Bliss, straight up the vid you posted of Michelle Obama is flat out sexist and racist. It reinforces the stereotype and lie that somehow Michelle Obama has a penis and isn't really a woman.
Are you fucking kidding me??
White conservatives have tried to peg Michelle Obama as an angry Black woman since Obama first ran for POTUS. Are you really that clueless?? Search YT and you'll find the former First Lady discussing how frustrating it is for her to deal with that stereotype promoted by conservative White men, because something about her INTIMIDATES them.
The comparison between Melania and Michelle was that Barack in vid clips is shown displaying genuine respect and affection for his wife, while Trump in similar clips treats Melania like an afterthought and a non-entity. Melania's body language and facial expressions are apparent. For some reason she seems extremely unhappy when she's around her husband.
People are glossing over the fact that Melania hasn't yet moved into the WH with her husband, as if they're the first wealthy family that's ever been elected to the presidency.lol
FDR in adjusted dollars was probably wealthier than Trump, and his wife Eleanor is rumored by historians to have been a lesbian later in life. and yet these two managed to live in the WH together. So where is Melania???
THe Kennedy's I'm sure would have preferred to have stayed in Massachusetts when JFK was elected, but no, they moved their entire brood to D.C. the day Jack was elected.
Trump is for some bullshit reason given credit for 'raising' outstanding children.LOL. Trump didn't raise his kids, their mothers' did.
IMO the Trump family is all kinds of dysfunctional and my proof is how Melania seems so unhappy.
Anyway, Michelle Obama has been the target of slimy White conservative men for almost 10 years for absolutely no reason at all except that she didn't fit into their definition of femininity. It's similar to the non-stop attacks HRC faced from the right wing back in the late 1980s and early 1990s over made up. conspiracy crap.
Respecting your wife doesn't mean you fear your spouse. Somehow you don't get that.
Bliss, you present yourself as a fair and rational thinker despite your political leanings, so why are you attacking Michelle Obama??
And I really don't understand your rabid defense of Trump when you claim you didn't even vote for him.smh
Are you really going to compare the random looks of frustration by Michelle Obama to our first few glimpses of Melania as First Lady and how she looks like a hostage victim???
Most people have recognized something looks off with Melania, and yet you've taken this tit for tat attack on Michelle Obama.
Forget what kind of POTUS or businessman Donald is and will be. As a HUMAN BEING, Donald Trump is an ass. Even most conservatives from polls don't like him as a person.
Still you defend this guy full throatedly even though you didn't vote for him. Strange.
I'm not defending Trump, l'm defending Melania.
Because evidently, it's perfectly fine for you and every other left winger here to assault her character, yet in the video, when BARACK HIMSELF says he's afraid of Michelle, lol..you want to blame "White Conservative males".
Spare me the bullshit, AB.
It's ok for the alt-Lefties to call Melania emotionally and physically abused, to say she is treated horribly, that he doesn't love her, that she's his sex toy, his hostage, that she's a slut, a ho, a gold-digger or whatever else you can pull out etc..
But dare say Michelle wears the pants, then it's a "made up lie by weak Conservative White men because they think she looks manly". Yeah, keep thinking that..of course it has nothing to do with her behaviour towards Barack, particularly in his green years.
I remember an interview a long time ago where she was being very condescending towards him in the interview, not unlike how husbands are portrayed in sitcoms.
And l recall the fallout that suggested she needs to put the brakes on her attitude towards him because he is now the POTUS and she can't be mocking him like that in interviews because it undermines his position of Authority that he must exude.
Addmiitedly she did eventually calm down publicly once she became accustomed him being the POTUS ( before he won the election, she was THE main bread winner bringing home $270,000 a year) and she made it clear in an interview that 'she clearly couldn't have married him for his money, because he had none."
You can sit here all day and deny that Michelle doesn't dominate him, pretend that she is docile and submissive and he's the boss..l really don't care because you're lying to yourself or maybe just lying here.
No way in hell does Barack rule.
He said himself that Michelle was upset when he put time into his Seanate work..
Quote:
“Leaning down to kiss Michelle goodbye in the morning, all I would get was a peck on the cheek. My wife’s anger toward me seemed barely contained.”
I think maybe now he might get his freedom and they will spend more time together (or apart, hello full-time golfing, lol)...So who knows. (I'm banking on the latter)

So what if Melanie stays with her son until he finishes out the year. Since when is this First couple conventional? Presidents are not obligated or required to live there. IGeorge Washington didn't live there..In fact Trump has the plane and the money to commute if he so wished to, but he chose to not, just like he chose to decline the $400,000 Presidential salary. (What a "monster!")
U mean seriously..THAT'S the worst thing you can find on Melanie as his wife and FLOTUS...that she puts her son first and appears subbmissive to her powerful husband?
Yet once again, to point out your hypocrisy..you state Michelle is too..but somehow that suddenly become a good thing to you because it's '
Michelle'?. Please.
