Former President Donald Trump recently called out former First Lady Michelle Obama at his Madison Square Garden rally in New York City. Claiming Obama had been “nasty” to him, Trump suggested she had made a “big mistake.” Following his comments, the left had a meltdown on social media, blasting Trump for the remark,
Trump said during the rally, “You know who is nasty to me, Michelle Obama.” He added, “I always tried to be so nice and respectful. Oh, she opened up a little bit of a … little bit of a box. She opened up a little bit of something. She was nasty. Shouldn’t be that way. That was a big mistake that she made.”
The Kamala HQ X account shared the clip, claiming Trump went on an “unhinged rant” when voicing his complaint about the way Michelle Obama treated him. “Trump goes on unhinged rant about Michelle Obama and hints at seeking retribution,” the account wrote. The post garnered comments from many liberals echoing this sentiment.
Others interpreted Trump’s comments as a threat to former the former first lady. “Hope @SecretService is paying attention. DJT’s statement on Former First Lady, Michelle Obama, is quite inflammatory “Nasty to me….That was a big mistake that she made”. & reminiscent of what he said about @Mike_Pence on Jan 6th,” one person wrote.
Another Kamala Harris supporter commented, “I tell you what. Former President Obama is not gonna pull that sh*t Ted Cruz did when trump attacked his wife—if trump dares to fix his nasty mouth to come for former First Lady Michelle Obama, you people won’t be questioning whether Barack Obama is Black enough.”
“Lie. Trump literally says he tried to be nice to her and she was mean to him instead,” the account posted. LIE: Trump goes on “unhinged rant” and says he will seek retribution on Michelle Obama. TRUTH: Trump literally did not say this. Kamala HQ is grasping at straws as their days of sharing misinformation are numbered.
However, Kamala HQ was quickly fact-checked by KamalaHQLies, an account solely dedicated to debunking the posts from the former account. Offering a rebuttal, KamalaQLies said, “Here are the facts: Trump literally says he always tried to be “nice and respectful.” He then says she made a “big mistake” after being nice to her.”
Grammy-nominated songwriter and political commentator Vinnie James called out the left for its incessant attacks against Trump, labeling it hypocritical to hone in on Trump’s comments. “Kamala… the LAST PERSON to be talking about retribution is a Democrat. Democrats have spent the last EIGHT YEARS punishing Trump and Trump supporters for having the guts to stand against the Democrat attempt to erode our rights and liberties. The whole world knows it,” he wrote.
Other Trump supporters disputed the narrative that Trump was “unhinged” in his comments. “Unhinged? Seriously? Why do you treat your followers like their stupid. Trump wasn’t unhinged & anyone who watches this can see that. It’s just sad that you take advantage of your followers kind hearts by lying. That’s just sad,” they said.
