Trump floats inviting Obama, Biden, Bush to the White House to watch football
President Donald Trump suggested during Friday's episode of "Storytime with the Second Lady" podcast that former presidents should have a reunion with him at the White House to watch football.
As Trump flipped to a page showing a president hosting a live viewing of the Super Bowl at the White House, he told second lady Usha Vance that it gave him an idea.
"Maybe I should invite Barack Hussein Obama, Joe Biden, with the Bushes — or Bush. Maybe I should invite some of those people to watch a football game together," he suggested. "Wouldn't that be a nice story? The press would go wild."
"A president reunion? That would be fun!" the second lady agreed.

The podcast features Vance, the wife of Vice President JD Vance, interviewing guests as they narrate books to children via YouTube. Visitors have ranged from race car driver Danica Patrick to the Artemis II astronauts and, most recently, Trump.
Trump narrated a book, "Presidents Play!" published by the White House Historical Association, which showed what presidents throughout American history liked to do in their spare time.
Trump, rather than read the text, offered humorous commentary on various past presidents as he flipped to their pages, such as that of William Howard Taft as he tossed a baseball.
"He was a large man, very large. And he loved baseball. He'd go to baseball games, loved the hot dogs at the baseball games," he said. "He was our heaviest president, and I have to be careful 'cause I don't want to supersede his record. And a thing like that would be possible if I allowed it to happen."

He encouraged those watching to stay in good shape.
On another page, he showed former President Bill Clinton jogging on a track that was built for him during his tenure at the White House.
"That's nice. I didn't even know that until recently, but he had a track built at the White House," Trump said. "I don't think I'll ever do that. I don't see myself doing that. I don't know. But he actually was a nice guy. I like Bill Clinton a lot. I still do."
Trump's living presidential predecessors, including Republican George W. Bush, Clinton and Biden, gathered at Obama's presidential center grand opening last month. Trump, who has been harshly critical of Obama and vice versa, was not invited.
