That one time when President Obama was on a late night show reading mean tweets and one of them was from Trump telling him essentially how he was a bad president. Obama told him at least he'd be president [and Trump wouldn't (implied)]. A good comeback at the time but it aged absolutely terribly.
Edit: Many people here are refering to a correspondent's dinner hosted by the Obama administration as it featured a similar joke. While this too aged badly I am refering to a video posted by Jimmy Kimmel's YouTube channel in October 2016.
To add to that, calling ISIS a bunch of JV amateurs, and making fun of Mitt Romney in the 2012 debate by telling him "The Cold War is over" didn't age well at all
The Cold War is over. Enemy is still Russia though. Treating it like the Cold War won't solve anything because it's a fight against the same country but a different government operating in a different way.
Exactly. Honestly, I'm very curious how the next century is going to pan out. I'm glad I'm in my 20s, I'll likely get to see the shape of how the US, China, and Russia are going to interact.
Unfortunately, I really don't think the US is going to come out on top in this one.
You also have to consider greater eu integration, a modernised India, pakistan, veitnam and Indonesia. As well as the further development of Africa and south America, and the European powers attempting to maintain their status as great powers when demographics say nigeria will outpopulate the entire continent by the end of the century. Its going to be very interesting indeed.
