Michelle Obama rips Trump in new book

By DEB RIECHMANN
48 minutes ago

WASHINGTON (AP) — Former first lady Michelle Obama blasts President Donald Trump in her new book, recalling how she reacted in shock the night she learned he would replace her husband in the Oval Office and tried to “block it all out.”

In her memoir “Becoming,” set to come out Tuesday, Michelle Obama denounces the president for bragging in 2005 about sexually assaulting women. She says his comments on the infamous “Access Hollywood” tape meant, “I can hurt you and get away with it.”

She also accuses Trump of using body language to “stalk” his 2016 opponent, Hillary Clinton, during an election debate. She says Trump followed Clinton around the stage, stood too close and tried to diminish her presence.

The Associated Press purchased an early copy “Becoming.”

Michelle Obama with the current trophy-wife #3 Mrs. Trump, it makes me sick that Melmac has the title. She has done nothing to warrant being called the First Lady, and I'm not even going to delve into her porno shots. Michelle Obama was such a class act, a gracious person and visible presence in our lives for eight years. She was a real person to whom we could all relate. She was never inappropriate, wore clothing with insulting messages or put herself above the women of America. She was warmth, poise, style (without spending taxpayer dollars like they were her personal credit account) and tact.

Lordy, I sure do miss her.

His need to intimidate people is very telling of the kind of twisted person that he is.

The birther shit put Michelle Obama's entire family at risk.

TrumPutin deserves worldwide scorn for that, even if you could ignore everything else he's done.
