An interview with Michelle Obama has sparked a firestorm of specuIation over the First Lady’s push for the US Presidency. Ms Obama expressed her fear about the potential outcome of the 2024 eIection as ageing combatants Biden and Trump prepare to lock horns again at the polls in comments made on the “On Purpose with Jay Shetty” podcast.
Currently the frontrunner for the 2024 Republican presidentiaI nomination, Mr Trump is leading President Biden in five out of six key swing states and has reignited his supporter base following his controversial ousting from the top role in 2020.
Despite facing legal troubles and multiple indictments at both state and federal levels, Mr Trump maintains his innocence, and national polls show him leading Biden.
But Ms Obama says whether her nation Iikes it or not, America is defined by its leaders. She called voiced her opposition to injustice, ego, greed, racism, and ignorance, condemning what she described as childish leadership and emphasising the significance of the tone and tenor of political messages.
I am terrified about what could possibIy happen, because our leaders matter, she said, arguing that “we cannot take this democracy for granted, and sometimes I worry that we do”.
