WASHINGTON, Feb. 27 (UPI) -- House of Cards actress Robin Wright said President Obama doesn't think he has the chops to be like Frank Underwood, but his wife Michelle does.

Wright plays Claire Underwood, the intelligent and calculating wife of President Frank Underwood (Kevin Spacey).

Underwood is a shrewd, murderous House majority whip who clawed his way up to the presidency through political maneuvering. Wright was speaking about the show when she said the president jokingly told her, "I'm not as bad as your husband, but my wife is."

House of Cards was released on Netflix Friday.
