I enjoyed reading through this. The thing that stuck out to me most was the contrast between how insightful and thoughtful President Obama is compared to Donald Trump, who is, from everything I have ever read about him, neither of those things.

I imagine that when a President enters the Oval Office for the first time after inauguration and sits behind that desk they feel a sense of gravity and honor for the position that they are assuming in leading the country. I wonder what will go through Trump's head.

Probably he will be thinking that the desk does not have enough gold leaf on it. Or the rest of the building, come to think of it.
