Jimmy Kimmel had President Barack Obama on his show last night for an interview.
He asked Obama about getting calls in the middle of the night and how he handles them. Obama said:
“Every morning, somebody calls and says, it’s your 7 a.m. wake up call. And it works just like a phone. There have been maybe three to four instances where you do get a call in the middle of the night – like a typhoon.”
“But what I don’t do is, I don’t tweet about people who’ve insulted me. I try to sleep so that in the morning I’m actually ready for crises.”
President Obama is the model of dignity. He has been a great president, and he embodies the strength that we need in a Commander-in-Chief.
Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton will be that president. Obama said:
“Having worked with her, she is smart as a whip, she works really hard, she cares deeply about working families in this country. And she’s not somebody who thinks the job is about flash and sizzle and making speeches – it’s about getting policy right and making sure that folks are doing a little bit better.”
Kimmel has a popular segment on his show where celebrities read mean tweets about them out loud.
The President read these tweets with little commentary, but he was still pretty funny.
Some of the gems from these mean tweets include:
“Barack Obama is the Nickelback of presidents.”
“Barack Obama is the Sharknado of presidents: loud, stupid and over-hyped.”
“Obama couldn’t negotiate getting a Whopper without pickles.”
The best part was at the end when he read a tweet from Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump:
“‘Obama will go down as perhaps the worst president in the history of the United States – @RealDonaldtrump.’ Well, @RealDonaldTrump, at least I will go down as a president.”
He then dropped the phone after laying down this epic burn.
