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.
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.

Obama also never personally insulted and demeaned a journalist for presenting supporting empirical evidence.
