Donald Trump said President Barack Obama’s criticism of him is “a badge of honor.”

Wednesday on Fox News’ “Fox & Friends,” Trump said, “Our country is being led by a man that truly is in my opinion as a president, he’s incompetent.”

Obama said Tuesday, “I continue to believe Mr. Trump will not be president. And the reason is because I have a lot of faith in the American people. And I think they recognize that being president is a serious job. It’s not hosting a talk show or a reality show. It’s not promotion. It’s not marketing. It’s hard. And a lot of people count on us getting it right.” (VIDEO: Obama Slams Trump And Rubio: ‘Foreign Observers Are Troubled’)

Trump responded that being president is not “being a community organizer, which is what he was. That was about it.”

“Let me tell you, I built a great company, one of the great companies, some of the great assets in the world, very little debt and tremendous cash flow. It’s the thinking our country needs. We need a different thinking than guys like we have right now,” Trump argued.

Trump insisted that Obama is “going to go down as one of the worst, perhaps the worst president in the history the United States, and he certainly wouldn’t like to see me. And you know, it’s interesting, when they make those statements, that means that in a way it’s a badge of honor because that’s the one that they’re looking at.”

“Hillary, the same thing,” Trump said. “The last person Hillary wants to run [against] is me, and as you see I’m beating her in the polls. So I think we’ll do just fine. We have a tremendous number of people that want to see America be great again. And that’s what we’re doing.”
