WASHINGTON -- When asked if he's worried Donald Trump might get the GOP presidential nomination, President Barack Obama couldn't even.

The president grinned and shook his head Tuesday afternoon when asked at a press conference about Trump's continuing dominance in the Republican field.

"I continue to believe Mr. Trump will not be president and the reason is because I have a lot of faith in the American people, and I think they recognize that being president is a serious job and it's not hosting a talk show or a reality show," Obama said after he finally got over it.
