Obama hits Trump with a Twitter diss only a president can deliver

Earlier we told you about Donald Trump's campaign staff taking over his Twitter account, a move some believe was meant to keep the famously Twitter-obsessed candidate from damaging his own chances with another social media gaffe before the vote on Tuesday.

Word of this change apparently got back to President Obama and he decided to go in on Trump in a way that only a president can.

Chuckling in front of a crowd of Hillary Clinton supporters at a rally in Florida on Sunday, Obama said, "If somebody can't handle a Twitter account, they can't handle the nuclear codes."

That makes two mic drops for President Obama this year.
