President Chastises Trump Over Video of Sexual Assault Discussion and Lewd Talk
President Barack Obama Tuesday afternoon took to the campaign trail to stump for Hillary Clinton, and took a few moments to mock her opponent.
“Tweeting doesn’t qualify you” to be president, the President told a cheering and laughing crowd of supporters in Greensboro, North Carolina. “Sound bites don’t qualify you. Insults certainly don’t qualify you,” he said, openly mocking Donald Trump.

The President also chastised Trump, saying, “you don;t have to be a husband or a father to hear what we heard just a few days ago and say, ‘That’s not right.'”
The audience applauded.
“You just have to be a decent human being to say “‘That’s not right,'” he continued, to more applause and cheers.
