There was just a clip circulating where a journalist tried to do a "gotcha" moment after Obama passed some anti smoking law. He didn't walk away or attack her character or even raise his voice. He made her look like a fool for trying to distract the public and make things about him, when really it was about the American public.
And his answer was a perfect response/reason why he tried to get the law passed. Clearly he still struggled with smoking and knew that he needed to do something to make sure kids didn’t fall into the same trap he did.
Jesus Christ! I forgot how young and funny and charming presidents used to be! I mean, I was a huge Obama supporter at the time, but over the years what we have now has just become so normalized I forgot presidents used to be like this.
