Trump team ‘having a good laugh’ over Michelle Obama’s ‘deliberate’ decision to skip inauguration: ‘Didn’t expect her to come anyway’

MAGA sources could not care less that Michelle Obama is snubbing Donald Trump’s inauguration, a source tells Page Six.

“They are having a good laugh,” a source says of those involved in planning the inaugural festivities. “They didn’t expect her to come anyway.”

One Republican source speculated, “It’s obvious that this was her way of protesting Trump. She hates him.”

Michelle attended Trump’s inaugural in 2017, and said of the experience on “The Light Podcast,” “To sit on that stage and watch the opposite of what we represented on display — there was no diversity, there was no color on that stage. There was no reflection of the broader sense of America.”

She also took jabs at Trump during the Democratic National Convention, saying, “For years, Donald Trump did everything in his power to try to make people fear us. See, his limited, narrow view of the world made him feel threatened by the existence of two hard-working, highly educated, successful people who happen to be Black.”

A Democratic source tried to play down the diss, noting, “Donald Trump and Melania didn’t go to Joe Biden’s inauguration and nobody cared. No one said anything.”

Barack and Michelle Obamas’ office announced this week that Michelle will skip the 60th Inaugural Ceremonies on Jan. 20th, but that the former president will attend.

Michelle also skipped Jimmy Carter’s funeral on Jan. 9 because she was on an “extended vacation” in Hawaii.

She would have apparently been seated next to Trump.Michelle also skipped Jimmy Carter’s funeral on Jan. 9 because she was on an “extended vacation” in Hawaii.

It looks like Mooch is not making much of a dent here. With her anti-Trump, no-show snit. One of the main protests in the 2017 Trump inauguration, was the woman’s match, with Madonna out in front.
There is no woman’s march this time around.

She can’t stand the comparison with Melania there.

And Melania is much more of a woman and far more beautiful than Big Mike could ever hope to be.

I would have expected her to show up. Maybe she has a severe case of TDS.

Barry is like "whatever".

Michelle may be reading tales of cynical GOP laughter about her remarks, and think; “Just for that disrespectful response, I think I WILL ATTEND the inauguration. I’ll show them!”

These are horrible people. Obama is the worst thing that has ever happened to this country.

I’d say she hates herself, too.

There’s always a first when it comes to going against the status quo they call protocol.
Blacks have always taken the lead. I’m ok with it. There are way too many traditions that need to be scrapped.
