Jay Carney: Obama ‘Surprisingly Subdued’ Hearing News That Trump Isn’t Running
White House Press Secretary Jay Carney was asked earlier today whether President Obama was happy about Donald Trump’s decision not to run for President. The exchange with reporters resulted in Carney admitting Obama had a “surprisingly subdued reaction,” yet some reporters had a couple of amusing follow-up questions.
After Carney also said Obama “did not have a particularly notable reaction” to Trump’s news, one reporter joked “is there a certificate proving that?” Another reporter seemed surprised there wasn’t more of a celebration and asked “fistpounds around the White House?” Overall Carney laughed throughout the questioning, which seemed to suggest that at least he was happy Trump is gone.
