President Obama: Donald Trump is 'unfit to serve as President

August 02, 2016 21:22

President Obama said Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is "unfit to serve as president."

In a press conference with Singapore's prime minister, Obama added that Trump has shown he is "woefully unprepared to do this job" after his comments on military families as well as his handle on foreign affairs.

"Yes, I think the Republican nominee is unfit to serve as president," Obama said at a White House news conference in a response to a question about whether Trump is fit for the Oval Office.

"I said that last week, and he keeps on proving it. The notion that he would attack a Gold Star family that has made such extraordinary sacrifices to our country, the fact that he doesn't appear to have basic knowledge around critical issues in Europe and the Middle East and Asia means that he's woefully unprepared to do this job."
