"Well, @realDonaldTrump, at least I will go down as a president," said Obama. Trump's opponent Hillary Clinton is leading in the current polls.
"Bro... do you even lift?!" another user asked, to which Obama calmly replied, "Well, I lifted the ban on Cuban cigars, that's worth something."
On October 14, the White House announced that they would lift the $100 limit on Cuban cigars and alcohol that are brought back to the US.
