Speaking on Revolt, the mother-of-two described her children as ‘terrorists’ who have ‘demands’

Early in December, she spoke with Revolt and said: ‘People think I’m being catty for saying this: it’s like, there were 10 years where I couldn’t stand my husband.

‘And guess when it happened? When those kids were little.

‘For 10 years, while we’re trying to build our careers and worrying about school and who was doing what and what, I was like, ‘Argh, this isn’t even’.’

‘And guess what? Marriage isn’t 50/50, ever. Ever. There are times I’m 70, he’s 30. There are times he’s 60, 40. But guess what? Ten years.

‘We’ve been married 30. I would take 10 bad years over 30 — it’s just how you look at it. People give up — ‘Five years; I can’t take it’.’

After several years on the presidential campaign, Malia, 24, and Sasha, 21, moved with their family into the White House when they were seven and ten years old.

When they were young, Michelle also referred to her two girls as “terrorists” and claimed that “they have demands”.

She added: ‘Little kids, they’re terrorists. They have demands. They don’t talk. They’re poor communicators. They cry all the time.

‘They’re irrational. They’re needy. And you love them. And so you can’t blame them, right? … So you turn that ire on each other.’

The former First Lady also mentioned having a black friend from her children’s school in another part.

She said: ‘The first friend I made was a black mom. We were in a predominantly white school and I was like Sasha you and Olivia are going to be friends because she’s a black girl.

‘And they didn’t even like each other. I was like I want to get to know her mother because I wanted the black mom experience.

‘It’s like how you dealing with… and which teachers to look out for.’

In 1989, Barack and Michelle connected at a Chicago law firm. Their current estimated net worth is $70 million.

An agreement for their memoirs was allegedly worth $65 million in 2017, while their Netflix deal was expected to be worth roughly $50 million.

Michelle went on to say that, despite their disagreements, she always admired her husband.

She added: ‘I mean, you could be mad at him, but do you still look at him and go, ‘I’m not happy with you, but I respect you. I don’t agree with you, but you’re still a kind, smart person’?

‘The feelings are going to change over time.’

Depending on where you sit on the political spectrum, you either think the Affordable Care Act, colloquially known as Obamacare, is either a socialist takeover of American health care, long past due regulation on a parasitic insurance industry, or a compromised piece of legislation that did more to help the insurance providers than patients.

  1. Hands up who doesn’t know Michelle is Michael LaVaughn Robinson. Just like her daddy, Satan. One lie upon another.

  2. Michael is spewing this garbage for publicity — to remain in the news/entertainment cycle. If I were to guess, I would say he is planning on political activity in some capacity.

    I would not vote for this drag queen to be “head sewer cleaner” in Clown World.
