Obama vs Trump and Khama vs Nasha

Fascinating what politicians can say/think about counterparts in rival parties! Recently and almost simultaneously, we had American President Barack Obama of the Democratic Party and Donald Trump the Republican candidate in the presidential elections due to be held later this year exchanging un-savoury remarks about each other.

Here at home we had former Speaker Margaret Nnananyana Nasha and HE President Khama exchanging unpleasantaries.

Obama kicked off by opining that Trump will not become the next US President. Why? Because he is not serious! Trump returned the favour by saying the remark coming from a failed president was a compliment. Well, how does President Obama know Trump is not serious in what he says he will do when he becomes  President of the US? How does he define seriousness? Trump is the only one who should know whether he is serious or not. Serious, implies seriousness to accomplish a mission! Trump too is subjective. Only the majority Americans and objective outside observers  can say whether Obama failed as president, not Trump an American of a rival party.
