“I cried for 30 minutes”

After Donald Trump, 76, was inaugurated as president in January 2017, she and her family boarded Air Force One government jet, former First Lady Michelle Obama, 59, said in her new podcast “The Light Podcast.” “And when the doors closed, I cried for 30 minutes, sobbing uncontrollably, because that’s how we got ourselves together in eight years.”

It was hard to leave the White House in Washington, the US capital, where she had lived for eight years – it was the only house the two daughters really knew. “They remembered Chicago, but they had spent more time in the White House than anywhere else.” Saying goodbye to White House employees was hard, says the wife of former US president (2009-2017) Barack Obama (61). “There were tears, there were these feelings.”

But it was particularly bad to witness Trump’s inauguration. The stage was the opposite of what she and her family represented. For example, the ranks of those present did not reflect social diversity. But you had to pull yourself together, as you had for eight years, Obama said. The family then boarded the presidential helicopter, Marine One, bound for Andrews Air Base.

Michelle Obama insisted on dishing out Trump in her podcast. When they flew over the US Capitol in Washington, there weren’t many people there, the 59-year-old said. “By the way, we saw it.” The day after Trump’s inauguration in January, Trump’s press secretary at the time, Sean Spicer, claimed at his first press conference, “This was the largest audience ever to attend an inauguration. Period!” (SDA)
