During a press conference in Malaysia with Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak Sunday, the POTUS was asked about comments the team owner allegedly made about African-Americans, according to CNN.
"When ignorant folks want to advertise their ignorance, you don't really have to do anything, you just let them talk," he said. "That's what happened here."
Obama went on to say Sterling's supposed comments prove that "the United States continues to wrestle with the legacy of race and slavery and segregation," adding, "that's still there, the vestiges of discrimination. We've made enormous strides, but you're going to continue to see this percolate up every so often."
