President Obama had layers of intelligence, wit, compassion, leadership, grace, class, etc. he worse (and still wears) effortlessly and natually. Mt. trump will always look like, sound like, act like, and think like a coountry bumpkin when the two are contrasted, and I think trump so abdly wants to be what Pres. Oabama is, and trump both hates and envies him.
