From Leno this evening:
"We had constant run-ins on the soccer field. He wasn't very good and resented it. When we finally moved to America, I thought it would be over."

Obama also weighed in on Donald Trump's offer from earlier in the day, which stipulated the businessman and reality television star would offer $5 million to the charity of Obama's choice in exchange for the president releasing his college records and passport applications.
Asked what was going on between himself and Trump, Obama joked that it "all dates back to when we were growing up together in Kenya," a jab at Trump's constant questioning of his birthplace in Hawaii.
"We had constant run-ins on the soccer field, and he wasn't very good and resented it. I thought it would be over when we got to America," Obama joked, adding he has never met Trump.

(36,437 posts)It's pretty funny, actually. Trumnp jumps up, then gets mouth-smacked in front of everybody, and has to retreat back to his filthy little corner. Every time he tests Obama, Obama ends him.

Irony and sarcasm is a mighty sword, when used properly - and I guess the President can use the sword where it hurts best..
