President Obama has a unique way of ROASTING Donald Trump without mentioning him by name, and it drives Trump nuts.
He just did it again, this time in front of every living president.
Watch this. 🔥
One thing I’ve always appreciated about Obama is that whenever he meets a child, he gets down to their eye level.
It’s such a small gesture, but it instantly tells a kid: “You matter. I’m listening.”
Leadership is often revealed in the little things. 💙

Michelle and I loved reading to this bright group of kids today!
We hope this new Chicago Public Library branch at the Obama Presidential Center will be a place where folks come to read, check out books, and connect with one another for years to come.
The story and celebration of Juneteenth started in Galveston, but its impact is felt far beyond Texas.
Generations of Americans refused to accept that freedom should belong to some and not others. They understood that freedom is something to cherish, and that each generation must continue the fight for justice and equality.
Today, we celebrate all of the joy of Juneteenth. And we recommit ourselves to ensuring the promise of America belongs to all of us.
Around here places like Target and Starbucks are hiring at $18 an hour.
Full time that’s $3,120 a month before taxes.
After taxes you’re taking home around $2,700.
Average one bedroom apartment near me is $1,750.
That’s already 65% of your paycheck gone before groceries, gas, insurance, or a single emergency.
And somehow this still gets called a budgeting problem.
Working full time should mean you’re stable.
Not one bad week away from a crisis.
Jay Leno's assessment of 83-year-old Joe Biden after spending a day driving through the Angeles National Forest in a 1967 Corvette Stingray: "He was very sharp. I thought maybe I would have to talk in a slower voice. But no, we just talked, and he was funny, and just making jokes. It was the old Joe again."
They stopped at a Handel's in La Cañada Flintridge. Biden surprised some kids waiting for ice cream. Shook every hand. Paid for a number of the kids' cones himself.
"Every handshake is worth 250 votes," Leno said. "Just congenial. Just a nice guy."
Meanwhile on the same Sunday, the current president was watching men in a cage fight each other on the South Lawn while a fighter grabbed the White House microphone to shout a conspiracy theory about Michelle Obama and another thanked him personally for making it possible.
Two men. Two Sundays. One country trying to figure out what it wants to be.
Biden talked about Beau. About NATO. About national parks. About the value of apprenticeships and the programs being cut that create them. Then he got chocolate chip.
Sometimes the contrast does all the work.
