President Obama chides wacky Donald Trump
Barack Obama has chided Donald Trump
as "wacky" and "uninformed" after the Republican candidate said
Russia's President Putin was a better leader.
In a televised forum on Wednesday, Mr Trump had praised Mr Putin's "great control" and 82% approval rating.
Mr Obama said: "I don't think the guy's qualified to be president of the United States and every time he speaks, that opinion is confirmed."
The president pointed to the diplomatic work he had faced at both the Asean summit in Laos and the earlier G20 meeting in China.
He said: "I can tell you from the interactions I have had over the last eight or nine days with foreign leaders that this is serious business.
"You actually have to know what you are talking about and you actually have to have done your homework. When you speak, it should actually reflect thought-out-policy you can implement."
Mr Trump had told the forum in New York that the Russian president had "been a leader far more than our president has been".
