Democrats should be “running scared” at the challenge posed by Donald Trump, President Obama has said. After launching his candidacy as an outsider last year, Mr Trump went on to overcome all rivals to clinch the Republican presidential nomination. Some polls have since indicated he is leading Democrat candidate Hillary Clinton in the presidential race. Asked by NBC News if Mr Trump could win, Mr Obama said: “I’ve seen all kinds of crazy stuff happen.” “I think anybody who goes into campaigns not running scared can end up losing,” he added.
