Trump opens up on viral moment with Obama
“It did look very friendly, I must say,” Trump said of his viral moment with Obama on National Day of Mourning. The future president admitted that he was unaware of “how friendly it looked.” “I saw it on your wonderful network just a little while ago before I came in, and I said, ‘Boy, they look like two people that like each other.’ And we probably do,” he added.
Without revealing what exactly he and Obama spoke about, Trump confessed to having opposing views from that of the former president. “We have little different philosophies, right? I don’t know, we just got along,” the future commander-in-chief said, adding, “But I got along with everybody on that. You know, we met backstage before we went on, and I thought it was a beautiful service, but we all got along very well.”
