Trevor said he could talk to Barack for hours, and I certainly could have listened for hours. Great job, both of you; it was relaxed, fun, and covered a lot of topical ground. Well done.
@Sarah Asaad he inherited a war and did what he felt was best to end it , i would prefer drones over actual people doing the deed, war is a disgusting unpleasant thing and there's nothing beautiful about it ... you need to talk to your boy bush
I have that Same feeling I live in Paramaribo, Surinam.e South America ... Here - after having had a Horrible Regime for tÉn years - finally we have a New President whom I'd Líke to believe wíll try his bést to make the Earth proud for having this Beautiful country I live in...
Such a relief to see Obama happy again! Best wishes from Germany! This was the first time I got mad about anything in America apart from the burning Oil fields and the war in the Bush era. I remember our male teacher breaking down crying over his typewriter that time. It was the media I think. We had new media, not owned by the state anymore but private. They made this up like the end of the world. When we looked TV before going to school, a clock always was ticking during the news. My best friend and me finally decided to put out the TV and we were not sick anymore and could sleep at night. We were just 17 then. This time I just watched on youtube a short movie about Biden and he seemed to be so fragile. Looking a lot on youtube then and reading the German news in the internet I was sick again with worries. Now, what a great president Biden is, he may just be the right person to fight corona, fight the climate change and reunite american people and help everybody to lead a decent life for their work. Good luck America from the bottom of my heart!
Yes, I miss having a president who carries himself like a grown ass man. And I miss having a First Lady who isn't a ho. I miss being respected as a nation. My overseas friends won't visit until we're stabilized again. This clown has run the country into the ground. We need to prosecute the entire Trump-Kushner crime family.
The other replies to this comment are suggesting Obama was the worst president and that somehow Trump was far greater to non-Americans. I understand people can be exaggerated, but it screams immaturity and lack of understanding of the topic for people to be so quick to make wack claims like these. I encourage Middle easterners to study their history and actually look at the policies and decisions Obama made. I find it so annoying that people claim he is a Warhawk throwing numbers like he is in x amount of wars with little care of how events actually played out nor the reason for the conflicts. When you bother to actually learn about any of these conflicts it becomes clear as day that none of these conflicts were unjustified nor 'because to US gov wants war'. Go look it up yourself the wars during Obama's administration and look into the reasons for the conflicts and how it all played out. Every war that began after he was sworn in from 2008 to the present had all been unavoidable with conflicts that forced military responses. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wars_involving_the_United_States#21st-century_wars
Trevor is actually a great interviewer, probably one of the best I've ever seen. I've seen some of his other interviews, and he really listens, shows genuine interest, and asks great questions.
Can we just appreciate how well made this interview is? These guys are talking to each other on screens, but watching this it feels like they might as well have been in the same room. Well produced!
@@cosuinofdeath As apposed to a sociopathic buffoon. There was nothing racist about his comment, for you to think that it was racist speaks to your internal disposition - you're projecting your internal character onto others. Trump was very uncaring and stupid to the point that he did not seem human anymore on both accounts. He was likely the dumbest president America ever had by far.
Trevor has always been like that. He is multifaceted. Often people from other countries (as Trevor described himself “international” ) have to be well-read, also parents are adamant that we take our education seriously, because that’s often our only ticket. Unlike in America where there many more opportunities, so people can prance around being mediocre or uneducated and still be “successful”. But when you dig deeper, they are sorely lacking... intelligence.
It’s totally to Trevor’s credit and how multi-talented he truly is. I often think about how powerful comedy actually is and how it seems like many people overlook this. To be able to make someone laugh who has a completely different world view than you is a rare and useful skill that Trevor has.
@@fathersamuel8474 Trump got a lot of bad things done, where Obama was more of a mixed bag. Just because policy doesn't effect you, doesn't mean its nonexistent.
@Sarah Asaad Did it ever occur to you that if you are not a bunch of ignorant uneducated backwater daughter Humper's like Trump, that you would not fall for such obvious lies?
That's exactly the very first thing I thought/ commented. You can see Obama thinking it out, planning the wording... not like he is zoning out. Rather than just blurting out something about bleach, cucumbers, bashing someone who said something he didn't like.
@@Boaz833 she's actually right, at least in that Obama had a very militaristic foreign policy and used drones and airstrikes, and bombing civilians. Also under his leadership, with respect to immigration from Mexico, America started paying Mexico to crack down on immigration coming through Mexico from central America. There's a lot of things in his record that aren't as good as you would think hearing him speak.
@@AbidingDude420 To be fair to the media, it's impossible for them to not report the crazy things that came out of the President of the most powerful country in the world's Tweets and mouth. Not just covering Trump but also the people in power that tried to justified the crazy things he said & done. It is the media's duty to report them.

@Joe Butler A half truth. He certainly didn’t love them; I think he opposed them more than any president in decades. But it’s true, his goal to gtfo was painfully naive. Luckily, he has the good sense to learn and adapt. Unlike our current president who won’t admit when he hears the weather wrong.
Trevor, you are a brilliant interviewer. Asking pretty difficult questions with ease and a smile, and the president parries in frank, sincere, jovial and presidential manner. We miss you BO! Each time we say BO!, GOP reps shiver.
@Sarah Asaad try finding war that doesn't have casualty and for the record... middleeast is a place with a failed countries...stop crying and be a hypocrite
@Sarah Asaad Also Obama didnt lead people into the middle east. Handling could've definitely been better. But your trippin if you think trump hasn't tried to initiate war with countries and.....drone strikes countries as well and revoked the rule from the Obama administration to report those strikes. So whats your grounds?
My daughter and my granddaughters are biracial, so, needless to say, we were all very excited when Barack Obama was elected President of the USA in 2008. During a visit, my daughter asked the little one, who was 3 years old at the time, 'who is our new president?' Her reply is one of my fondest memories. She stood straight up, looked me in the eye, and announced with pride, ' Our new president's name is 'rock your mama.' 🤣
@joe joe by America's standards Trevor might be black, but in South Africa he is not - he goes on about this in his memoir, about growing up as biracial
@joe joe seems to have deleted his comment or had it deleted for him. From the responses here I gather it's good it's gone. I'm sure you've experienced much more and much worse. Thank you for sharing your very wonderful story. I was going to light a candle for a friend who broke her femur but now it's for both of you. And yes, I'll always think "rock your mama" when I hear Obama's name.
I've been listening to a lot of Obama's interviews in late-night shows and this one is by far the best! Trevor's questions are thoughtful, relevant, well-formed and what I appreciate most: they don't get stuck in the Trump era of it all but actually, talk about the book and about Obama's legacy and his views on it now. There are no softball questions without being rude or making him feel attacked, many many congrats Trevor and the rest of the Daily Show's team.
I was just about to write this comment,. I've watched plenty of Obama's interviews about the book and this is by far the best! Trevor is an amazing interviewer and questions are original and not basic as some can be. This was a fantastic 30 minutes and flew by.
This man, Barack Obama, is he not the traitor whose participation in the assassination of Gaddafi by the rebels financed by Great Britain, France and the USA, led to the destabilization of the whole region, until Mali and Ivory Coast? A few days ago, Malian soldiers also published photos of French soldiers looting Malian gold; Mali indeed has the largest reserves in the world! This attack on Libya by France, GB and USA also gave birth to the slavery of African migrants in Libya. Gaddafi effectively managed the arrival of migrants in Europe, and after killing him, France, under Sarkozy and then Holland, had to ask the European Union to finance the jihadists so that they preserve the border of entry into the Union European; it is these jihadists who established the new slave trade in Libya. And to think that Obama is talking about inspiring young people! What a disaster if all young people were to be like this monster!
@@hectorjarquin4320 How a man whose daughter is dating a white man , an man he let stay in his house with his daughter can be racist? This is the trope of white supremacists: be racist while accusing others of being racist. Be racist white accusing others when they protest. Auccse others of terrorism while terrorizing them!
I think that was one of the better interviews I’ve listened to with Ob-izzle. Trevor has a way of relating very personally with his subjects while still asking challenging questions and balances that perfectly with the right amount of humor. Truly brilliant!🙏
That's what I felt when I read his book as well - that he has the ability to relate with anyone he meets. I think it has to do with his upbringing. That's what I sensed anyway.
@@redicd6857 You’re mistaking trump for Biden. Biden DOES NOT have dementia, he has a stutter. He has absolutely no problem forming a sentence ever. Again, it’s a STUTTER, not cognitive decline. So do you think everyone with a stutter has dementia? Even children? Shame on you.
One thing for sure Obama's skin color means NOTHING. His actions to support Wall Street bankers the stock market and did close to nothing to end police abuse if power speaks volumes of his character. He let us down I pray that everyone sees that corporate democrats are just as bad as Republicans
@@patriciacornejo9668Lies and he had a Republican senate who stated they were goin to make his job as hard as possible. Learn politics before U open ur mouth. Obama is brilliant and was one of the best we’ve ever had
Arguably one of the best interviews Ever recorded. Obama was great as usual but kudos to Trevor for asking such in depth, and difficult questions! Simply brilliant!

Obizle is next level. He's exactly the kind of person that should be president. America should always look for the highest quality of character in our representatives.
@@CHOPIN926 Snoop Dogg always adds "izzle" to words (for sure my dude became fo shizzle my dizzle) and I think it's just a play on the name Obama with that.
@@okaydudes Well Vietnam was a shorter war than the Afghan war. And it was only one war not two plus several more "actions" like Syria, Yemen, and the ISIS uprising. Geopolitics are a bit more complicated than bombs = bad.
I love it. I could never work up the nerve to say it to his face, but I love it. I couldn't believe that The Kid Mero referred to him as Barry (in a funny way) during their interview with him this weekend
@@Justusson I think it was Snoop Dogg who coined this sort of cousin to pig latin of taking the first syllable or even just letter of a word and then ending it with "izzle", such as house = hizzle. Trevor just applied that to Obama's last name apparently. I'm not sure if he did it on the spot or is simply referencing someone else who did it previously, but that's definitely the etymology there.
Trevor is so on point as an interviewer. Great questions, great follow ups, respectful, but no free passes. Helps to have a subject who will respect that sincerity.
I do like his easy conversation, and his humility, and ability to laugh at himself. And I appreciate someone who thinks about what he wants to say and how to express it.
Trevor Noah is probably one of the best comedians recently, and Obama is Obama, I wonder why they haven't teamed up to make South Africa a better place
It would be nice if he wasn't a fraud. He talks about barriers, but he helped put them up, prosecuted whistle blowers, and expanded the surveillance state. Yeah, we are frustrated with Mr. Obama because he did not even fight the good fight. Obama sold out big time.
I truly enjoyed this extended interview. To hear the POTUS candidly speak about his decision making mechanizations was profound. Trevor is also an excellent interviewer.
@Sarah Asaad I hope you know history and know that Obama inherited wars from Bush. How do you blame Obama for that. He had a lot of things to fix. He even tried to stop the wars which is why some US politicians even insult him. Trump inherited a pretty settled issue cos Obama had tried to put brakes to the heat of wars created during the Bush regime. A lot of achievement of Trump was because of the progress Obama made in Economy and even security. On Libya, don't blame Barack. Every nation should blame themselves when they tell other world leaders that they want Democracy. If any nation wants democracy, US supports the people who want it cos democracy is the world order instituted from the US. So if the people chose the wrong choice, they should not put it on the country they convinced to help them. So don't blame Obama on it. See the Hong Kong democrats, didn't Trump administration support them? They did. If HK turned to Libya, it is their fault and not the US fault. Also, note that same thing that the HK people did, the US government did not even give half the chance to the BLM movement. Same US that praised HK protesters who were committing arson, destroying properties of government and private businesses (of those who shared a different opinion on the fight), producing petrol bombs, fighting police, doing cancel culture (beating people, pouring petrol on them, stop patronising certain businesses) to people who had other opinions from them. The US said they were peaceful protesters and that they inspire the world - Josh Hawley said that. So, don't blame US legislators or the President for those things. Don't blame Obama, decisions are deliberated first by the legislatures/legislators before the president can put a pen to it. Only few decisions are vetoed. Syria's issue didn't start with Obama. It has been on for years on years. Go back to your history books. He even tried to stabilise things that were so heated before he came in.
@@jtgirl yet his destruction continued, how about selling guns to Mexico did bush inherit that? “ Operation Fast and Furious “, he also dropped bombs against doctors without boarders .
He goes further to say, “because the legacy of things you inherit should not just be brushed aside” (approximate quote) - that was an eye opener and caused me to think. That statement warms my heart because he respects the history that he stepped into.
Trevor Noah is one of the most thoughtful interviewers out there. Every question demonstrates deep understanding of issues and genuine interest in the person with whom he is speaking. Bravo!
Trevor’s intelligence to hang with any level of intellectual minds beyond just the “funny guy” aught to be applauded. Trevor’s not just funny; he’s dead serious.
Very enjoyable and insightful interview. Trevor asked very insightful questions and President Obama (the nation needs and really misses him) was very forthright and honest and showed his sense of humor and humanity.

Have you seen both of the ones with his former staffers? One on Pod Save America and one on Pod Save the World? Especially the last one, on foreign policy, was fascinating. Hearing Obama discuss that with Ben Rhodes and Tommy Vietor was so great.
Yes! I was aware of that throughout the interview. Trevor clearly respects, honors, and admires President Obama! It was a wonderful interview!! Well done, Trevor!!! 💕
@Mavisyper Écrivain I suggest that YOU aren't getting paid to correct punctuation.😂 Stay on point, cuz I'm sure YOU always have correct punctuation..PERIODT!😅
If only obama was president again, we could debate whether or not it made sense to give a medal of honor to a soldier who bombed a country via an xbox controller
In the book he just makes excuses for his war crimes and illegal funding of Israeli apartheid in Palestine because he was pressured by a loby group lol, we don't need that
yeah you didnt get paid to write that or anything. everyone around obama are such utter frauds i dont know how they can live with themselves. even the plebs like this fool. just YUCK👎🏾
I miss this guy's humour. In a way, his family is lucky to have such a good-humoured man in it. But on the other hand, he is so lucky to have such a wonderful family that can enhance his very being without sacrificing their own individual epicness. This is the First Family America should always present as their dream.
When my 6yr old daughter saw me watching this, she said "who's that mommy, he looks familiar" I went on to explain "that's President Obama etc..." she interrupted and said "you mean Michelle Obama's husband" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 she's knows Michelle 😍🤣🙌🏾

Healthcare for all, public safety nets, schools, education for all, environment, emissions,.. And the democracy, that has been proven now. You have functioned as a security and safety net for the world though. Something for all to gather around. Your moral compass wasn’t always the best, but when you did things that were good, it had great repercussions. For that we are grateful.

I love the president in this interview. He seems comfortable and his answers flow so well. Not a bunch of uhs and pauses. I've always thought he was a thoughtful person.
I've seen many of " a promised land " interviews, Trevor's questions in fact are very smart, funny & opening Doors & not just shallow like some other shows. Even the humor comes with style.

@@instert_very-generic_name8919 hahahahaha it’s Bushes/Chaney 19 year war and it’s still going and the body count ain’t dropping. This war is tied to the opium crisis in America, remember we went there to protect the Afghanistan poppy fields, which profited the pharmaceutical industry who has killed more people than the cartels and is protected by the government. The American government has killed for less and its turned its gun on its citizens and it will do it again. Remember who gave Rick Ross all that crack to sell in the 80s.
Noah is so wrong here... "I´ve never been able to, like, just change a thing in the world" He´s done a lot with the plataform he has. When "comedy central" shift´s and becomes the capital of racional and logical though, I think you are doing a lot to change things in the world. Keep the good work man!
@z borg and you don't know how to read through the comments. Someone else said the same thing and I told them that I was talking about his presidency. Why don't you completely read through the thread to make sure you know the whole conversation before leaving a comment 🙄
I agree. I always thought "Defund the Police" needed far too much explanation and was an unfortunate choice of slogans. It doesn't sound like what it is intended to mean. I like "Demilitarize the Police" much better.
Agreed but ironically we should be using ex military (if passing a post war psych examination) should be police because they'd know how to think critically under pressure and not shoot someone then claim they thought they pulled their taser gun out of their holster instead of their actual firearm. Many of these cops never went under heated situations before with people and don't know how to manage their adrenaline. military knows how to act under the most intense situations. so maybe kinda MILITARIZE the police in a way, honestly. I say this as a black, ex marine. Id rather have ex military handle brothers and sisters than some random dude off the streets that feels above the law because he has a badge.
@@ARDG89 I agree we want police who are solid under pressure and the military is a great place to find people who perform under pressure. I want to see those kind of people in a less "militarized" police system that is far more cognizant of mental health
Ignore the idiots commenting, Obama’s swagger is unmatched and is the coolest president ever so I get it. Fun to be around, charismatic, and just makes you feel warm. He is the popular kid in school who graduated but still comes to visit.
It is better your children see you as the normal human being that you are. Instead looking up to you as someone they will never be. That is not life. Also you are not Obama. It's ok if parents show real life and behave boring and constant. They don't need to know the full version of you.
