During his hour long press conference on Monday, not a single reporter asked Obama about the anti-Trump radicals rioting in American cities. He didn’t mention it either. But two reporters practically begged Obama to say Trump is unfit for the presidency.

Not getting the appropriate level of outrage about the President-elect, Raddatz repeated, “Mr. President, you talked specifically about his temperament. Do you still have any concerns about his temperament?
Athena Jones of CNN asked a nearly identical question…
