Meghan McCain called Michelle Obama a negative person following Michelle's rant about the high living cost of the White House.
Conservative commentator Meghan McCain, the daughter of former senator John McCain, was criticized for trolling former first lady Michelle Obama after Michelle said living in the White House was costly. "It would be cool if Michelle Obama had literally anything positive to say about anything," McCain said, reacting to the viral clip of Michelle Obama's rant about the
living costs of the White House
.
Apart from her own podcast, Michelle Obama recently appeared on several other talk shows and podcasts and spoke freely about all the speculations that were going on about her. The shows appear after her long absence in the public that stoked rumors about her marital discord, an impending divorce and Barack Obama's alleged affair with actor Jennifer Aniston.
As Michelle Obama put those speculations to rest without hiding the problems her marriage with Barack has, she has recently opened up about the living costs of the White House.
“How do you raise kids in the White House? It’s dangerous,” Michelle Obama said. “As the first black potential president, we knew there would be death threats … how would we afford it? Because it’s expensive to live in the White House, as many people don’t know.”
“I mean, much is not covered,” she continued. “You’re paying for every food, every bit of food that you eat, you know, you’re not paying for housing and the staff in it … but everything, even travel, if you’re not traveling with the president, if you’re kids are coming on a Bright Star, which is the first lady’s plane, we had to pay for their travel to be on the plane.”
“It is an expensive proposition, and you’re running for two years and not earning an income, so all of that was in my mind, um, how would we manage this."
As Meghan McCain called out Michelle, a social media user reminded her that her father use to consider the Obamas as a decent patriotic family.
"Meghan, Michelle Obama built her legacy on hope, dignity, and service, values your party’s leaders have systematically ridiculed. If you only hear negativity when she speaks, it says more about your filters than her message. Leadership isn’t performative cheerleading, it’s grounded optimism with moral clarity. Try it sometime. Your dad happens to believe that the Obamas are a decent patriotic American family. Be your dad’s daughter!" the person wrote.
Meghan McCain was one of the insiders who spoke about Michelle and Barack's divorce. Meghan earlier said reputable people confirmed the rumors.
"I really respect Michelle Obama - but if she wants everyone to stop speculating on her marriage she shouldn’t spend every episode of her podcast telling women we need to expect marriage to be a torturous hellscape with few glimpses of happiness scattered about here and there," Meghan recently commented as Michelle spoke profusely about her marriage.
