Michelle Obama is speaking out against infantile and unpatriotic President Donald Trump, who she says is willing to burn our democracy down for his own ego following Wednesday s Capitol Hill riot. I woke up yesterday elated by the news of Reverend Raphael Warnock s election victory, Obama, 56, wrote Thursday. He ll be Georgia s first Black senator, and I was heartened by the idea that the senior pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church the home parish of Dr. King and a spiritual and organizational hub during the Civil Rights Movement would be representing his state in the United States Senate.
However, Obama said the euphoria of the Warnock s victory was quickly overshadowed by the terrifying turn of events at Capitol Hill. She said her heart had fallen harder and faster than I can remember.
