Michelle Obama won't replace Biden in 2024, former senior Obama advisor says

Conservatives have speculated that Michelle Obama could replace Biden in the presidential race.

Former first lady Michelle Obama has no plans on replacing President Joe Biden in the 2024 presidential election, former Obama White House advisor David Axelrod said.

Axelrod told CNN host Michael Smerconish on Saturday that Michelle Obama "never was interested in a political life" even though her husband, former President Barack Obama, ran for U.S. Senate in 2004 and later served in the White House from 2009 to 2017. "She is not someone who likes politics. She doesn't like the tone and tenor of politics."

Speaking to the possibility of Michelle Obama replacing Biden on the Democratic ticket, Axelrod said: "I would be floored if she would consent to that. They feel that they gave 10 years of their life to this. And I'm sure she feels as Barbara Bush did when she said there has to be someone other than the Bushes and the Clintons who could be President of the United States. My guess is that's her attitude."

Conservatives, meanwhile, have speculated that Michelle Obama could replace Biden in the presidential race.

"I think that it should not be shocking to see someone like Michelle Obama take the role of the nomination," former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy told Fox News Digital on Saturday.

After the special counsel's report on Biden's alleged mishandling of classified materials was released, Ramaswamy said that the former first lady offers Democrats "a convenient path out of that problem" because she is "an alternative to Biden that they may view as more palatable in a general election."

Texas GOP Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said Friday on X, formerly Twitter: "I’ve said for over a year many times that Joe Biden would not be on the ticket and Michelle Obama would be the likely nominee. It’s clear the Democrat deep state run by Barack Obama knew they had to take him down to give them a chance in November."

Why would sources mean only that? What are your sources for the law of gravity?

regardless of what happens, dementia joe will go into the Dem convention with nearly all the delegates because 80% of the states have already locked down their dem primary ballots ... if for any reason, dementia joe is incapable of fulfilling the nomination at the Dem convention, the convention will be thrown into total chaos and a massive donnybrook of infighting will ensue, perhaps lasting for weeks ...

She probably thinks America is too ungrateful to appreciate her as president. Plus, its hard enough being a black woman in racist America.

Dunno about that.

B. Obama was reportedly on a lengthy staycation carousing and playing games with Reggie Love during the height of the Benghazi attack and related crisis—an incident that set a modern domestic standard for unaccountability and irresponsibility in high office.

One wonders if Michelle has what it takes to demonstrate that kind of psychopathic contempt for the American people, and more specifically fir our countrymen serving overseas thinking that the White House will surely have their back when the fit hits the Shan.

“ Moochie could be coronated if she wanted. She’d be a runaway winner”

Agree.
I was in a home maybe 6 years where they literally had a shrine to Obama just inside the front door .
His picture and copy of the news paper when who was elected.
Creepy.
But the worship factor would help her if she runs .

How do you know that? Was it all from personal sources?

Big Mike is enjoying the rich lifestyle of early retirement and already put in 8 years doing First Lady work, which he hated and overwhelmed him. He has no interest in spending his 60s pretending to be President and give up the life Barry got for him.

Biden doesn’t work. Michael wouldn’t either. Barack would continue to
run things.

Consider this like Hillary saying she wouldn’t run.

Axelrod would be ‘floored’ if Big Mike accepted the nomination? Gee, puppet master Barack is prepping this big time.

If Joe can hold the job by putting in an hour and a half per day, 2-3 days a week, Moochie can streamline it to 15 minutes per week.
She’ll be there, she’s the only chance they have.
