Republican strategist Karl Rove shut down speculation, often permeated on the far-right, that former first lady Michelle Obama will replace President Biden in the 2024 election, calling it “pure lunacy.”
Rove was reacting to the idea that Michelle Obama, former President Obama’s wife and one of the most popular Democrats in the country, could replace Biden as the Democratic nominee in 2024. The theory has come up in previous elections cycles and was floated by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) last month.
Rove in his remarks on Wednesday suggested it’s possible Biden will not end up being the Democratic nominee, but he said it would definitely not be Michelle Obama, who has repeatedly said she has no interest in the position or in running for office.

A broke clock is right every so often.
“All this for a d@mned flag” isn’t going to push her to the front runner.
If she does and wins that will be Obamas fouth term.....an equation they figured an planned long ago.
Well, if Rove says it…..
It is lunacy.
They already have a stupid fake black female in place who according to the Constitution is next in succession should Biden step down.
Why on earth would they replace her with a different stupid fake black female whose only qualification is having been married to a shitty President.
It is very hard to dislodge a President against his will and old Joe just won't go.
And why should he?
More importantly, who would want him to go?
In a weird way, Joe Biden is the Donald Trump of the Democrat Party - he is delivering for the Hard Left Democrat activist base everything on their agenda that they have worked so hard for and that the Dem pols have promised them for 60 years and never delivered on.
Biden is the Hard Left's dream come true and the activists that control the grass roots of the party are loving the guy. - except for that Israel thing.
History can help us here.
The last incumbent President who dropped out during primary season was LBJ—and that was due to horrid polling numbers in upcoming primary states.
There is no serious opposition to Biden in the Democratic primaries.
Therefore the Democrats are on auto-pilot.
They can scream and wave their arms all they wish—as the Economist article says correctly:
“There is no Plan B.”
So its is frickin true
Is “lunacy” better or worse than “conspiracy”?
If Joe is still around, he will be the Rat nominee. Thus ensuring Obama’s fourth term.
If his body checks out like his brain has, the Rats will replace him with the Mooch.
Thus ensuring Obama’s fourth term.
Why?
Because Michelle Obama is well liked among women in general. She is idolized by the left. She can actually be somewhat charming in person.
Personally, I think Carl is correct. Michelle has absolutely no interest in being POTUS. She hated the attention on her when she was the first lady. The scrutiny would be 100 times that as POTUS.
But when you have a popularity contest between Michelle and Kamala it is not even close. Michelle is the prom queen. Kamala is the ho.
It’s always conspiracy until the conspiracy comes true.
I don't underestimate the stupidity of voters. Our current President has dementia, and the nuclear codes.
It’s a lot of work for a tranny keeping presentable and passable all the time. i.e. worrying about that 5 oclock shadow etc..
I agree - main reason Michelle Obama is not going to be the nominee is the fact that she has zero interest.
At the same time, I think people are way underestimating the challenge she would face if she were to throw her hat in the ring.
First, popularity as a First Lady does not automatically translate to popularity as a Presidential candidate. You said it yourself - the scrutiny would be 100 times what she faced as First Lady. The gloves would come off, and unflattering video clips of her saying anti-American things would go viral. Her popularity with Democrats may hold up - or may not - the people making this decision would be rolling the dice.
Secondly, the mechanics of making her the nominee are not so simple. She would effectively be cutting in line, ahead of every Democrat Presidential wannabe without ever having to win a single primary or debate.
I don’t think even Democrat voters would appreciate the nominee being anointed for them like that.
So, if this was going to happen, I would think it would already have happened by now, in time for
1) the idea to be floated for public approval
2) her to participate in debates
3) her to enter primary contests.
I think at this point by far the easier and more likely path is to have Biden step down at the last minute, making Harris the incumbent POTUS and default nominee. The puppeteers is running Biden would have no problem at all with her low IQ.
I guarantee this is their October surprise.
Karl, quit acting like you’re on our side.
You support people who won’t stand against her agenda stridently. At the
end of the day, you’re all headed to the same destination.
“SHE HAS EXPERIENCE RUNNING WHAT?”
Her lack of experience will not matter to Dems because Obama will advise her.
She clearly verbally says out loud: “ All This For A Damned Flag “ and Hussein shakes his head in agreement, forgetting the Camera Never Blinks on a POTUS.
