President Trump fired back at the Obamas, ahead of their book tour, following Michelle’s comments that she will “never forgive” Trump for the “xenophobic” ‘birther’ claims that her husband was not actually born in America.
In excerpts from her memoir “Becoming” obtained by The Washington Post,
“The whole thing was crazy and mean-spirited, of course, its underlying bigotry and xenophobia hardly concealed,” the former first lady writes.
“But it was also dangerous, deliberately meant to stir up the wingnuts and kooks.”
“What if someone with an unstable mind loaded a gun and drove to Washington? What if that person went looking for our girls? Donald Trump, with his loud and reckless innuendos, was putting my family’s safety at risk. And for this I’d never forgive him,” she continues.
As The Hill reports, the book, which is set to release Tuesday, details the first lady’s early life in Chicago all the way through to her time as first lady, and includes her feelings of shock and disbelief following Trump’s election in 2016.
But, as Mediaite.com reports, President Trump - as is his way - was not taking this lying down. During a Friday morning pool spray at the White House, Trump was asked about Michelle Obama’s comments. His reply?
“I guess she wrote a book. She got paid a lot of money to write a book. And they always insist you come up with controversial. Well, I’ll give you a little controversy back. I’ll never forgive [Barack Obama] for what he did to our United States military. By not funding properly, it was depleted. Everything was old and tired. And I came in and I had to fix it.”
Trump added, “So I’ll never forgive him for what he did to our military. I’ll never forgive him for what he did in many other ways — which I’ll talk to you about in the future.”

We suspect - given the timing of Michelle’s 10-city book tour that is scheduled to kick off Tuesday in her hometown of Chicago - this little feud is far from over…
On Obama being an unqualified to be the president I agree 100% with President Trump.
Jaggersden - If he was unqualified, how do you explain the fact that he saved your ass in 2008? You do know Obama turned the economy around after the Republicans caused the recession?
Trump turned the economy around-Obama just wants to take credit for it.
HAHAHAHA… you win funniest, most ludicrous post of the day, D. Rich…
do you recall that Bush had to dems he had to deal with in congress. they caused the housing bust, you didn’t have to qualify for a home loan anymore..remember that? Banks were forced to give loans to unqualified ppl that ended up losing their homes in the long run. Bush may not have done a great job, but having dems control the house and senate had a lot to do with the bad economy. Obama had nothing to do with Trump’s economy. Remember obama telling everyone that we need to get used to his “New” economy, America’s better days were behind us? Did Trump have a “magic wand” to bring back jobs to this country, remember all that garbage from failing obama and NOW he wants to take credit for Trump’s economy?? Obama is a clown that only had “community organizer” on his resume and idiots voted him into ofc, dems never vetted the Kenyan, who never held a real job in his life..incredible
but, but…he worked for Baskin Robbins.

When Michelle can come clean about her true gender, then America will sit up and listen.
THE SAME WITH MAN-LANIA
Michelle is the ugliest man I’ve ever seen. Now she’s proved to be even a better liar than Barak!
I agree with both of the above comments - but this will never happen - they both are liars. We will never know…… They should both go back to the countries they were born in….
When Barack is held accountable for providing Iran with $150 billion to pursue his proxy wars of terror, agreed to protect his nuclear facilities, provided a pathway to nuclear weapons, and did nothing about his illegal development of ICBMs or the threats from North Korea; when he Danced with the murdering Castro, and gave us the worse economic misery since the Great depression, she can open up her big hateful mouth.

Thank you, Robin at 650-631-9270
they are nothing but sore loosers , but then again all demo-rats are sore loosers
GySgt Lew - So who is the bigger liar: Trump or Obama. You know it’s Trump, but you won’t admit it.
The only one maybe a bigger liar than obummer is Killary Clnton!
Petty Politics. But, then again, I guess we all like to do that which we do best.
OBAMA WAS THE WORST PRES EVER! HE DEPLETED OUR MILITARY TO SHREDS AND DIDNT CARE ABOUT OUR PROTECTIONS THAT WAS DISPLAYED BY OPENING OUR BORDERS IN 2014. OBAMA WAS HERE TO WRECK OUR ECONOMY AND OUR COUNTRY. IF GEORGE SOROS IS ON THE SIDE OF THE DEMOCRATS HE IS KNOWN FOR WRECKING ECONOMIES. SO THAT SAID OBAMA WAS PAID AND BOUGHT TO BRING DOWN AMERICA AND TRUMP KNOWS OTHER THINGS HE IS NOT SAYING. OBAMA CERTAINLY SPENT US OUT OF SIGHT. OUR DEBT!
Sandy - But he saved the economy, didn’t he.
No, he didn’t!
She’s a douche-bag that matches her husband the scumbag!!!
Once again, Donald was attacked and his response was apropos . . . ! Donald did not initiate the “birther movement”, OBAMA DID BY CLAIMING AN AFRICAN BIRTHPLACE! BTW, Barry Soetoro was his name.
And “legally” Barry S is STILL his real name, as is his “Indonesian citizenship” from adoption by his step-father. Notably, at age 10, he moved to Hawaii to live with his maternal grandparents (both communists). Even more notably, there is NO record of American citizenship ever being “conferred” on the fraud, before, during, OR after! Illegal citizen?? You betcha!
madmemere - Come on, idiot. This is how FAKE NEWS gets started.
Your defense is to call someone with an opinion an idiot. Well DEMONCRAPS only know how to call names. And if you seriously give credit to Obammy then you are part of the TREASON THE LOWLIFES COMMITTED. I HOPE YOU OR YOUR LOVED ONES DONT GET HURT, RAPED OR MURDERED BY ANY OF OBAMMY CLINTONS AND GEORGE SOROS ILLEGALS. .OUR COUNTRY. LIVES AND ECONOMY WERE IN THE S***tank under OVOMITS watch… can’t you just be a better man and admit. If any of you demonic rats are willing to ignore the truth, then, hence your ignorant sorry just a TRUE AMERICAN’S OPINION. I CAN SLEEP AT NIGHT, CAN YOU
Dick, Dick, Dick - Please stop making this stuff up. You know it’s not true or are you just obtuse?
Madmemere…I agree 100%! The idiot is Dick, Dick, Dick, run Dick run, pls run away
it doesn’t matter what the man moochelllll says or does…He is a anti american foolll
it was dems that first started the birth controversy
It was B.O. who could have handed over a birth ceritificate but spent a long time in courts to fight
providing it.
And when he did provide it, the case was made, and strongly so, that the document was a fraud. Now the fraud claim didn’t address where he was actually born, but that the document was altered making it a useless item
And then B.O has sealed his records in his so called library and we are to be happy with his transparency. No thank you
But the media loved this half white, unvetted, irresponsible and unpatriotic communithy organizer because he could read a teleprompter and looked clean, and had a crease in his pants.
Obama is the biggest liar around. He said one thing and did just the opposite-He is an America hater.
I believe Obama is gas. His man-wife entered Columbia University under the name of Michael LaVaugh Robinson, played freshman football there, then a miracle happened and he became Michelle. Obama even called him “Michael” on two occasions on camera. The two alleged daughters? Well, there just might be a rent-a-kid out there somewhere. The Obama’s hated America as much as the Clintons did. (Excuse me - “DO”) And I, sad to say, voted for Billy both times. How can anyone believe anything they have to say when he paid a battery of lawyers thousands of dollars to hide every aspect of his past from public view and it took years for him to come up with (read; “manufacture” a birth certificate)? Who else but a demo-communists could get away with that crap and still get elected?
Obuma has never liked America, he lied when he took office, he is not even fit to be dog catcher. He has done everything possible to bring this great country to its knees. I’d like to know why he changed his name from Santoro to Obuma. Oh, the Democraps want to see President Trumps tax returns, well if the look under obumas birth certificate they may see them!

It was Hillary Clinton that started the question of Obama’s birthplace when she was in a primary fight for the nomination against Obama. Trump simply took it further, louder and longer. It has always amazed me that none of Obama’s classmates, childhood friends, if he had any, or any of his teachers, or students from his Constitutional Law professor days have ever admitted to knowing him, being a friend to him, dating him as a teen, or any other aspect of his life. He can have his school records sealed and stuff like that, but one would think SOME ONE would have admitted babysitting him or being his teacher in 3rd grade or something. Weird.
