Donald Trump Meets Obama: Did They Shake Hands?


It has happened.


Not only has Donald Trump been elected President, but the man who rose to political prominence by questioning Barack Obama"s birth place has now actually met Barack Obama.


For the first time.


The President-Elect and the 44th President of the United State spoke to reporters while sitting side-by-side in the Oval Office on Thursday, November 10.


"I want to emphasize to you, Mr. President-Elect, that we now are going to do everything we can to help you succeed because if you succeed then the country succeeds," Obama said at one point, while Trump replied:


"Mr. President, it was a great honor to meet you and I look forward to meeting with you many, many more times."


Shocking. Truly shocking all around.
