Michelle Obama says fears about the 2024 White House race keep her up at night.

“I am terrified about what could possibly happen,” Obama said of this year’s presidential election in an interview on Jay Shetty’s “On Purpose” podcast, released Monday.

“Because our leaders matter. Who we select, who speaks for us, who holds that bully pulpit — it affects us in ways that sometimes I think people take for granted,” the former first lady said when asked to name some of her biggest fears keeping her awake at nighttime.

“The fact that people think that government, does it really even do anything? And I’m like, ‘Oh my God, does government do everything for us.’ And we cannot take this democracy for granted. And sometimes I worry that we do,” Obama, 59, said.

I can’t keep track. Is she still proud of this country or not?

Now you know how I felt when a Kenyan ran for U.S. President. We all get terrified. Act like an adult and deal with it.

No Michelle. Government in fact does very little, except to steal from some, and give to others, with a big cut for themselves.

Is it the “next election” keeping you “woke” or what Hillary Clintoon said. “If Trump gets elected, we’re all gonna hang.”

No, you stupid Sasquatch. Government is the bloated, disease carrying tick on the neck of the American People.

Big Mike and the other democrats have absolutely nothing to sell except fear and anxiety; Trump-anxiety, Covid-anxiety, gun-anxiety, weather-anxiety; it keeps their sheep obedient and easily manipulated.

And the average democrat thinks they're the smartest ones in any room they enter.

She and her ilk believe you could not possibly exist without government guidance.

She shouldn’t worry. There’s no indication the DOJ has any interest in the crimes committed by the Bamsters . . .
