- And the latest
presidential video project,
well it's getting a lot of attention,
but perhaps not in the way
the White House intended.
- [Narrator] The President,
joking around with a selfie stick.
Selfie stick, selfie stick.
- [Woman] President Obama
appeared with a selfie stick.
Critics called it undignified.
- [Man] A lot of
conservatives especially said
this is not presidential, this
is beneath the presidency,
why is he doing this,
he's demeaning the office.
- [Man] Quote, a fool
proof way to make yourself
look like a self absorbed ass clown.
(dramatic music)
- You know, it's said that
Ronald Reagan wouldn't even
take his jacket off in the Oval Office,
but now we have a Commander in Chief
that's doing jump shots and
actually, what is a stick,
selfie I mean, it's ridiculous.
- Tonight's question of
the day, what do you think
of that selfie?
- Yeah, that's your president.
He's got a selfie stick.
- [Woman] One conservative tweeted quote,
remember when the office of
the president had dignity?
And another wrote quote,
this definitely is
a new low for our juvenile president.
- Here's the leader of the free world,
the guy we trust with
the button for the nukes,
acting like a 12 year old.
- It is ridiculous, it is beneath
the President of the United States,
but I think he thinks he can do no wrong.
- It is not only not befitting,
but imagine what Reagan would
have done in this situation.
- [Man] He'd point a selfie
stick in the White House.
That's befitting the office?
- I just don't have words for that clip.
- Are we seeing a changing of the guard?
Is the office not gonna be as
dignified as it used to be?
(patriotic music)
(upbeat music)
