If I were to run for third term, Michelle would divorce me: Obama

October 25, 2016 12:28

US President Barack Obama trolled Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump - known for his prolific use of Twitter to settle scores - making Trump the punch line for jokes on ABC's late-night show "Jimmy Kimmel Live."

Obama read aloud a series of "mean tweets" culminating in one from Trump: "President Obama will go down as perhaps the worst president in the history of the United States!"

"At least I will go down as a president," Obama said.

Kimmel asked Obama, "Do you ever laugh" when watching Trump on television. "Most of the time," Obama said.

Obama's second and final term ends on January 20. Under the US constitution, presidents are limited to two terms - which is just as well, Obama said.

"If I were able to run for a third term, Michelle would divorce me," he said, noting his wife does not like politics.
