Obama and Trump meet for 1st time at the White House (photos)

Both of them said good things about each other during the meeting with Obama saying he was “encouraged” by Mr Trump’s willingness to work with his team, telling him:
“We want to do everything we can to help you succeed because if you succeed the country succeeds” while Trump called Obama a ‘good man’
The more cordial and friendly tone adopted by the two men towards each other was in sharp contrast to the bitter spats that characterized the election campaign.
