Donald Trump Blames Barrack Obama for the White House Air Conditioning Issue

D onald Trump  is airing his woes about the cooling system in the White House — and he thinks  Barack Obama  had something to do with it. While speaking to reporters in the Oval Office on Friday, Trump, 73, revealed he would be spending time at his New Jersey golf club resort next month, but claimed that "it's never a vacation" while he's in Bedminster and said he would rather be at the White House, the Associated Press  reports . The president also argued that his time away from Capitol Hill would give maintenance crews an opportunity to fix the inadequate air conditioning system, which he insinuated was ruined by his predecessor. "The Obama administration worked out a brand new air conditioning system for the West Wing," he explained, according to AP. "It was so good before they did the system. Now that they did this system, it's [either] freezing or hot." Former President Barack Obama (left) and President Donald Trump RELATED:  Obama Takes J

#Can Will Smith's 'Aladdin' Genie compete with Robin Williams's? 'Prince Ali' clip divides fans

Disney has released a clip of Will Smith's Genie singing "Prince Ali" from  Aladdin,  and not everyone is feeling the magic. Adapted from the original animated film, the song takes place after Aladdin asks Genie to make him a prince, so that the poor thief can better woo Princess Jasmine. Genie conjures up a grand entrance for the phony prince "Ali Ababwa," introducing him to the citizens of Agrabah with a lavish parade. In the 1992 movie, the song is a huge, energetic production number, with Robin Williams's Genie  shape-shifting and performing magic tricks  throughout. Guy Ritchie's live-action version is shot more like a straightforward music video, and while some fans are ready to genuflect and show some respect, others seem extremely underwhelmed.
