HBS.News - President Obama went off on his own rant Wednesday at a trilateral press conference in which he disputed the idea that Donald Trump is a populist and that the presumptive GOP nominee instead promotes "nativism" or "xenophobia."

After reporters asked a series of questions of Mr. Obama, Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Mr. Obama decided he had something else to say in Ottawa -- he addressed the common theme of populism raised during the event.

"I'm not prepared to concede the notion that some of the rhetoric that's been popping up is populist," Mr. Obama said, referring to Trump.

He said the reason why he ran for president in 2008, again in 2012, and why he will continue to work in some capacity in public service after he leaves office next year is because he cares about people and making sure every child has the same opportunities as he had.

The president said he cares about poor people, about workers having a collective voice in the workplace, about kids getting an education and ensuring that the U.S. has a fair tax system.

"I suppose that makes me a populist," Mr. Obama said.

Without identifying him by name, Mr. Obama dismissed Trump as someone "who has never shown any regard for workers, who has never fought on behalf of any social justice issues" and who has worked against providing economic opportunities.

"They don't suddenly become a populist because they say something controversial in order to win votes," he said. "That's not the measure of populism; that's nativism or xenophobia...or it's just cynicism."

"Somebody who labels us versus them or engages in rhetoric about how we're going to look after ourselves and take it to the other guy..that's not the definition of populism," he added.

Obama acknowledged that he went off on a "rant" and that he has that freedom now since he's nearing the end of his two terms in office.

During the press conference, Mr. Obama also addressed Trump's comments Tuesday in which he talked about withdrawing from trade deals like the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) or the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP).

"The prescription of withdrawing from trade deals and focusing solely on your local market, that's the wrong medicine. It's not feasible," Mr. Obama said.

HBSNews.com - The world woke up to the reality and aftershocks of Brexit, the U.K.'s eventual exit from the European Union. The U.K.'s departure from the EU is now forthcoming because of the success of a referendum there, where voters decided by 52-48 percent to make the break. The outcome of the vote has resulted in a sharp decline in the value of the British pound, the resignation of British Prime Minister David Cameron, who campaigned for U.K. to remain in the EU, and speculation that other countries in the EU might follow the U.K.'s lead. Global markets also took a tumble.

These surprising events have also caused speculation about whether the victory of the forces pushing for Brexit in the U.K. is an indicator of what might happen in the U.S. in November's presidential election. Specifically, does the success of Brexit overseas portend the success of Donald Trump here at home? Maybe.

The comparisons between Trump and Brexit are gaining credibility because the issues that propelled Brexit to triumph in the U.K. are the same issues that have been hotly debated in the U.S. As the Washington Post noted, "On both sides of the Atlantic, political establishments and the elites have found themselves on the defensive. Rising resentment over the fallout from globalization and the effects of the financial collapse of 2008, which has widened the gap between the rich and everyone else, has divided voters in Britain and the United States. Added to that are emotional issues of national and cultural identity at a time of growing demographic diversity, highlighted in both countries by often-angry debates over immigration."

Trump's presidential run, which has been marked by strong stances against immigration, a foreign policy guided by an "America first" philosophy and fierce campaigning against the traditional political establishment, has benefitted immensely from this dynamic. The frustrations with the status quo felt by conservatives across the country are largely what propelled him to the unexpected position of Republican Party nominee. Trump himself has remarked on the similarities between the sentiments that have promoted his campaign and the referendum in the U.K. At a recent press conference in Scotland, Trump said of the Brexit vote, "I think you're going have this happen more and more. I really believe that and I think it's happening in the United States. It's happening by the fact that I've done so well in the polls."
