Michelle Obama for VP in 2020?

Former First Lady Michelle Obama has repeatedly said she is not running for office, but now that Democratic nominee and former VP Joe Biden has vowed to choose a female VP, could she reconsider? Chris Cillizza explains why Michelle Obama would be a dream vice president pick, but why it’s unlikely to happen.

    1. @mminnaples Can you prove that? You should keep your racism to yourself. At she is was a prostitute unlike some first lady’s?!

    2. @uncle Ricky “hydroxychloriquin” 22% died while be exposed to it and only 11.5 died not being exposed to it. Trump should be charged with man slaughter.

  1. He needs to pick Katie Portef or Stacy Abrams poor Michelle would have to put up with too much hate.

    1. Andrew Orahoske please please not WARREN she waited till last minute to endorse him and I’m fro MA

    2. @Jane Boucher Is it that 5 I think of down you may be by your side so you’re not alone in this

    1. Joe Biden with kids rubbing his hairy legs for United states Senate 303300..ohh wait..you know..the thing..ect listen fat, the fact of the matter is that corn pop was a real bad dude. Dont question it you lying dog faced pony soldier

    2. Yeah because that’s what matters..not who would be be best suited for the job..typical libtard comment

    3. @Tara McPhee the last time we saw your hero Mueller he didn’t even remember where he was. He is basically another version of dementia riddled Pedo Joe. If that is who you are banking on to be the hero in your fairy tale you are going to be really bummed 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

    1. That is a great idea , a woman who is black and educated ( not from Trump university)… Michelle for Vice President and if Biden cannot do his duty, then Michelle is President 🎉

    2. @Mztee Panch

      There is no fucking way in hell that Biden can beat Trump, so big Mike can go back to twerking with Ellen.

    1. In a civilized world, we do not resort to violence when we don’t want to hear someone. We just change the channel or better yet, we don’t click voluntarily on a video with a thumbnail of someone we don’t like…

    1. @kalsan qurux
      This is what it must sound like when I’m speaking Spanish… Thank you to my southern friends for bearing with me.
      At least we try Kalsun.

    2. HaHa Jones So the best employee for me to hire is the one who is least interested in the job???

      🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

    3. JasonUrX As far as it’s been reported one couple are aquarium cleaner because it contained a drug that Trump said would cure Covid19?

      And? They are stupid? Yeah, I think we got that. Who said Trump was their messiah?

      Trump is a master salesman. He says whatever he has to even if it means talking off the top of his head or out of his butt.

    4. Legend Bartlett Why aren’t there any pictures of Michelle when she was pregnant?

      Why did Joan Rivers say she was a trans? And then die in a routine surgery two months later?

      Just asking.

  2. you’re one of my very favourite journalist, really funny, concise and enjoyable..Cheers, carry on👌👋

    1. hanz patinski
      …so that’s why she had ivf …….no female equipment …….which explains the Obumma jokes 😂😂😂

    2. @Brian Smith You are as dumb as anyone can get and you proved it when you said she has no female equipment but had ivf so how the hell does that work you dumbass??

  3. Could imagine the nonstop identity politics?
    “As a (blank) I’m suddenly qualified to preach at you”

    1. Kel El
      Speaking of identity politics……….Michael LaYaughn Ronnson . Shhh don’t tell anyone !

  4. When will CNN report how big corporations and the 1% dried up the Small business loans that wasn’t intended for them ?

    1. Paula Anne – Michelle will get them votes, but nothing will change for the middle class. Her husband put pressure on Bernie to drop out. Bernie was the only chance of beating Trump, and the DNC clearly wasn’t having that. They’d much rather lose with Biden, than win with Bernie. F*** the DNC. if they are gonna shove Biden down our throats, they better be ready for the consequences.

  5. It’s so funny seeing all these candidates compete to be chosen as Biden’s VP. It’s like the Bachelor! Lol

  6. IS going to be brutal for Biden in a debate with Trump, he melted 17 young experienced republicans and one old granny ♿😆
