Michelle Obama Says She Cried “Uncontrollably” After Trump’s Inauguration

In a recent podcast, former First Lady Michelle Obama said that she cried “uncontrollably” after President Trump’s inauguration – and they were hardly tears of joy. 

She made the comments on her new podcast, “The Light Podcast,” which launched last week. Describing her last trip with her husband, Barack Obama, on a presidential plane, after the inauguration of his successor, Michelle Obama said, “When those doors shut, I cried for 30 minutes straight, uncontrollable sobbing, because that’s how much we were holding it together for eight years.”

The podcast is based on conversations in front of live audiences, with moderators including Oprah Winfrey, Tyler Perry, and David Letterman. On its debut, Mrs. Obama also made fun of the size of Trump’s inauguration crowd, a notorious sore point with the 45th president, and more seriously noted the lack of diversity and color onstage at the Capitol as Trump was sworn in as the 45 President.

She added, “After the inauguration – and we know whose inauguration we were at – that day was so emotional on so many different reasons. We were leaving the home we had been in for eight years, the only home our kids really knew.” 

Trump fixated on the size of his crowd, small next to those for Obama, directing his press secretary to lie to reporters about it.

To laughter, Michelle Obama said, “You take your last flight off, flying over the Capitol, where there weren’t that many people there. We saw it.”

On the dais, former President George W. Bush was famously reported to have called Trump’s inauguration speech “some weird shit.”

Obama’s podcast accompanies The Light We Carry, her second book since leaving the White House after the memoir Becoming

    Cried uncontrollably? She’s hardly presidential material.

      CRY ME A RIVER. SHE LOVES ALL THE PERKS SHE HAD AND STILL HAS. NO ONE CARES ABOUT THE OBAMAS. THEY THINK THEY ARE STILL IMPORTANT. BUT I HAVE NEWS FOR THEM. WE DO NOT CARE. STOP HANGING ON, YOU ARE OLD NEWS. WE HAD TO SUFFER 8 YEARS UNDER OBAMA, ANOTHER CORRUPT RACE HATING FAILURE. IT WAS OBAMA THAT STARDET ALL THIS RACE CRAP. TIME HE LEFT US ALONE, BOTH OBAMAS ARE HATERS, DO NOT CARE FOR OUR COUNTRY.

    Maybe she just realized that Barrack was about to have a hell of a lot of free time on his hands……

      May tour kindness be returned, ten fold.

    George Bush is just as crooked as the Obamas.
    It does not surprise me Bush would say that.
    What she thinks or says, who gives a S&&T!

    She cried uncontrollably because the military soldiers were there to take her to Gitmo! She has since had a tribunal and execution. That thing we wee today is an imposter.

    We The People cried uncontrollably, when we realized that an illegal alien had been installed.

      You are absolutely 100% right! What a shame we had to put up with this guy and his ignorant woman he had as a wife! A Kenyan we had as our president, which is totally illegal. But the Dumbo rats and Chicago Mofia didn’t care just so they could get in control of our country! Now they are working through this idiot we have as, I hate to say, President Bimbo Biden we now have and even possibly for a second term, God forbid! In my opinion, only former President Trump or is necessary our Governor Disantis could do that as well and get America back in control of our country by the people and for the people!

    OBAMA WAS A FAILURE 100%. HE THINKS HE IS STILL RELEVANT,BIDEN TALKS TO OBAMA NEARLY EVERY DAY BY PHONE,AND GETS HIS MARCHING ORDERS. THE BIDEN PARTNERSHIP REMAINS INTACT,AND THIS IS OBAMAS 3D TERM.BIDEN PUT 90%OF OBAMAS OLD ADMINISTRATION BACK IN THEIR FORMER POSITIONS, HIRED BY GENDER, COLOR NOT MERIT,.THIS IS THE CONTINUATION OF THE FUNDAMENTAL TRANSFORMATION OF THE U.S.A. BIDEN PUT BACK EVERY ONE OF OBAMAS OLD POLICIES AS FAST AS HE COULD HE SIGNED 37 EXECUTIVE ORDERS TO ACCOMPLISH THIS ON HIS FIRST DAY IN OFFICE. CONTINUING TO FOLLOW OBAMAS AGENDA.TO WEAKEN OUR MILITARY WITH THE WOKE AGENDA AND PURGING OUR TROOPS. WE HAVE NOW 2 WOKE GENERALS WHO SHOULD NEVER WEAR THE UNIFORM THIS IS AUSTIN AND MILLIE, WHO SCREWED UP AFGHANISTAN AND LEFT ALL OUR MILITARY EQUPMENT BEHIND.BOTH ARE TOTAL FOOLS, THERE IS NO MILITARY READINESS, OBAMA THE SUPER FAILURE STILL IN CHARGE, NO WONDER OUR NATION IS READY TO COLLAPSE. OBAMA HATES WHITES IS JUST A TOTAL RACIST FAILURE.

    I try to forget those eight years of the OH. The true beginning of the dividing of this nation.

    The fastest way to render Michelle Obama unelectable is to ask her if she will restore Title IX rules for women’s sports on EVERY level and forever prohibit biological males from competing in women’s sports and forbid them to use the same locker room as women athletes when the women are undressing or showering. She will harumph and stutter and hem and haw and we will know beyond the shadow of a doubt that she must never be allowed to have any political power in the USA. If she cared about women at all, she would have spoken up by now and used her clout to enforce Title IX rules. She and her leftist loon friends are only interested in how they can get elected into power.

    Every comment above has my complete sentiments! So I will not repeat each and every one of them. Maybe Michelle is now back to hating America. She should rot in hell on earth.

    WE THE CITIZENS OF THIS GREAT COUNTRY ”CRIED” FOR 8 LONG MISERABLE YEARS UNDER OBAMAS REGIME. MICHELLE CRIED BECAUSE WE FINALLY HAD THE BEST PRESIDENT EVER. NOT SOME CORRUPT, RACIST WHITE HATING , UNFIT FAILURE WHO TRIED TO DESTROY OUR NATION. SHE CRIED BECAUSE SHE KNEW HER REIN CAME TO A END. WE ALL WHERE ELATED TO SEE THE END OF THIS TRAITOR TO OUR GREAT COUNTRY. IF MICHELLE CRIED IT CLEANED HER SOUL. BUT WE CERTAINLY DID NOT MISS THEM OR EVER WILL.
    NOW THEY ASK IF MICHELLE WOULD BE A GOOD PRESIDENT. HILARIOUS QUESTION.. SHE IS UNFIT. KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT GOVERN OUR COUNTRY. SHE WOULD BE JUST AS BAD AND RACIST LIKE OBAMA. NO THANK YOU, WE HAD ENOUGH OF 8 YEARS OF THIS MEGALOMANIAC, OBAMA .WHO IS SELF CENTERED, NEVER DID ONE THING FOR THE BLACK PEOPLE. WAS JUST POWER CRAZY AND FORGOT WHERE HE CAME FROM. WE NEVER WILL FORGET ”’BENGHAZI”’ JUST ANOTHER OF OBAMAS MANY MISTAKES.

    I know Joe is the hero of free speech, but hey — is LILO even speaking English? An indictment of our education system. I have seen many a third grader with a better grasp of the language.

    It’s eight, not 8. Obama’s not Obamas. Reign not rein, that’s for horses. Were not where. Governing not govern.

    And forget about the syntax, punctuation, and really bad word choices. Like watching a dog trying to speak. It hurts to read this stuff, might cause brain cancer.

    we could care less even if she cried a river as big as the Mississippi
