I realize I’m far from being the first person to point this out, but is there a more ungrateful beneficiary of America’s demonstrably non-racist, non-misogynist character than former First Lady Michelle Obama?
Michelle O., twice a First Lady, has frequently polled in years past as America’s most admired woman. She has a net worth of $70-120 million, depending on the source. Her memoir Becoming was the bestselling book of 2018 in the U.S.; her more recent book The Light We Carry was a #1 USA TODAY bestseller. Her new $50 coffee-table book The Look, devoted to her “style evolution,” is a New York Times #1 bestseller as well. Her primary residence in Washington D.C. is an 8-bedroom, 8200-square foot mansion; she and husband Barack also share a 6-bedroom, 6,243-square foot Chicago home and an $11.75 million, 6,892-square foot Martha’s Vineyard vacation/summer retreat with seven bedrooms, 8.5 bathrooms, a pool, barn, and ocean views set on 29.3 acres. Inexplicably, she has been the cover model for nearly every women’s fashion magazine, while First Lady Melania Trump – an actual model – has fewer women’s fashion magazine covers to her credit post-2016 than male stars Timothée Chalamet or Harry Styles.
And yet this celebrated woman seethes with rage and bitterness at the country she claims is systemically racist and misogynist. In the latest example of her relentless grievance-mongering, Michelle appeared on the Call Her Daddy podcast, which depressingly has nearly 2 million YouTube subscribers, to hammer away at her dark fantasy that misogyny remains a factor in our national elections. She predictably named former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and former Vice President Kamala Harris, both failed presidential candidates, to make her case.
“We would just be silly to think that there aren’t just some gut kind of, I don’t know, like, we’re not even analyzing what those feelings are about because we’re trying to pretend like it’s all better,” she complained inarticulately in the episode released Wednesday.
She later added, “There are men out there that were not [going to] vote for a woman.” No doubt. But I would wager that there are many, many more women – and many men – out there who would vote for a woman regardless of her qualifications, simply because she’s a woman. Democrats will turn out in record numbers not to vote for the best candidate for America, but to score that historic first female President of the United States, because Democrats are driven by identity politics.
She said negative attitudes toward women remain “deeply embedded” in American culture, preventing many voters from believing they can submit to a woman president. This is absolute nonsense. The Left clings like a barnacle to this long-outdated Handmaid’s Tale fantasy that women in America are oppressed, second-class citizens.
This feminist gripe is an ongoing theme for Michelle. During a November 2025 appearance at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, for example, she told a crowd of women that the country was “not ready” for a woman to lead.
“That’s why I’m like, don’t even look at me about running, because you all are lying. You’re not ready for a woman. You are not,” she said. “You know, we’ve got a lot of growing up to do, and there’s still, sadly, a lot of men who do not feel like they can be led by a woman, and we saw it.”
“Let’s look at the fact that we’ve had two really qualified female candidates,” she declared rather hilariously, referring to Hillary and Kamala. No serious person believes either of those two unlikeable harpies was “really qualified.” The corrupt, vindictive, ruthlessly power-mad Hillary isn’t qualified for anything but prison, and Kamala isn’t qualified even for that. If I were her cellmate, I would beg to be thrown into solitary rather than listen to her cackle and pontificate about being “unburdened by what has been.”
In any case, Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer disagrees (this has to be the first time I’ve quoted the tyrannical Whitmer favorably). She said she believes the nation is ready for a woman president. “The question comes down to a choice between two people, and what we saw in this last election, while Kamala Harris didn’t beat President Trump, we saw women get elected across the country,” Whitmer told NPR in an interview this week. “We saw women win up and down the ballot in hard, important states to win, so I do think there’s an appetite… I just, for whatever reason, we have not had a woman president yet. I think we will at some point in the near future.”
Even Bill Maher, who occasionally gets things right like a broken clock, has pushed back against Michelle’s gripe. “To me, this is logical fallacy 101,” Maher said during a panel discussion after Michelle’s November pronouncement that we’re not ready for a female president. “Maybe it just has to be the right one.”
Former DNC chair Donna Brazile agreed with Maher too, citing the millions of people who voted for Hillary and Kamala, and polling showing that 80% of Americans say they’d support a female president. “So the idea that America isn’t ready is bulls—,” Brazile said (this has to be the first time I’ve quoted Brazile favorably, too).
Left-leaning Straight Shooter host Stephen Smith also pushed back:
Weren’t there White women who voted for Donald Trump? Not just White men. Didn’t the blacks show up for Hillary Rodham Clinton? Didn’t Hispanics show up for Hillary Rodham Clinton? Wasn’t it Hillary Rodham Clinton who spent the last few days neglecting to campaign in places like Michigan or Wisconsin or Pennsylvania or places like that while [Trump] was everywhere? Y’all remember that?
He added that while Kamala lost in 2024, it was more likely due to Democrats running decrepit former President Joe Biden until the very last moment, not Americans being unwilling to vote for a female candidate: “Nobody told y’all to hold on to Joe Biden for dear life until July of that summer, when there was evidence that showed months earlier that he wasn’t ready anymore.”
Regardless of what ingrate Michelle Obama keeps insisting – despite being her own best refutation – America is not a racist, misogynist country. Americans will vote for a female presidential candidate when one appears who clearly is the best person to lead the country, not just because Democrats keep clamoring for one.

I’d vote for someone such as Maggie Thatcher any day. Michelle Obama, Hillary Clinton, and Kamala Harris are not remotely close to Maggie.
Here’s today’s tough biology question for Democrats: how can doctors tell so quickly if a newborn is a male or female?
Could it be that Michelle is bent out of shape because she’s not the president? And might it be possible that Hillary and Kamala didn’t win their presidential bids because voters thought they weren’t sufficiently qualified? And is it possible that Kamala, Hillary and Michelle aren’t likable people? I don’t think these are complicated questions to answer.
The smug bitch was put in charge of a Diversity & Inclusion department at Chicago hospital for $317,000 a year . . . just as Jug-eared Barry became Senator.
Simple question:
When the whining bitch left to become 1st lady, did the hospital bother to refill that position?
Hilary’s description of half of Republican supporters as “deplorable” shocked every decent American.
America can do without some Ding-Bat who supports Open Borders a Disarmed Public and Globalism
You forgot to mention Michelle Obama’s Hawaii mansion on the ocean which, by the way, must not be rising or the Obamas wouldn’t have dared build a home on that spot!
Whatever this woman says is blah, blah, blah! Shes a leftist—that tells me all I need to know about her! Boring!
when women like michelle spend all their waking hours whining and moaning about how bad life is for them and all of the female anti ice imbeciles running around breaking fed. laws the last person you want to see run for president is a woman . eve the first woman to be deceived , nothing has changed .
Michele Still Whining
Be respectful! It’s “Michael”.
one other point , how are democrats going to vote for a woman when they dont know what one is ? ketanje brown doesnt know because she not a biologist! . a man could be a trans woman and they would by their own admission then have to vote for him /her . you cant make this stuff up .
Not him/her, it is the correct term.
I’m sure America will be ready for a female president when Tulsi Gabbard is the candidate.
Ms. Obama had plenty of opportunity to elect the country’s first female VP in 2012 with Sarah Palin. Lemme guess that if her own husband wasn’t running for reelection that same year, that she would have voted for her? Of course not. According to her own pretzel logic, that would make her a misogynist.
I’m ready for an American Maggie Thatcher. I think Sarah Huckabee Sanders would be terrific. I hope JD Vance picks her in 2028.
It’s not that we’re not ready, it’s that we’re not stupid. Frankly, I would count Mike’s wife as the first female president.
I have to disagree with you. Lord Barackkk (pbuh) may be the 1st (half) African-American, openly gay president, and the cowardly little boy in the big boy suit, but Mike’s hubby was not a female.
Michael,
What does that even mean……Female?
What Michael is really saying is that America is simply not ready for her and her “For the first time in my lifetime I’m proud of my Country” Crap.
Oh the temerity of this self hating, anti-American thing. I wouldn’t vote for her for dog catcher. After all I didn’t vote for its husband. And given the absolute stupidity of 99% of blacks in government I wouldn’t vote for any of them.
Theres this old movie KISSES FOR MY PRESIDENT about Women who gets elected President and these even a Popeye Cartoon where Olive Oyl gets elected
Given that her remark is self-referential, yes, she’s right. America will never be ready for her, or someone even superficially like her, to be president.
How irrelevant Michelle Obama always has been. Mikey’s bitterness in all her financial blessings and being a First Lady of the USA is appalling as the devil himself. No, Mikey Obama, if a woman steps up to be as great and does what President Trump is doing, that woman is a shoe in!
It’s just you, and HellAry Klingon and Cackling Kamalala that are vomitous pukes that not even the most die hard demoncrap will vote for.
Ha Ha Ha

Eternity would not be long enough for us to “prepare” for another Obama presidency. As for a woman in the slot, try offering 1 whose leadership skills and proven policy “trajectory” are in line with Constitutional American values, and see what happens! What we do NOT need, or want , is yet another delusional pathological narcissist in the WH.
Many mention Ms. Thatcher as an example.
Ms. Thatcher succeeded because the UK is nothing like the United States.
The United Kingdumb has become a dependent nation – it has not been a serious nation for decades. Ms. Thatcher gave it a chance to fool the world for another twenty years but the window dressing and the fancy decorating have lost their luster.
It is impossible for a woman to be the President of the United States with the quality of leadership we see in modern women. It would not have been a good idea twenty years ago.
Now it would be Jonestown times one hundred million.
In this case, Michael is correct. The irony of trans men lamenting women presidents …
I agree with rickmcinnis. Quality of leadership matters. As a woman myself, there have been NO FEMALE candidates that I would have trusted to become POTUS. I haven’t been happy with a lot of the MALE candidates that have been floated in the past couple of decades. We don’t have candidates that understand the Constitution that they are SUPPOSED to be upholding and that should matter to every voter. I will NEVER vote for a woman just to make history. I actually have a brain. I also have family and would like for them to grow up in the American Republic and not some socialist hellhole. As for MO, perhaps she is making all of these statement because she KNOWS she would NEVER WIN so if she goes around BEFORE they start floating candidate on the Dem side, she will not be asked because of her statements. Saves her the embarrassment of LOSING.
Michelle has such an inflated sense of self-importance.
I will happily vote for a woman but not because she’s a woman. When a woman runs with the qualifications, values, and backbone to support America’s Constitution and stand up to enemies foreign and domestic, she will have my vote. Many have pointed to Margaret Thatcher, a great example, but one might also remember Golda Meir in Israel. Michele, Hillary, and certainly Kamala had none of these traits. Michele, along with Barack, are devotees to the Sol Olinsky playbook, dividing America and hoping to destroy it. Hillary was emailing her daughter during Benghazi rather than tending to her post and enriching herself at every opportunity as First Lady(?) and Secretary of State, and Kamala supported open borders (not the defense of our nation) and should have initiated the 25th amendment action against a demented Joe Biden somewhere during his term. Her answer to any tough issue is to kackle.
She hasn’t yet realized that Women’s Lib has failed miserably, neither is she able to understand that gender or race don’t matter in the least when choosing a leader – only character and achievements are to be considered.
I take it that Mike is speaking as an outsider.
Didn’t Joan Rivers say that you had a trannie first lady, just before she surprisingly died during a minor operation?
“… has frequently polled in years past as America’s most admired woman.” Hard to fathom until you recall that the only apparent function of a poll is building a narrative and in this case, the narrative is to try to gaslight the mob into ignoring the reality that Big Mike has raised unlikability to an artform.
“Michelle Still Whining That America’s ‘Not Ready’ for Female President.” What the First Lady complainer, grumbler, bellyacher, crybaby, moaner, griper, kvetch, and malcontent does not say is the female president has to be a secular-progressive Democrat. For if America elects a female conservative Republican, it will not count in Michelle’s complaining opinion.
Leave it up to the liberals to make a point about men not voting for women and then giving three of the worst examples of nominees that are so unqualified that it is humorous. Men have been deterred from voting for women with good reason. We have seen the hundreds, if not thousands of women coming unglued and acting like they belong in a nut house. We have observed the increase in anti-male rhetoric from females who are narcissists. There are consequences for trying to cut men off and berate them.
Men are finally realizing that they are being demeaned and minimalized for being men has its consequences. Feminists are creating a distance between men and women that was inevitable from the start. Feminists are rabid man haters that have ruined their chances of comingling with respectable men. There is a sea change going on and it is not in the women’s favor. Men are wising up to the vile machinations of women, especially liberal white women.
Will there ever be a time when men will consider voting for females? I don’t think it is in the near future.
But we had a female prez- her name was Barack Hueissain Obama. Sorry to spill the beams Michelle…
First she has to know a male from female. Has to know only two sexes. Has to know how to treat everyone the same, no matter their race. Has to know we the people aren’t the piggybank. Needs to understand she is not the only person who matters. Understands corruption is breaking laws. Understands that Hollywood isn’t more important than the American people. Knows we don’t work for her that she actually works for us. Doesn’t trash the middle class and put down the poor. Understands she flat don’t matter.
