'If [Democrats] were to run Michelle Obama, that would put us in a very difficult position,' former Trump aide Monica Crowley said at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Orlando on Saturday.

t's no secret that body shaming still exists, and it can be especially prevalent for celebrities and people in the public eye.

The American people had spoken,” she began. Obama...

This is a woman who had every opportunity in life — a stable, two-parent upbringing; a middle-class lifestyle; Ivy League undergraduate and law school educations; high-paying jobs created specifically for her; eight years as the most worshiped, photographed woman in the world after Princess Diana; and an equally worshipful post–White House life, complete with $65 million in her pocket. But is Michelle happy? No. Has she ever been happy? No. Michelle buys into Critical Race Theory. The result is that one of the most fortunate women in the world is constantly angry, embittered, and resentful. I suspect that part of...

America is heading towards the abyss – whatever the outcome of the coming election. If Trump wins, we have a fighting chance to save our democracy as we know it.

Michelle Obama – to pick one among a myriad of examples to hand – has declared the coming election to be an election...
