Michelle Obama Addresses The Riots That Took Place On Capitol Hill

Former first lady Michelle Obama addressed the attempted coup that took place on Capitol Hill, calling Donald Trump “infantile and unpatriotic.”

“The day was a fulfillment of the wishes of an infantile and unpatriotic president who can’t handle the truth of his own failures. And the wreckage lays at the feet of a party and media apparatus that gleefully cheered him on, knowing full well the possibility of consequences like these,” Obama said.

“Seeing the gulf between the responses to yesterday’s riot and this summer’s peaceful protests and the larger movement for racial justice is so painful,” Obama said. “It hurts. …in city after city, day after day, er saw cracked skulls and mass arrests, law enforcement pepper-spraying its way through a peaceful demonstration for a presidential photo op.”

Obama went on to say that social media companies should ban Donald Trump.

“Now is the time for Silicon Valley companies to stop enabling this monstrous behavior-and go even further than they have already by permanently banning this man from their platforms and putting in place policies to prevent their technology from being used by the nation’s leaders to fuel insurrection.”

“And if we have any hope of improving this nation, now is the time for swift and serious consequences got the failure of leadership that led to yesterday’s shame.”

Obama ended her message by saying that the process of healing will be uncomfortable.

“The work of putting America back together will be an uncomfortable painful process,” Obama said. “But if we enter into it with an honest and unwavering love of our country, then maybe we can finally start to heal.”
