Obama and Michelle take digs at Trump in 3-hour presidential center opening ceremony with A-listers and ex-presidents
Michelle Obama praised her husbands achievements in and out of office, needling Trump — without naming him — for having propagated “lies” about her husband’s “birthright.…
Former President Barack Obama and ex-first lady Michelle Obama took digs at President Trump during a three-hour ceremony celebrating their legacy at a new center in Chicago — alongside foreign dignitaries, Hollywood stars and other A-listers.
Obama said in his remarks at a dedication ceremony for his new presidential center in Chicago that on the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution, it was important to remember how “radical the whole idea of self-government really was back in 1776.”
“To that point, human history was a tale of conquest and caste and rigid hierarchies. A world where the strong dominated the weak, where power and wealth and status flowed through lineage, and the many were ruled by the few,” the 44th president said.
“But out of the fire and steel of a revolution, a different story took flight on this continent a declaration that we are all created equal, endowed by our creator with certain unalienable rights, and that in the newly independent United States there will be no kings or lower, no serfs or subjects, but only citizens.”
“No Kings” demonstrations have swept through major cities like New York and Washington, DC, since Trump was inaugurated for a second time in January 2025, opposing the president’s immigration agenda and other policies.
Michelle Obama “When fact and fiction run together, when folks seek to stifle speech, limit access to education, devalue diversity, erase the inconvenient parts of our history, when our phones constantly buzz with the latest outrage,” she continued in veiled attacks at the Trump administration and Republicans, “I hope that this place can offer a respite from all that — at least for a little while.”
Comment:
It is the Democrats who want a dictatorship.
Not Trump.
The Democrats are trying to redefine Marxism as "democracy".
It is the Democrats who want to stifle freedom of speech.
It is the Democrats who are using DEI to racially limit access to education.
DEI is just repackaged Affirmative Action illegal racial discrimination in education and in employment.
When the radical racist left uses the word "diversity", it really means that they think that White people are the cause of all of their problems.
