President Obama got tongue-tieed trying to mock Donald Trump Wednesday. Appearing at a townhall in Elkhart, Ind., Obama stuttered repeatedly as he belittled Trump for dividing Americans:
“We’re still going to have to make sure we are paying for social security, and Medicaid, Medicare as our populations get older. There are still going to be a bunch of issues out there. But the agenda I am putting forward will point us in the right direction.
And the one thing I can promise you, is that if we turn against each other, based on divisions of race or religion, if — if — if — if — if we fall for, you know, a bunch of okie-doke — (Laughter) — just because, you know, it-it-it-it-it-it sounds funny or the tweets are provocative, then we are not going to build on the progress that we started. If we get cynical and — and just vote our fears, or if we don’t vote at all, we won’t build on the progress that we’ve started.”
