Michelle Obama is one of the figures Americans like to forget that they used to demonize and dehumanize when she was actually in the political spotlight.
Is your impression that many people have changed their views on her? From what I've seen, conservatives continue to demonize and dehumanise her, while she's always been viewed pretty positively amongst democrats. Disagree?
My impression is that the right never liked her and probably never will (at least while she's alive). The left was lukewarm about her and then grew to love her over time (her "when they go low, we go high" speech was a big moment of change).
Fair enough, I was firmly in the liberal undergrad pro-Obama vacuum at the time, could've missed the wider feelings towards MO.
(And now I'm feeling nostalgic for a time when a politician managed to convincingly campaign on "hope" 😭)
