Trump has glorious
petty disputes, though, don’t he?
Like that time when he refused to
shake hands with Netanyahu?
Ngl: I know the why of it, but
still enjoyed it.
Obama can yuk it up with Trump because he believes that, at the end of the day, Trump will ultimately honor basic liberal norms against jailing one's political opponents. And he's almost certainly right in that assessment.
