She could have met with the President at 9 AM, but that was inconvenient since she was speaking with someone more important—Mandela. I agree with the President, i.e., you meet with me when I deem it convenient, not when Michelle thinks it is convenient. She is a guest in South Africa. Big diplomatic gaffe on Michelle.
“She could have met with the President at 9 AM, “
Does that mean she was actually extended the offer - or that after the fact, in an “almost attempt” at diplomacy, someone spins that there was an “opening” in the schedule for the President - but moochie was already booked?
Diplomatic gaff indeed, IF it was not just a face saving spin. I suspect the real diplomatic thing that occured was the Presidents people making this unlikely claim that moochie “could have” met with the President.
