‘The Five’: Obama says he 'obviously' has room in Trump's head...

[0:00] Have you heard of him? [0:01] All right. [0:03] So we all know former President Obama is one of President Trump's favorite punching bags. [0:07] But is there more to the story? [0:09] Fresh off, opening his $850 million eyesore of a presidential library, [0:14] the former commander-in-chief has a theory on why 47 keeps coming after him. [0:20] I obviously, you know, have a room in his head. [0:22] Grant Freed. [0:23] You do everything with grace. [0:24] A suite in his head. [0:28] But the thing about it is that was always clear to me. [0:32] Look, first of all, when I was president, the last thing I had time to do was worry about what somebody said. [0:39] Somebody said or what my predecessors did. [0:42] They're gone. [0:44] I've got work to do. [0:47] So, Jesse, by my count, if there is a suite in Trump's head that Obama has, [0:52] that gets him up to about, what, six residences by now? [0:56] Trump talks a lot. [0:58] He says a lot of things. [1:01] So, yeah, he's going to mention Barack Hussein Obama. [1:04] Part of that is just he likes to say Hussein. [1:07] Yeah. [1:07] But the other part of it... [1:08] Why does he like to say Hussein? [1:09] Because it's funny that the president's middle name was Hussein. [1:12] You don't think that's hysterical? [1:13] No. [1:14] Okay, okay. [1:15] It's interesting. [1:15] It was the name of the dictator. [1:18] Which is why he says it, so that people still think that he's Muslim. [1:21] So problematic. [1:22] Well, he did say he was Muslim, and then he cleaned it up. [1:26] Remember that NBC interview? [1:28] He said my Muslim faith. [1:30] I don't know what he is. [1:31] I don't care what he is. [1:31] He's probably an atheist. [1:32] You know what he is. [1:34] He is. [1:34] I know. [1:34] He's retired. [1:35] No god-jury person would eat a dog. [1:39] But, you know, he also says my great friend Xi, the great Sean Hannity. [1:43] He says things all the time, okay? [1:45] He's not obsessed. [1:46] But if some guy spied on my campaign, I'd talk about him. [1:50] And I'm sure Barack Obama talks about Donald Trump all the time [1:54] because he knows his legacy doesn't stack up. [1:56] Besides being the first African-American president, [1:59] all he's done was Obamacare and Bin Laden. [2:03] And Obamacare is constantly bankrupt, and we need to keep bailing it out. [2:07] He knows it. [2:07] Everybody else knows it. [2:09] And his library looks dumb. [2:10] He's like the guy walking around with a zipper down, [2:13] and no one will tell him because he doesn't have any friends. [2:16] There's a mental image. [2:18] Dana, since you're laughing, I might not be able to answer. [2:20] If Obama has a sweep in Trump's head, [2:25] Biden would have a whole floor, isn't it? [2:27] Because the idea here is that Trump is undoing stuff that came before him. [2:30] I guess so. [2:30] And also, like, nobody paved the way more for President Trump than Barack Obama. [2:34] Exactly. [2:34] Right? [2:35] So, basically, if you remember what Obama said about Romney and Paul Ryan, [2:41] basically, it was like, you're Hitler and Mao and Stalin all put together, [2:44] and you want to kill Americans and throw them off the cliff. [2:48] And then when he said that he didn't have time to think about his predecessors [2:52] because they're gone, do you know how many times Barack Obama said, [2:56] get a mop, I have to clean this up? [2:59] 394. [2:59] Probably. [3:00] Maybe even more than that because I would be asked about it all the time. [3:03] So, I think that what the Republicans did, and this often happens, [3:08] the country will do the opposite of whatever came before. [3:13] So, and then the country did Biden, and like, okay, wait, no, actually, we didn't want to do that. [3:17] What's the opposite of Trump? [3:20] Well, it was Biden, and now, you mean, what's the next opposite of Trump? [3:24] You'll see. [3:24] A short socialist woman who's dirt poor. [3:28] Nominee, Jessica, let's talk about things that never happened. [3:30] So, they asked Obama about the library, and he said, I wish it was less about me. [3:38] It's the Obama presidential library. [3:39] I wish it was less about me. [3:41] And then she says to him, well, then who should it be about? [3:44] And he says, Gandhi. [3:46] What? [3:47] Gandhi. [3:47] Yeah, Gandhi. [3:48] That's who he invoked. [3:49] Do you just, answer me just one simple. [3:51] Do you believe it? [3:53] I mean, so I just finished reading Regime Change. [3:57] You finished it already? [3:58] Yeah. [3:58] It's like 500 pages. [4:00] Like 450. [4:00] It's really good, though. [4:01] And Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan have this great anecdote [4:05] about how Donald Trump says that a presidential historian said he was more powerful than, like, [4:11] Hitler and Mao and Stalin. [4:14] And they're like, who's this historian? [4:16] And he's like, I met him with Gary Player. [4:18] And then they go and find out who it is, and it's actually Gary Player's caddy. [4:24] So, Barack Obama bringing up Gandhi sounds a lot better to me than Donald Trump saying that [4:28] he's more powerful than Hitler or Mao or Stalin. [4:31] In other words, what's more interesting? [4:33] Trump, which is why you told the anecdote, which I've already heard 17 times. [4:37] The Gandhi thing, I just found very hard to believe. [4:40] I mean, is he really, I wish my own library were more about Gandhi. [4:44] Like, I mean, really, I mean, at that point, Greg, take us home. [4:48] I have a couple of things I want to say. [4:51] Number one, it's, when you're a successor, it's always kind of normal to think about the [4:58] person before you as the most powerful name at Fox. [5:02] I still think about O'Reilly. [5:04] You know, once in a while, my thoughts will just go back to me going in on the O'Reilly [5:09] factor with Bernie sitting there, O'Reilly looking at me, giving me guff, telling me to keep it pithy. [5:14] I think about Tucker constantly. [5:17] Exactly. [5:17] But here's the deal. [5:18] When people say they accuse you of living in their head or, ooh, I must have touched a nerve, [5:23] it's always after they initiate something. [5:26] They'll, like, say something bad or do something bad. [5:28] And then you respond, and your response is somehow an obsession because they cannot defend what they said. [5:34] They go, ooh, ooh, look who's living rent-free in your head. [5:39] Libs accuse us of obsessing over a number of things. [5:44] The culture war issues. [5:46] Who initiated that stuff? [5:48] It wasn't us. [5:49] How about race? [5:51] They say, oh, why do you care about race? [5:52] We don't care about race. [5:54] We never, you guys brought that up. [5:56] DEI is dead, but you guys started it. [6:00] They say we obsess over bathrooms and high school sports. [6:04] We didn't want to. [6:06] You guys created the bathroom issue and put dudes in girls' sports. [6:10] And then you accuse us of obsessing. [6:12] Of noticing. [6:13] Yeah, of, suddenly we're noticing. [6:15] They say we obsess over guns. [6:17] No, we're not. [6:17] We just know that you want to take them from us. [6:19] And you say that. [6:20] You say we obsess over cancel culture and wokeism. [6:24] Again, we didn't invent it, but we'll fight it. [6:28] And don't accuse us of being obsessed over something that you're trying to take away from us. [6:33] You called everybody a Nazi. [6:36] And now you accuse us of obsessing over Plattner. [6:39] Isn't that rich? [6:40] I'll stop there. [6:41] I think I proved my place. [6:42] Let's recognize something, too. [6:43] You need ID to get into Obama's building. [6:46] Into that library, right? [6:47] What? [6:48] Is that like a Nazi? [6:49] Like all the fake voter frauds? [6:50] So let's put the voting boots inside the Obama library. [6:54] Don't give them any ideas. [6:55] All right. [6:55] Coming up next, Supergirl went super woke. [6:58] Now the box office may go super broke. [7:01] Be sure to like and subscribe for all the Fox News latest on YouTube and catch full shows streaming now on Fox 1.
