With a slip of the tongue, Donald Trump suggested Monday that President Barack Obama was not his president.
“I agree with her on one thing: The single greatest problem the world has is nuclear armament, nuclear weapons ― not global warming like you think and your president thinks,” he said.
Trump has repeatedly questioned Obama’s legitimacy as president by suggesting that Obama was not born in the United States.
Dan Pfeiffer, a former top aide to Obama, brushed off the comment.
It’s cool Donald, he didn’t want to be your president anyway

Several people took to Twitter to call out the outrageousness of Trump’s claim.
He’s OUR president, you pathetic little man.
