GOOD MORNING AMERICA'S HOMEPAGE:

Now for how much Obama doesn't like Trump he still doesn't disrespect his voters. Take that in, he didn't kick him out for supporting Trump, unlike Trump that will kick you out if you are not voting for him.

[MariaVasquez-iqpl]

He didn't defend him because he likes trump he's defending him because he's a good president!!!

[MrImagayguy]

THIS is how you deal with someone. Class, tact, maturity, and understanding. No calls to "punch him in the face". No reminiscing of a time when protesters were "taken out on stretchers". No promise to pay the legal fees of whatever tool that decides to physically attack them. No fear mongering tactics or personal attacks to rile up the crowd into a violent frenzy.

Trump needs to take notes.

[bronco]

Obama went full on "Dad mode" at the start. "Everyone sit down and be quiet!"

[ndgame]

This man said "Hold up!" Obama is a fucking G.

[SonGoku-tpgb]

this is how a president should behave. he shouldn't feel so salty that he kicks em out.

[Tatrii]

Why did I get a notification that they uploaded a video when I'm not even subscribed?

[abeltamanji]

President Obama is really a wise person he us not aggressive he is gentle in all bad acts that are against him.

[iwtfyd]

That guy on the top right was really feeling the speech! 👍

[naturevalley]

As one of his biggest critics. I love him for this. <3

[oceancurrentsea]

Why didn't he ever stand up and say something for the homeless women thrown to the ground in LA for supporting Trump? This guy just likes to show off his witty replies. He didn't give a shit about individuals. He just wants people to clap and cheer for him. He's ego driven and I can't wait for him to leave the White House.

Donald Trump, THIS is the way a President Of The United States acts when there is a protester, you could learn a thing or two from the class this man has

[Geedi]

He not doing nothing? Come on man! what's happening to Obama? He's speaking like he's from the hood?

[reybo]

I do not support Hillary one bit, I am leaning Right, but was an Obama supporter in 2008. The way how he stood up for this protester, and the reasoning behind it was classy, and the perfect way how a president should stand up for free speech. Unfortunately however, his campaigning for Hillary is a bit of a conflict of interest.

[nonhominid]

They were probably planted so he could make such a grandiose comment.   If he respected free speech, he would not have banned dissident rallys where ever he visited.

[AfterJamieLeeC]

He didn't defend anybody.. He was just getting interrupted

[MEDaSEQ]

When the President of the "free world" takes time to comment on the little things for the little ppl, or makes it a point of duty to show how serious he is about the undesturbed "execution" of free speech, u know, the world is going to be a "better" place "soon, ", as a person who consider himself nothing if not free, in thought speech & will, this "should" sound like good new, it is but not or me

[alexhixson]

Obama: This man is a veteran defending his candidate.
Hillary: "I'm so sick of YOU negative Trump supporters."

[bp]

His charisma is unrivaled. That is as charismatic as you can get.

[evanshiong]

I was thinking about that if maybe at least 65% of Americans say that neither of the nominees are fit to be president, let the incumbent one serve for another 2 or 3 years, and then have another election. I saw someone in the comments say “Can we keep this guy till we get some decent candidates?”. Donald would’ve quipped about the protestor needing his mommy, and Hillary would lash out at them. True class :)
