Melania Trump has accused the Obamas of trying to hijack her husband Donald Trump’s first term in the White House.

The incoming first lady made a cutting dig while saying she feels more confident of her husband’s fast-approaching second term now former President Barack Obama is not there to make things difficult.

“The first time was challenging, we didn’t have much of the information,” the incoming first lady told “Fox & Friends” of when her husband was first sworn into office in 2017.

I will accept the accounts in Michelle Obama's book, "Becoming," as more accurate.
And however Melania felt, the Obamas' transition protocol was immeasurably more appropriate than her husband's was to the Biden's, especially the violent surprises of January 6.

Do you mean you don't know whether the Obamas' outreach to the Trumps were as inadequate as Trump's attempt to overturn the 2020 election, incite an insurrection, refuse to attend the inauguration, and promote the big lie for four years? Is there even a smidgen of a comparison?
Obama had only been a senator two years when he became president but they didn't expect OJT from their predecessors. They committed themselves to the task at hand.

No, on the job training. Sorry.
You're good.

There's no need to apologize.

I'm, however, a little confused.

The article had nothing to do with the riot on the capitol.

Rather it was all about the transition?

Maybe I'm not understanding you?

edit: ahhh, I see. Thanks for clarifying.
