President Barack Obama on Friday expressed support for Donald Trump taking a fresh approach to America’s foreign policy, though he cautioned that the president-elect should do his homework first and reminded him that there’s only one commander in chief at a time.

“I think all of our foreign policy should be subject to fresh eyes,” Obama told reporters at his end-of-year news conference at the White House.

He said he was proud of his administration and believes he’s a better president now than when he was first sworn in, “but, you know, if you’re here for eight years in the bubble, you start seeing things a certain way, and you benefit from, the democracy benefits, America benefits from some new perspectives.”
