If
anyone
is going
to
expertly
shred
the
current
administration
without
so much
as a
single
mention
of our
president's
name,
you can
bet that
it's
going to
be
Michelle
Obama.
Speaking
at a
Sept. 22
tech
conference
in Utah,
the
former
first
lady
answered
questions
in an
hour-long
moderated
conversation
that
shed
light on
her true
feelings
about
the
current
state of
American
politics.
As
initially
reported
by the
Salt
Lake
City
Tribune,
Mrs.
Obama
took the
opportunity
to
address
the
flaws
she sees
in the
nationalist,
"America-first"
rhetoric
that's
played a
central
role in
Donald
Trump's
rise to
power.
"We live
in a big
country
and a
big
world,"
she said
before
noting
that her
husband's
White
House
was one
built on
hope
while
the
current
administration
is one
built on
fear.
Obama
also
expertly
called
out the
hypocrisy
that
often
surrounds
the
conservative
discourse
on
health
care.
"You
can't
just
want to
help
someone
in a
hurricane
and not
make
sure
they can
go to
the
doctor
when
they're
sick,"
she said
to an
audience
over
1,000
people.
But
while
it's
refreshing
to hear
Michelle
Obama's
take on
our
current
political
climate,
she also
made it
very
clear
that
she's
not
interested
in a run
for
office
anytime
soon.
When a
member
of the
crowd
shouted
out that
Obama
should
run for
president,
she was
quick to
shut it
down.
"That's
still
shocking.
Like,
what?"
Obama
said,
adding,
"Are you
kidding
me? No."
Even if
Michelle
Obama
isn't
ready to
run for
president
yet, we
can only
hope
that she
throws
her wit
and sass
into
helping
to get
one of
these
highly
qualified
women
into
office
in 2020.
