Scott pelley on election night, 2016, thenpresident barack obama called donald trump at about 3 00 in the morning to congratulate him, even though mr. Trump had lost the popular vote and took the Electoral College by less than one percent in three states. Today, President Trump declines to accept the verdict of the voters despite losing by greater margins to president elect joe biden. Mr. Obama hasnt spoken of the election standoff until today. We spoke to the 44th president on the release of his new book, a Promised Land, a memoir of his early years and first term. What is your advice in this moment for President Trump . Barack obama well, a president is a public servant. They are temporary occupants of the office, by design. And when your time is up then it is your job to put the Country First and think beyond your own ego, and your own interests, and your own disappointments. My advice to President Trump is, if you want at this late stage in the game to be remembered as somebody who put Country First its time for you to do the same thing. Pelley in your view, it is time for him to concede . Obama absolutely. Well, i mean, i think it was time for him to concede probably, the day after the election, or at the latest, two days after the election. When you look at the numbers objectively, joe biden will have won handily. There is no scenario in which any of those states would turn the other way, and certainly not enough to reverse the outcome of the election. Pelley more than the courtesy of a concession, the Trump White House is declining to free up the usual funds and facilities for the incoming administration. President elect biden is not receiving secret National Security briefings as mr. Trump did when he was president elect. What in your estimation would our adversaries be thinking right now, russia, china, about the fact that the transition is not moving forward . Obama well, i look i think our adversaries have seen us weakened, not just as a consequence of this election, but over the last several years. We have these cleavages in the body politic that theyre convinced they can exploit. Theres an old adage that partisan politics should stop at the waters edge, right . That when it comes to our foreign policy, that it is the United States of america, not the divided states of america. Pelley we met the former president at a symbol of americas past divisions. The Smithsonians National portrait gallery was a hospital in the civil war. Clara barton and walt whitman cared for patients in the building where the 16th president consoled his wounded. We joined mr. Obamas peers in the gallery of the president s to talk about his book. Im curious about the title. I think a lot of people feel that we are farther from a Promised Land. Obama well, i titled it the Promised Land because even though we may not get there in our lifetimes, even if we experience hardships and disappointments along the way, that i at least still have faith we can create a more perfect union. Not a perfect union, but a more perfect union. Pelley you write in the book, our democracy seems to be teetering on the brink of a crisis. What do you mean . Obama we have gone through a presidency that disregarded a whole host of basic institutional norms expectations we had for a president that had been observed by republicans and democrats previously. And maybe most importantly and most disconcertingly, what weve seen is what some people call truth decay, something thats been accelerated by outgoing President Trump, the sense that not only do we not have to tell the truth, but the truth doesnt even matter. Pelley what are these false claims of widespread Election Fraud doing to our country right now . Obama the president doesnt like to lose and never admits loss. Im more troubled by the fact that other republican officials who clearly know better are going along with this, are humoring him in this fashion. It is one more step in delegitimizing not just the incoming biden administration, but democracy generally. And thats a dangerous path. We would never accept that out of our own kids behavig that way if they lost, right . I mean, if my daughters, in any kind of competition, pouted and then accused the other side of cheating when they lost, when there was no evidence of it, wed scold them. I think that there has been this sense over the last several years that literally anything goes and is justified in order to get power. And thats not unique to the United States. There are strong men and dictators around the world who think that, i can do anything to stay in power. I can kill people. I can throw them in jail. I can run phony elections. I can suppress journalists. But thats not who were supposed to be. And one of the signals i think that joe biden needs to send to the world is that, no, those values that we preached, and we believed in, and subscribed in, we still believe. Pelley president elect biden won in this election more votes than anyone in history. And yet, the 2020 vote wasnt a repudiation of donald trump; it was more like an affirmation. He received 71 million votes, eight million more than he did in 2016. What does that tell you about our country today . Obama well, a, it tells us that were very divided. And as i said, its not just the politicians now. The voters are divided. It has now become a contest where issues, facts, policies per se dont matter, as much as identity and wanting to beat the other guy. You know, thats taken priority. I do think the Current Media environment adds to that greatly. This democracy doesnt work if we dont have an informed citizenry. This democracy doesnt work if we dont have responsible elected officials at other levels who are willing to call the president when hes not doing something right, call him on it. Pelley it seems, though, mr. President , that americans have gone from disagreeing with one another to hating one another, a problem that this man had. Obama hes a good example of somebody who i think understood deeply the need to be able to see another persons point of view. Pelley how do we overcome where we are today . Obama theres no american figure that i admire any more than abraham lincoln. But he did end up with a civil war on his hands. I think wed like to avoid that. I do think that a new president can set a new tone. Thats not gonna solve all the gridlock in washington. I think were gonna have to work with the media and with the Tech Companies to find ways to inform the public better about the issues and to bolster the standards that ensure we can separate truth from fiction. I think that we have to work at a local level. When you start getting to the local level, mayors, county commissioners, et cetera, theyve actually got to make real decisions. Its not abstractions. Its like, we need to fix this road. We need to get this snow plowed. We need to make sure our kids have a safe playground to play in. And at that level, i dont think people have that kind of visceral hatred. And thats where we have to start in terms of rebuilding the social trust we need for democracy to work. Pelley mr. Obama is speaking after four years of virtual silence on donald trump. He followed a traditional commandment largely observed since adams succeeded washington thou shall not criticize your successor. In a Promised Land, he wonders if that was a mistake. In your book, you ask, whether i was too tempered in speaking the truth, too cautious in word or deed. Many americans, mr. President , believe you were too cautious, too tempered. Obama yeah. And and and i think that a legitimate and understandable criticism. At the end of the day, i consistently tried to treat my political opposition in the ways id want to be treated, to not overreact when, for example somebody yells, you lie, in the middle of me giving a joint congressional address. You lie obama i understand why there were times where my supporters wanted me to be more pugilistic, to, you know pop folks in the head and duke it out a little bit more. Pelley was it a mistake that you didnt . Obama every president brings a certain temperament to office. I think part of the reason i got elected was because i sent a message that fundamentally i believe the American People are good and decent, and that politics doesnt have to be some cage match in in which everybody is is going at each others throats and that we can agree without being disagreeable. Pelley there have been worse president ial transitions than 2020. The Southern States seceded while lincoln was president elect. Still, we couldnt help but notice, outside the National Portrait gallery, businesses are still boarded up against the fear of political violence. What should President Trump do on this next Inauguration Day . Obama look, there are a set of traditions that we have followed in the peaceful transfer of power. The outgoing president congratulates the incoming president , instructs the government and the agencies to cooperate with the new government coming in. You invite the president elect to the oval office and then on Inauguration Day, the president invites the president elect to the white house and theres a small reception. And then you drive to the inauguration site, and the outgoing president sits there and is part of the audience as the new president is sworn in. And at that point, the outgoing president is a citizen like everybody else and owes the new president the chance to do their best on behalf of the American People. Whether donald trump will do the same thing well have to see. So far, thats not been his approach. But you know hope springs eternal. Theres a Promised Land out there somewhere. Pelley two hours after mr. Obama said that, President Trump tweeted from the white house, we will win even though no state is reporting fraud or errors that could change the outcome.

Pelley during Barack Obamas first inauguration in 2009, unknown to the public, there was intelligence that a terrorist attack was planned. President obama had, at the podium, instructions he would read to the crowd should there be an evacuation of nearly two Million People from the national mall. This is one of the insights in mr. Obamas new book, a Promised Land, a memoir of his early years, his historic election, and his first term. We spoke to the 44th president about battles past and present. Did you watch the video of George Floyds strangulation . Obama of course. It was heartbreaking. Very rarely, though did you see it so viscerally and over a stretch of time where the humanity of the victim is so apparent, the pain and the vulnerability of someone so clear. And it was, i think, a moment in which america for a brief moment came face to face with a reality that African Americans in this country i think had understood for quite some time. And i was heartened and inspired by the galvanizing effect that it had on the country as a whole. The fact that it wasnt just black people. It wasnt just some, quote unquote, liberals who were appalled by it, reacted to it, and eventually marched. But it was everybody. And it was a small first step in the kind of reckoning with our past and our present that so often we avoid. Pelley but mr. President , trayvon martin, tamir rice, breonna taylor, george floyd, why is this injustice never overcome . Obama well, it, for a couple of reasons. One is that we have a criminal Justice System in which we ask oftentimes very young, oftentimes notverywelltrained officers to go into communities and just keep a lid on things. And, you know, we dont try to get at some of the underlying causes for chronic poverty. So if were going to actually solve this problem, there are some specific things we can do to make sure that our contracts with Police Officers dont completely insulate them when they do something wrong, putting money into budgets for training these Police Officers more effectively, teaching Police Officers not to escalate but to deescalate. But its important for us not to let ourselves off the hook and think this is just a police problem, because those shootings, that devaluation of life is part and parcel with a legacy of discrimination, and jim crow, and segregation that were all responsible for. And if were gonna actually put an end to racial bias in the criminal Justice System, then were gonna have to work on doing something about racial bias in Corporate America and bias in where people can buy homes. And that is a larger project in which all of the good news is all of us can take some responsibility. We we can all do better on this front than weve been doing.
