Michelle Obama fired off on women on Saturday, criticizing females for their role in electing President Donald Trump in 2016, saying that she’s “concerned” about women now.
“In light of this last election, I’m concerned about us, as women, and how we think about ourselves and about each other and what is really going on,” Obama said at the United State of Women summit in Los Angeles.
Because what could express a more “united state” for women, then slamming them for not voting the way you wanted them to.
“What is going on in our heads where we let that happen?” Obama said. “So I do wonder what are young girls dreaming about, if we’re still there?”
Obama continued, “When the most qualified person running was a woman - and look what we did instead, I mean, that says something about where we are. Forget everybody else, that’s what we have to explore, because if we as women are still suspicious of one another, if we still have this crazy, crazy bar for each other that we don’t have for men, if we’re still doing that today? If we’re not comfortable with the notion that a woman could be our president, compared to what?”
“We have to have that conversation with ourselves as women. This is not an external conversation, that’s on us.”
