Michelle Obama: Trump Administration Hypocrisy Giving Me ‘Low-Grade Depression’
Breitbart - trending ^ | 8/5/2020 | Pam Key

Posted on 08/05/2020 8:52:35 AM PDT by Sir Napsalot

Wednesday, on her new podcast former first lady Michelle ...

Obama said, “I’m waking up in the middle of the night, cause I’m worrying about something, or there’s a heaviness. I try to make sure I get a workout in, although there have been periods throughout this quarantine, where I just have felt too low. You know, I’ve gone through those emotional highs and lows that I think everybody feels, where you just don’t feel yourself, and sometimes there’s been a week or so where I had to surrender to that, and not be so hard on myself. And say, you know what, you’re just not feeling that treadmill right now.”

She added, “It is unusual, and it is, you know, it’s a direct result of just being out of, out of body, out of mind. And spiritually, these are not, they are not fulfilling times, spiritually. You know, um, so I, I know that I am dealing with some form of low-grade depression. Not just because of the quarantine, but because of the racial strife, and just seeing this administration, watching the hypocrisy of it, day in and day out, is dispiriting.”

I reach out to my family, and to my friends, even in this time of quarantine.

Just from the transcript, I will NEVER ever watch any of the Obama podcast or anything Obama for that matter.

Wait till Durham indictments start flying out.....

I was going to click on Report Abuse, but realized that isn’t what the kind of abuse that button is for. LOL
Anyway, let me thank the OP for these words of cheer.
If Michelle is slightly depressed that is a good start.

Oh, bull crap! If what your husband did didn’t cause you massive depression, then I doubt if you know good from bad.

The entire eight long years of the Kenyanesian Usurpation was thoroughly depressing.

You beat me to it. And from Biden’s point of view, Michelle would be a pretty good choice. It would get many unmotivated blacks motivated again.

Just think about how much you hate America, Michelle, and that will make you feel better.
