I never thought that I would agree with Michelle Obama, but she has a point. America doesn’t deserve her presidency.
We’re a sinful nation and we have a lot of problems, but we don’t deserve an even angrier and less talented Obama.
Former first lady Michelle Obama said in a conversation published to her YouTube page Friday that the country is not ready for a woman president, adding that the U.S. has “a lot of growing up to do.”
“As we saw in this past election, sadly, we ain’t ready,” Obama said. “That’s why I’m like, don’t even look at me about running, because you all are lying. You’re not ready for a woman. You are not.”
“You know, we got a lot of growing up to do, and there’s still, sadly, a lot of men who do not feel like they can be led by a woman, and we saw it,” Obama continued.

The incredible thing is that when the Obamas campaigned for Kamala with this message, it hurt Kamala and led to a backlash from black men, of all people, and yet Michelle Obama is doubling down on it while addressing, for the first time really, the calls for her to run.
Some conservatives were obsessed with the idea that Michelle Obama would run. I said she had no interest in running. This comment can be read as a backhanded way of expressing interest, but I think Michelle Obama, amid the latest round of whining about how she’s the most oppressed human being on earth, knows she would flame out badly and is putting the onus on her hatred for America, for not running.
Michelle Obama polls well on ‘respected figures’, but so most first ladies, on the campaign trail, she has done nothing but damage, her speaking style is poor, her attitude is terrible and she spends half her speeches either berating Americans or complaining about how badly off she is. If you thought Kamala flamed out, Michelle would be worse.
She’s doing her party a favor by chatting with her pals about how hard her life is rather than campaigning.
