Obama Goes Off on Trump Again: ‘This Isn’t a Joke! This Isn’t Survivor!’
President Obama went on another tear against Donald Trump today, mocking his Twitter habits and saying we can’t treat the presidency like a reality show.
“He says that he’s going to be his own foreign policy advisor,” Obama said. He says that’s because he’s got a good brain. Now, I won’t opine on his brain…”
He went on to mock Trump for being upset at SNL:
“Anybody who’s upset about a Saturday Night Live skit you don’t want in charge of nuclear weapons! No, I’m serious. This is a guy who tweets ‘They should cancel Saturday Night Live‘… Really? I mean, that’s the thing that bothers you? Come on, man.”
The president lamented how the race has become “reality TV-ized,” saying, “You can’t make excuses for this stuff! This isn’t a joke! This isn’t Survivor! This isn’t The Bachelorette! This counts!”
