Kris Jenner Fires Back At President Barack Obama For Remarks About Kim And Kanye

Earlier this month President Barack Obama made a few comments about the lifestyle of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West in an interview with Amazon, and Kris Jenner fired back on her talk show on Friday.
Reporter David Blum asked Obama about the American dream, and the president noted that the dream used to be about having a good home, a good job, and the possibility of higher education. However, things are dramatically different this days, thanks to social media and the obsession with celebrity culture. "There was not that window into the lifestyles of the rich and famous," he said. "Kids weren't monitoring every day what Kim Kardashian was wearing, or where Kanye West was going on vacation, and thinking that somehow that was the mark of success." Wait ... isn't Kanye on vacation in Greece right now -- without Kim???
What did Jenner have to say? "It's really great that people aspire to get a great job ... but I wasn't aware that you could only set the bar so high and that we could only dream so big," she whined on her show. "I was taught: Dream big, work hard and you could have whatever you wanted."
“I bet the President has some friends with 10,000 square foot houses and that he wouldn’t mind going over there," she said. "When [he was] asking them to have a party for [him] while [he was] campaigning for dollars to run for president.â€
Jenner continued, "I find it so odd that he's picking on Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. Well, Kanye West, first of all, doesn't go on vacation. Ever. And Kim Kardashian is the hardest-working young lady in the world. She never sleeps, she never stops, she never slows down and works so hard for what she's got."
