Michelle Obama’s Maniacal Meltdown

“For the first time in my adult lifetime, I am really proud of my country. And not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hungry for change. And I have been desperate to see our country moving in that direction.” – Michelle Obama, February 2008

When Michelle Obama told an audience in Milwaukee that, at age 44, she was finally proud of America for the very first time, she received a good bit of flak for her comments… and justifiably so. In fact, Cindy McCain, the wife of Republican presidential candidate John McCain, quickly countered by saying, "I have, and always will be, proud of my country."

Michelle clumsily walked back her comments the following day in a vain attempt at damage control, offering a lame explanation about how she was referring to her past disillusionment with politics in general. "What I was clearly talking about was that I'm proud in how Americans are engaging in the political process," Michelle said. “For the first time in my lifetime, I'm seeing people rolling up their sleeves in a way that I haven't seen and really trying to figure this out - and that's the source of pride that I was talking about.”

Yeah, right. And if you believe that, I have a bridge in Brooklyn and some swampland in Florida I’m willing to sell you at bargain basement prices.

Of course, Barack Obama defended Michelle by reading from the same nonsensical script. In other words, he lied through his pearly white teeth, too.

"What she meant was, this is the first time that she's been proud of the politics of America, because she's pretty cynical about the political process, and with good reason, and she's not alone,” the future president opined. “But she has seen large numbers of people get involved in the process, and she's encouraged."

Fast forward 17 years and Michelle and Barry no longer reside at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Instead, they take turns living at their multi-million-dollar mansions on Martha’s Vineyard and in Hawaii while maintaining expensive homes in tony neighborhoods in Chicago and Washington D.C.

I wonder if Michelle is proud of America now… or just laughing all the way to the bank?

Actually, despite her vast wealth and almost mythical status as a liberated female icon, Michelle Obama comes across as a bitter, angry, and visibly unhappy woman. The mainstream media continues to lap up her every word but if you look below the surface you will see a deeply conflicted lady with loads of unresolved personal issues.

In 2022, Michelle admitted to a decade-long strained marriage that the Obamas managed to conceal from the public and a forever fawning press… all to maintain the mirage of a madly-in-love couple for political purposes. You know, those political purposes Michelle supposedly detested but openly embraced if they meant getting Barry elected (and re-elected).

“People think I’m being catty by saying this – it’s like, there were 10 years where I couldn’t stand my husband,” she told a round-table forum on Revolt TV, a Black news station. “And guess when it happened? When those kids were little.”

More recently, Michelle has publicly trashed Barack’s habit of being habitually late, especially early in their marriage, as well as his eating habits. On her “IMO” podcast, Michelle told couples therapist Dr. Orna Guralnik that she felt like telling the former president, “The way you’re chewing makes me want to smack you upside the head.”

When Guralnik tried to soften Michelle’s words, saying that “hearing a person chewing is the same thing as listening to the essence of who someone is,” Michelle would have none of it.

“The girls and I are very irritated with the way Barack chews,” she doubled down on her diss of the 44th President of the United States.

Maybe that’s why Michelle allowed Barack to attend President Trump’s second inauguration and President Carter’s funeral “stag” because she knew both events would be followed by a public meal or two… and she couldn’t bear the thought of listening to Barack go chomp, chomp, chomp.

However, the most serious (and disturbing) example of Michelle’s mental meltdown came last week during an interview with Tracee Ellis Ross to promote her new book, “The Look”.

“Let me explain something to white people,” Michelle said, out of the blue and in an extremely condescending manner. “Our hair comes out of our head naturally in a curly pattern. So when we’re straightening it to follow your beauty standards, we’re trapped by the straightness.”

Say what?

“That’s why so many of us can’t swim and we run away from the water … trying to keep our hair straight for y’all! It is exhausting and it’s so expensive and it takes up so much time. Braids are for y’all so we can work harder and focus on the work,” she continued.

Excuse me?

“Why do we need an act, an act of law, to tell white folks to get out of our hair? Don’t tell me how to wear my hair. Don’t wonder about it. Don’t touch it. Just don’t,” Michelle added.

I don’t know about you, but I’ve never given a moment’s thought to the texture of black women’s hair… or white women’s hair… or Hispanic or Asian or Native American women’s hair. In fact, it doesn’t make the list of the Top 10 Million Things I Wonder About.

So, get over yourself, Michelle, and stop blaming your choice of hairstyle and your inability to swim on white people. That’s not only reverse racism; it’s also borderline psychotic.

And yet, polls continue to show that this woman – who seems to think so highly of herself and so little of others, including her chronically late and masticating-challenged husband – is frequently mentioned by Democrat voters as an ideal presidential candidate.

Only in America… you know, the country she only recently learned to be proud of.
