@cspanofficial: Former President Obama condemned President Trump's decision to ban CNN, MS NOW and Politico from the White House and said a better understanding of democracy must be restored during a fireside chat at Colgate University in Hamilton, New York, on Friday. "I'm trying to think what would have happened if I had said, you know what, Fox News, you're out of here! It's unimaginable," the former president said. He said that if people in the country think the ban is acceptable, America must develop a better understanding of what democracy requires. "I don't think all is lost on that front, but we have to roll up our sleeves and get working here," he said. #obama #trump #press #cspan

I’m hoping Trump does run for a third term opening the door for Obama to run for a third term against him and demolish Trump. A fitting end.
