Michelle Obama talks about how DISAPPOINTED she was by Donald Trump being elected twice by many of the same Americans who once voted for Barack Obama
She also says Trump voters shouldn’t automatically be labeled as racist, but rather seen as people who are DESPERATE and struggling with the cost of living, adding that she feels empathy toward them
“I was deeply, deeply disappointed… but my husband is such a good person to have for context and clarity, and he’s right. That outcome had as much to do with people’s pain and confusion about where they are in their lives”
