I think we all have the feeling that this is ridiculous, but I'd like to see an actual comparison.
I don't begrudge her the folks who are supposed to keep her hair looking good and keep her dressed well, though they have often failed spectacularly in Mrs. Obama's case. One of the "duties" of the First Lady is to show up and look nice on certain occasions. I suspect that Mrs. Obama wears what she wants no matter what anyone else says, so don't really blame her wardrobe disasters on her staff.
It's all the staff that makes it appear that she has a "real job" that I think is excessive.
Even with all that staff, she's been almost as big a failure as First Lady as her husband has been as President.
Of course, the FLOTUS is supposed to look good and all that , she needs a staff and that's fine. It's the lavish vacations, the separate flights from her husband, going to the same place. The separate security, staff, jet etc, that's what should have people ticked off. Then with the lavish lifestyle, preaching to the rest of us about how fat & lazy we all are.
