Tucker Carlson Warns of a Possible Michelle Obama Presidential Run in 2020
Last night on his program Fox News host Tucker Carlson warned of a surprise Michelle Obama run for President coming very soon.
“That’s pathetic. Don’t want to pile on. Sad to watch. If Obama had endorsed Joe Biden the race would be over. Biden would in effect be the nominee already. Obama hasn’t endorsed Joe Biden because he doesn’t want to endorse Joe Biden,” Carlson said.
“Why? Maybe he has other plans? Obama’s presidential memoir was supposed to come out this year. Now it’s release has been delayed until the middle of the democratic primaries. In other words, at exactly the moment when Democrats will be thinking deeply about how to beat Donald Trump, America will be talking about the Obamas,” Tucker added.
He concluded “Coincidence? Maybe it is. Maybe it’s also a coincidence that Michelle Obama just released yet another book last week one that will require her, of course, to get on the road and talk to crowds. Maybe she really isn’t interested in joining the race that would make her unusual among Democrats in this country.”

TUCKER: “That’s pathetic. Don’t want to pile on. Sad to watch. If Obama had endorsed Joe Biden the race would be over. Biden would in effect be the nominee already. Obama hasn’t endorsed Joe Biden because he doesn’t want to endorse Joe Biden.
Why? Maybe he has other plans? Obama’s presidential memoir was supposed to come out this year. Now it’s release has been delayed until the middle of the democratic primaries. In other words, at exactly the moment when Democrats will be thinking deeply about how to beat Donald Trump, America will be talking about the Obamas.
Coincidence? Maybe it is. Maybe it’s also a coincidence that Michelle Obama just released yet another book last week one that will require her, of course, to get on the road and talk to crowds. Maybe she really isn’t interested in joining the race that would make her unusual among Democrats in this country.
The current field is so weak that it’s inviting a lot of new entrants. A [former] Massachusetts governor has convinced himself he can be president. The mediocre mayor of a small crime ridden town in Indiana may actually win the Iowa Caucuses. It is that bad this year.
The Democratic Party is ripping itself apart over race and gender and class. Michelle Obama, let’s be honest, is one of the only people who could unite the party’s warring factions. Could she win a general election?
Let’s see, a poll earlier this year found that Michelle Obama was the most admired woman in the world. She would far left admired if the press gave her a little scrutiny. What are the chances that would happen in a race?
Let’s say Michelle Obama got into the contest this spring or this summer? Could the media cover for Michelle Obama until Election Day?
Are you serious? Yeah. They could. And they would.
One of the main lessons of Donald Trump’s 2016 election is that you never really know what’s going to happen. Unexpected things happen far more often than we manage they do or that we pretend they do.”
