Obama thinks US president-elect Trump is not “ideological” but “pragmatic”

US president Barack Obama held his first press conference since the election yesterday (Nov. 15), and most of the questions centered around president-elect Donald Trump and the two men’s first meeting at the Oval Office last week. Obama shared his first impressions from the hour-and-a-half-long meeting, describing Trump as a “gregarious person.” But, he said, “There are going to be certain elements of his temperament that will not serve him well unless he recognizes them and corrects them.”
