Enter Michele Obama stage left. I know people think she is lazy and doesn’t want to work, but her husband was just a puppet. Valerie Jarrett would be back in charge.
She isn’t going to run
She isn’t going to want to have to submit to the 300 Trillion BTU Flame Thrower that is President Trump. Her Ego couldn’t take that, and her popularity would drop, she can’t have that.
She has a giant ego, she isn’t going to run unless it is 110% guaranteed she could win, this isn’t it. She wants to win with a larger margin then her husband, and that isn’t happening if Trump is running against her.
She is very well protected in her media bubble of 100% positive news coverage, that is going to change to moment she announces.
1. That 100% protective media bubble would expand exponentially to protect her, like we've never seen before. Sure, our shallow end of the media pool would work overtime to compensate, but we see how well that works right now, at normal levels of leftist media hysteria.
2. She may very well take on a "Joan of Arc" attitude that the left would absolutely eat up. Sure that didn't work great for the original Joan, but this concept would make Mike a formidable opponent. She doesn't even need to be qualified. Black, female and anti-Trump is all that's needed to light the fires.
Bottom line, she is the real threat in 2020. Hillary wouldn't stand a chance, but Mike would.
