Michelle Obama Says She “Will Not Be Running For President”

“Mrs. Obama supports President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris’ re-election campaign.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Amid speculation that the Democratic Party will replace Joe Biden before their national convention in August, Michelle Obama’s office has issued a statement categorically denying that she will run for president.

NBC News received a statement that noted “As former First Lady Michelle Obama has expressed several times over the years, she will not be running for president.”

Crystal Carson, director of communications for the former first lady’s office, added “Mrs. Obama supports President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris’ re-election campaign.”

NBC News further notes that Michelle Obama plans to help Biden get reelected, but will play an even more limited role than in 2020.

The report adds that the Biden campaign plans to brandish Michelle Obama’s popularity among Democratic voters to increase voter turnout.

Michelle Obama previously told Oprah Winfrey that politics is “not in my soul,” and that she has no desire to run for president.

Speculation about her being a surprise candidate has been rife, especially after she declared that she is “terrified” of Donald Trump winning another election.

For a time, more bets were being placed on Obama winning the presidency than Joe Biden, even though she isn’t running.

New York Post columnist Cindy Adams has further stoked the rumours by claiming sources told her Barack Obama has polled donors asking how they’d feel about his wife as the Democratic candidate.

Megyn Kelly discussed the rumour on her show earlier this year, noting that the timeline is for a May announcement before the August convention:

Sources close to Trump, including Vivek Ramaswamy, have claimed Democrats are preparing to replace Joe Biden with Michelle Obama and that it doesn’t even really matter if she doesn’t want to run, because she won’t have a choice in the matter.

Trump himself is also adamant that he will not be running against Biden.

In January, JP Morgan Asset Management strategist Michael Cembalest predicted that Joe Biden will not make it to the 2024 election in November and will drop out of the race due to poor health, to be replaced by a new candidate.

Speculation has also focused on California Governor Gavin Newsom, who seems far too engaged in worshipping and fawning over Biden, prompting some to suspect he already knows Biden is stepping down.

LOL, did she say this from one of her luxury homes in Hawaii, Chicago or Washington DC?

Why would she wish to enter the political meatgrinder at this point in her life? She has millions, a media that fawns over her and a life of luxury.

Plus, there would be, uh, “scrutiny”…

The kind that’s not as easy to fake as a birth certificate.

I don’t believe this. My guess is there are plans to get Biden off the ticket, and this is their first step to nominating Big Mike, by declaring (s)he won’t run, in order to gauge interest in Mike running.

The Obamas can run things from their lux mansions, and live like retirees.

So, the Halfrican gave up and it’s going to be Weekend at Joe’s. I wouldn’t be surprised if he was mummified in a couple of years and the Dems just say that he’s not feeling well, or is resting, for several weeks or months after that.

Trump did, because he loves this country and was the only one capable of both winning and standing up to the Deep State. Of course, Big Mike despises this country and there are plenty of other Dems who can win via fraud and fully comply with DS orders.

I think that HE is well aware that HE isn’t eligible, according to the Constitution.

"...no real-world work experience..."
Well, eight years as an obnoxious FLOTUS is more experience than Bozoarrack had when he ran. Demonrats don't care.
