Trump outlined his complaints about Obama’s presidency, saying: “You look at our budgets, you look at our spending, we can’t beat ISIS. Obamacare is terrible. … Our borders are like Swiss cheese.”
Obama predicted Tuesday that voters will “make a sensible choice in the end” and reject Trump.
Trump says Obama “has done such a bad job, he’s set us back so far, that for him to say that actually is a great compliment.”
Trump was answering questions at a campaign event at a Beaufort, South Carolina, high school.
He later added that Obama was “lucky I didn’t run last time, when Romney ran, because you would have been a one-term president.”
