Barack Obama has officially joined the countless women in 2018 who are annoyed by men.

"I think empowering more women on the continent-- that right away is going to lead to some better policies," he continued.
Obama voicing his disappointment in men, especially those making front-page headlines, comes after a particularly mortifying week for President Donald Trump.
On Monday, Trump publicly supported Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin at a joint press conference in Helsinki, Finland, and refused to acknowledge Russia's meddling in the 2016 election.

Obama also delivered a speech on Tuesday in honor of the 100th anniversary of Nelson Mandela's birth, in which he said that we're living in remarkably "strange and uncertain" times.

As a woman, I'd just like to say with the utmost sincerity: Thanks, Obama.
