On ABC’s This Week President-elect Trump’s incoming chief of staff, Reince Priebus, demanded that President Obama forget about the years of Republican birther attacks and step up to legitimize Trump’s presidency.
Transcript via ABC’s This Week:
STEPHANOPOULOS: Well, the president-elect has stirred up quite a firestorm with his latest tweet. Was this the right fight for him to pick?
PRIEBUS: Well, look, here’s the issue — I and we look up to John Lewis and his historic contribution to civil rights.
STEPHANOPOULOS: But the president-elect said he was all talk, no action.
PRIEBUS: But — let me answer — but here’s the problem, we need folks like John Lewis and others who, I think, have been champions of voter rights, to actually recognize the fact that Donald Trump was duly elected. He’s going to put his hand on the bible in five days. And I think it’s incredibly disappointing, and I think it’s irresponsible for people like himself to question the legitimacy of the next United States president. I think putting the United States down across the world is not something that a responsible person does.
And so look, I think, in fact, I think President Obama could step up. We have had a great relationship with the White House, George. We just had every cabinet person designee of ours meet with the cabinet members of the Obama administration on Friday. I’ve met numerous times with Denis McDonough, they’ve been nothing but helpful.
So, I think the administration can do a lot of good by telling folks that are on their side of the aisle, look, we may have lost the election on the Democrat side, but it’s time to come together.
The Republican argument is basically that when a Democrat wins the White House, it is perfectly fine for them to spend eight years floating baseless conspiracy theory, but when a Republican wins the White House under circumstances that raised questions with 17 intelligence agencies, the country must rally around Trump.
Dear Reince…..
PHUCK.OUTTA.HERE.
No, Boo. It’s not President Obama’s responsibility to legitimize your illegitimate President.
Uh uh.
Not in this lifetime.
Let Joe Clark tell you all that President Obama ‘ must do.’
RIKYRAH IS NOT PLAYING…. She’s kicking mofos ass left and right.
Go in on him, Chica! Beat his ass!
3 Chics has RECEIPTS
We didn’t spend the last eight years at the bowling alley. We know what went down.
I often said that all of the disrespect they heaped on PBO and all of that GOP obstruction (at the expense of the American people) would lower the bar and the office of the president would never be the same. Now we’re on track for the buffoon-elect to be the most disrespected and hated president in history.
PBO doesn’t owe them a damn thing. If they want to play games maybe the should quit government and move to Vegas. I am just so fed up with their “come together” trash talk.
No one is going to “come together”. There will be no “unity”. Anyone who doesn’t recognize a real enemy is in a lot of trouble.
BWA HA HA You tell those MOFOs, “Joe Clark!”
Stay Black & Die, that’s all I got to do too.
