 Michelle Obama says ‘We never could’ve gotten away with’ what Trump does

By Emily Jacobs

Former first lady Michelle Obama took a dig at President Trump and his administration, saying she and former President Barack Obama “never could’ve gotten away” with what the current White House occupants do.

The former first lady made the remarks while having a discussion about race and the expectations placed on black Americans in the latest episode of her Spotify podcast, released Wednesday.

The episode was focused on parenting, families and race and featured Obama’s mother, Marian Robinson, and her brother, Craig Robinson.

Race was prevalent throughout their discussion, during which Obama explained how “almost everybody” she knows has had “some kind of incident where they were just minding their own business but living black, and got accused of something.”

Obama continued by saying that from a young age, black children are taught that they have to exceed expectations in order to be viewed as though they are enough.

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
Well, that's right.
If they had been investigated with the rabid fervor that Trump has, and impeachment pursued with that same zeal, they wouldn't have lasted a month.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

The fact that Chewie thought she could get away with this ludicrous assertion is proof to the contrary.

What if Trump based on his own authority and nothing else shipped $150 Billion dollars to Iran Israel at midnight with no Congressional approval/oversight at all?

Would he "get away" with that?
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

Why do Dems feel that they are not limited to their personal 15 minutes.

  • Dems-greatest existential threat to USA republic!
Obama and his henchmen attempted a coup that failed, something intended to destroy our republic, and the slime dog and his henchmen are free to shoot their mouths off when their tongues should be dangling from their mouth from the hangman's noose for sedition and treason.

No. Because of the double standard in Washington, D.C. media, against traditional, normal America. And that goes double if we’re talking about Trump.

This double standard poises a danger to the constitution, to the republic and to liberty unless we challenge it right now, while the left has revealed it’s violent intent to take over government and while MAGA is in good position to energize and mobilize normal conservative Americans to openly resist this insurgency.
