Hasan Minhaj asks President Obama what we’re all wondering: does he get depressed? When it’s 2 AM, and POTUS is in bed, does he doom-scroll on his phone? Hasan needs to hear from the most hopeful president in American history and have an entertaining but honest conversation about this generation’s hopelessness.

God I forgot how much I missed having a president that could form coherent thoughts and sentences for more than 20 seconds. It's been two presidents since we had that

When I hear this man speak I want to vote and pay taxes. What a weird involuntary response.

Hasan managing to stay a tough and critical interviewer while also absolutely fan boying is kinda impressive

I'm Canadian and when I watched him during his campaigning and his presidency, I taped everytime he spoke and rewatched it over and over. He was the shining star in your American presidency. Wish if there was a third term, it should be him! I miss him

Seeing Obama speak casually and crack jokes is so wholesome. No matter what you think about Obama as a president, you can’t deny his character is amazing.

"He's a factual liar, but emotionally honest" is the best summary of Trump I've ever heard

A president who could speak in complete sentences. That's the dream.

I think he's honestly just a nerd and really put together emotionally. He can handle a lot of situations without panicking. He's just a chill guy. He doesn't need to pop off because he's passionate about something. This is why people love him. He's such a fantastic speaker and he's as cool as a cucumber. Easy going and a vibe.

Hasan's bright, shiny eyes when Obama says 'I'm really proud of you', and then his nervous gulp when he asks Obama for feedback about his body of work. After giving Obama so much confident and candid feedback during the interview, you can see how much he really admires him. It's so great to see Obama reciprocate that respect by telling him he's doing great and should aim even higher. Beautiful interview.

Love Hasan Minhaj, but frankly I love Obama the way he is. His ability to regulate his emotions is phenomenal. It's part of why he's so extraordinary. I would much rather have somebody who can see the light when everybody else is in darkness.
