.m. to congratulate him, even though Mr. Trump had lost the popular vote and took the electoral college by less than 1% in three states. Today, President Trump declines to accept the verdict of the voters despite losing by greater margins to President-elect Joe Biden. Mr. Obama hasn't spoken of the election stand-off until today. We spoke to the 44th president on the release of his new book, "A Promised Land," a memoir of his early years and first term.

Why won’t Trump give Biden the same courtesy to a President Elect?

He is acting like his feeling is hurt because of what the people of The United States did to him on Nov 3.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
There was massive fraud, which is being exposed by Rudy Giuliani at this very moment. Andrea Mitchell is not covering it. That's why Trump will NEVER concede.

Then GO, start a blog Steve.

Read my answer:

"There was massive fraud, which is being exposed by Rudy Giuliani at this very moment. Andrea Mitchell is not covering it. That's why Trump will NEVER concede."

Thursday, November 19th 2020 at 5:53PM
Steve Williams
"YOU" Can't answer that question, that clear as a bell question Steve?

OK! Answer the question of: Why won’t Trump give Biden the same courtesy to a President Elect, the same treatment he received as President Election?

Answer that question and then we can talking about Sweaty Rudy Giuliani as that LYING helper of Trump's, as Rudy suffers A massive hair malfunction in his latest bizarre press conference as LIERS under pressure shows the world that he is LYING..

is that agreeable Steve?

Thursday, November 19th 2020 at 8:47PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Why didn't Andrea Mitchell cover it Ron? Rudy said there was a central conspiracy behind the manipulation of millions of votes, and he has proof. She must be afraid is the only reason I can think of.

Thursday, November 19th 2020 at 9:19PM
Steve Williams
BYE Steve, it is a shame that you can't answer a simple question because you know your efforts of backing TRUMP, is the wrong way for The U.S. government to be headed.

Trump and Giuliani was trying to Suppress The Votes of Black Americans so a looser can win but that will not happen. Thank You Lord.

Since we can't come to an agreement, then you are telling that I 'am RIGHT and you have NO Defense for Trump failed attempts to over turn the election.

BOTTOM LINE.

Have you watched this blogs video report of Barack Obama's?


Thursday, November 19th 2020 at 9:56PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
The first part, like you quoted. The fake look of concern on the interviewer's face turned me off. I'm watching Capehart's special at the moment.

What did I quote Steve?


Thursday, November 19th 2020 at 11:09PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Barack Obama: Absolutely. Well, I mean, I think it was time for him to concede probably-- the day after the election-- or at the latest, two days after the election.

There is no scenario in which any of those states would turn the other way, and certainly not enough to reverse the outcome of the election.

I stopped watching after that

To put the names of The Great President Baraka Hussein Obama in the same sentence as....

Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
The truth is usually unpalatable when you are looking that the truth that proves you WRONG as hell for standing by those who are Suppressing American votes In order to steal, a presidential election.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
I told you, I didn't like the way the CBS interviewer looked. The Capehart interview was better. the freshman reminded me of my own son.

Friday, November 20th 2020 at 11:59AM
Steve Williams
The interviewer what not the story here Steve. So, you don’t know the what the subject of this blog is, do you?


Friday, November 20th 2020 at 1:34PM
Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Pfffft... Duh, The Promised Land is not worth consodideration, it's only an expression of a big ego. But My Brother's Keeper is a whole different matter.

I saw the soundbites, just like everyone did Ron. Everyone in the media are after the filthy lucre of their book deals. I don't read any of them. Give me a real history book, not a long-winded, poorly worded display of vanity.
