While preparing to give remarks at an event in San Jose, Calif., President Obama seemed to be lacking one thing: his actual remarks, and instead of asking nicely for them, he snapped at staff.
Obama took the podium and greeted the crowd, but the script-heavy commander-in-chief found himself without his prepared statements.
“I want to thank everybody who is here. I think there is only one problem and that is that my remarks are not sitting here. People!” the president said. “I’m going to answer a question at the end of the remarks but I want to make sure we get the remarks out. People! Oh goodness, oh someone’s tripping. Folks are sweating back there right now.”
A man standing behind the president had one little piece of advice for Obama, “Don’t fire him,” he said.
Maybe the president just needed a cup of coffee and a nap.
