At a tech conference, former President Barack Obama made a couple of pointed jabs at President Donald Trump, saying that too much media consumption 'clouds your judgment.'

Trump's love of television has also been well-documented. In 2018, Trump publicly excoriated Alec Baldwin for his impression of him on"Alec Baldwin, whose dying mediocre career was saved by his terrible impersonation of me on SNL, now says playing me was agony. Alec, it was agony for those who were forced to watch. Bring back Darrell Hammond, funnier and a far greater talent!" TrumpPresident Donald J.

Obama's comments about how watching television can adversely affect Presidential decision making are interesting in light of the deal he and his wife, Michelle, recently struck with Netflix. Programming coming to the streaming service include a show for preschoolers, a biography of Frederick Douglass and documentaries.....work that way. I have a better idea. Look at the Obama Book Deal, or the ridiculous Netflix deal.

Says the guy who just got a $65,000,000 deal with Netflix.

What judgement?

What does buying a $15M coastal mansion while preaching about climate change say about someone?

Trump had no judgement to begin with.

Trumps judgment has been clouded his whole life, TV and social media only exacerbates it.!!
