Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has been whining like a huge baby still in his diapers for a large portion of his campaign. He keeps saying the election is “rigged” and the debates are “rigged.” He even says the media is “rigging” the election against him. I guess he doesn’t like to see the things he actually did and said show up on TV.
President Barack Obama just schooled Trump in a speech this afternoon.
President Obama said:
“I have never seen in my lifetime, or in modern political history, any presidential candidate trying to discredit the elections and the elections process before votes have even taken place. It’s unprecedented. It happens to be based on no facts.”
He gets real with the Donald and talks about the election process and how the accusations of it being “rigged” are ridiculous.

He said:
“You start whining before the game’s even over, if whenever things are going badly for you and you lose you start blaming somebody else, then you don’t have what it takes to be in this job.”
“But the larger point that I want to emphasize here is that there is no serious person out there who would suggest somehow that you could even, you could even rig America’s elections, in part because they’re so decentralized, and the numbers of votes involved … There’s no evidence that that has happened in the past, or that there are instances in which that will happen this time.”
“And so, I’d advise Mr. Trump to stop whining and go try and make his case to get votes.”
He talks about how a real president should act, and how the entire process will happen peacefully if Trump were to be elected, or his rival, Democratic presidential nominee, Hillary Clinton. President Obama said he would help with the traditional transfer of power to whomever is elected even though this contest has been bitter.
Here is the speech he gave:
