Michelle Obama Calls Out Trump's Refusal To Transition To Biden: 'This Isn’t A Game'

Michelle Obama shared some candid reflections Monday on the current state of the White House, calling out President Donald Trump for his refusal to concede the election and take part in a peaceful transition of power to President-Elect Joe Biden.

“This week, I’ve been reflecting a lot on where I was four years ago. [Hillary] Clinton had just been dealt a tough loss by a far closer margin than the one we’ve seen this year. I was hurt and disappointed — but the votes had been counted and Donald Trump had won. The American people had spoken,” she began.

Obama explained that “one of the great responsibilities of the presidency” is to listen when the American people speak and recalled that she and her husband had instructed their staffs to “run a respectful, seamless transition of power - one of the hallmarks of American democracy.”

“We invited the folks from the president-elect’s team into our offices and prepared detailed memos for them, offering what we’d learned over the past eight years,” she wrote.

Obama admitted that none of that was “easy” for her, as Trump had “spread racist lies about my husband that had put my family in danger.”

“That wasn’t something I was ready to forgive. But I knew that, for the sake of our country, I had to find the strength and maturity to put my anger aside. So I welcomed Melania Trump into the White House and talked with her about my experience, answering every question she had - from the heightened scrutiny that comes with being First Lady to what it’s like to raise kids in the White House,” she wrote, adding that it was the “right thing to do” as “democracy is so much bigger than anybody’s ego.”

“The leftists are specifically, and specially, trained in this.”

PBS & NPR are great examples of well-trained psyop propaganda delivery.

Why are the Obama’s so involved. They should go back to their white privileged Martha’s Vineyard and leave us the hell alone. They’ve done enough commie damage.

as Trump had ‘spread racist lies about my husband that had put my family in danger’

And yet she forgave him!

... omg, I can’t breathe ... so amazing ... we were never worthy of Michelle.

I hope that maybe she can forgive deplorable America, too ... someday.

Or ask for forgiveness ... b/c the rumor is, “nothing can stop what’s coming”.

Hmmm ... coming for her husband? We’ll just have to wait and see ...

“This isn’t a game."

It is as long as your side keeps reacting.

I get no kick from champagne but I sure love pissin'you off.

It wasn’t coincidence that AFTER Joan Rivers said “we know that Michelle is a transvestite and Obama’s gay” on camera that she “mysteriously’ died.

The Left doesn’t play games. They are deadly serious about winning at all costs.

No such animal as “coincidence” when it involves the Communists.
