Barack Obama ended his final press conference by extolling his confidence that the mainstream media will help him fight for his post-presidential agenda.
Believing America will be “okay” when Donald Trump displaces him from the White House, Obama said, “This is not just a matter of ‘no drama Obama,’ this is what I really believe.”
He continued, “It is true behind closed doors I curse more than I do publicly. And sometimes I get mad and frustrated like everybody else does.
“But at my core? I think we’re going to be okay. We just have to fight for it. We have to work for it and not take it for granted,” Obama said of his values and policy agenda.
“And I know you will help us do that,” he said to the assembled room of reporters.
“Thank you very much press corps,” he concluded.
