Michelle Obama candidacy rumors from GOP, not Dems: Ex-Obama staffer | Cuomo

Ameshia Cross, former Obama campaign staffer and Democratic strategist, tells "Cuomo" that former first lady Michelle Obama has "absolutely no interest" in a presidential run. The calls for her to join the race are not coming from the Democratic Party, Cross said, but instead from Republicans who wish to tear her down and pit her against Vice President Kamala Harris.

Something is really wrong with you Chris 🤦🏻‍♀️

Saying that the voters chose the delegates is disingenuous on Ameshia's part. The Democratic party stifled the primary process so that there was no true competition. The party insiders anointed Biden (both in 2024 and 2016), and now they are anointing Harris. Its ironic that the Democratic Party goes on and on about democracy and yet their primary process is anything but.

So much relief. Thanks to Joe for doing the right thing. Watched her speech from the campaign HQ - she nailed it 💙

I am not part of the GOP. I would sooner vote for Michelle Obama than Kamala Harris or Donald Trump.

There has been no process. This is a shame.

Well i dont know what the right say, but i love to see Obama run she's a very accomplished woman

The proces : the voters choose delegates, they spoke out for the ticket Biden -Harris.
Biden stept aside left Harris, she got a vast majority of the delegates on her side so there was a proces .
In fact voters came out and gave her a huge financial support and the enthusiasm is back in the dem. party.
This is the best thing that could happen given the situation for all democrats.

Would be better for Michelle Obama to run with Josh Shapiro or Andy Beshear or Mark Kelly or Wes Moore 😊😊
