Trump Suggests Ex-Presidents Football Reunion During Story Time

President Donald Trump made a series of notable remarks during a White House appearance for Story Time with The Second Lady, where he joined Usha Vance to read a children's book about U.S. presidents.

A Football Reunion With Obama and Biden

Discussing a photo of past presidents watching a game together, Trump floated the idea of a similar gathering.

"Maybe I should invite Barack Hussein Obama, Joe Biden, with the Bushes or Bush... maybe we should watch a football game together," he said.

He added that "the press would go wild" over a "president reunion."

America "On a Little Bit of a Ledge"

Asked for advice to children ahead of July 4th, Trump said: "We have a country that is on a little bit of a ledge right now... we're going to make it go the other way."

He called the holiday "a fantastic day," marking the nation's 250th anniversary.

Trump said that Washington, "with the help of your husband and others, has become a very safe place," adding that he and Second Lady Usha Vance walk in the area, "with massive security."

An Obama Jab Amid the History Lesson

Trump referred to "Barack Hussein Obama," questioning his basketball ability: "I don't know if he's a good basketball player. I tend to doubt it."

He added that Obama's "favorite sport is golf," but "he won't be in the Masters anytime soon."
