MICHELLE OBAMA APPEARED on The Tonight Show to continue promoting her most recent book The Light We Carry. On the show, she took the opportunity to reflect on what it was like to return to the White House last fall after spending eight years there as the First Lady. She and former president Barack Obama went back to hang their portraits after not being invited to do so while Donald Trump was in office.
“It was really a beautiful experience,” she recalled. “It’s a tradition – you do your official portraits, the next president is supposed to invite you back to hang them. We were never invited back, so these pictures have been done for a long, long time… So it was good to see everybody.”
Obama also discussed how she feels that change happens best in “small bites” and her continued belief in the motto “When they go low, we go high.”
“People still keep asking me, ‘You still mean that? Still?'” she said. “I didn’t know I’d be known for that line, but I’m proud of that. People ask me, ‘Do I ever go low’ and yeah, I go low. I go low a lot of times. But I think for people who have a platform who are being looked up to, we have a responsibility to stay high. Because kids are watching us. If you need to go low, go low at home.”

She couldn’t manage a cap gun.
I’s thinking Mooselle will jump into the running for the nomination.
I saw her in that clip, rolling her eyes at whatever they were saying but what made it a joke is her elbows on the table attitude and yes the shoveling in the food. 🙄
Yeah, I get the angle of, “The Jeffersons” but at least George and Weezie were good hard working people.
You are living not far away spying on the White House...we are not stupid you racist POS
And what Obama, Jarrett, McDonough and Biden plotted to do on Jan. 5, 2017.
Most people don’t bring trash back into their house once it’s been put to the curb.
Why would they be invited back after all the money it cost and time it took to have it fumigated after their departure?
And they were funny and lovable...unlike the Obamanations.
She knows good and well if Trump had ever invited the Obamas back, Michelle would have gone on talk show after talk show, describing how ‘weird, cringey and more than a little bit insulted’ she felt just receiving such an invitation from ‘that guy’.
You have an excellent memory...
It never would have happened without odumbo’s okaying it.
The British did not torch the Marine Barracks.
RE: The British did not torch the Marine barracks.
Right. Here is a summary from marines.mil website:
Cockburn and Gen. Ross, commanding the British troops, spared it to use as their headquarters, then neglected to apply the torch upon their withdrawal. Another contends that Marines at the Battle of Bladensburg so impressed Gen. Ross that he ordered the house and the Barracks spared as a gesture of soldierly respect.

As I recall, just after the 1960 election Eisenhower met with Kennedy in early December. It was cordial and that was it. I think they met once again a few weeks later, but Jackie was not invited. If she had been, rest assured she would not have been the Whiner that Moochelle is.
It took 3 years to clean out the stench and filth the animals left behind, it was a miracle we didn't have to burn it down to the ground and build a new one...
When the next Kenyan aboriginals get elect to the Presidency (and they will), the WH needs to be moved to the DC Zoo...
When you rid yourself of garbage you never let it return. It’s a pretty basic concept.
It’s hard to be gracious to corrupt people who spied on an opposing campaign and administration, as well having committed sedition. But I’m sure it’s because both of them had parents that had sex with a black person . . .
Maybe it’s because her husband put the CIA on Trump… illegally.
