There’s a curious joy deficit in Michelle Obama’s video memoir Becoming, the Netflix documentary produced by her and her husband. As she glides from one beautiful space to another, surrounded by beautiful and famous people, with beautiful daughters and a beautiful bank account and much else to be grateful for, the viewer keeps waiting for her Flounder moment: Oh, boy, is this great!
Instead, the tone is mostly dour, pained, even somber. I suspect (and hope!) that, off-camera, the Obamas are a bit more full of joie de vivre than Michelle Obama is in this film, which is largely a litany of complaint.

It's not complicated. She's a product of the grievance industry.

She always played the race card. During the Obama administration, the Whitehouse was called the Party House. They both threw parties almost every night. It was truly embarrassing.

People who are not transparent and are deceptive in motive usually do a lot of complaining. To Michelle Obama: truth is freeing.

The way she looks? Her complete lack of grace? Her "marriage?"

'Indescribably unfair and hurtful.'
Apparently Michelle didn't notice she was posing for glossy magazine covers four times per month with accompanying sycophantic articles praising her non-talents.
It's like George Lucas complaining that one person in 1977 didn't buy a ticket to see Star Wars.
The height of entitlement.

In the next breath she will be claiming she wants to unite all Americans.

She should have set the documentary in a sharecropper cabin, eating beans and chitlin from a tin plate, if she chose to tell us how miserable and rotten we were to “her folks.” Ms. Smith made an astute observation about this complainer’s beautiful surroundings while she kvetches about racial injustice to the camera. Believe me, Michelle Obama will never be without her plate of buttered lobster for the rest of her life, but is never one bit grateful for what this country undeservingly gave her and all her soul sistahs.

Michelle Obama is given more riches than Croesus, the adulation of Mary mother of Jesus, and a life long ultra luxurious vacation. Yet she lives in Hell, unable to enjoy her literal heaven on Earth.
Maybe she has buyer's remorse for selling her soul.

What does she have to complain about?
The plastic surgeons failure to make her a size 6?
Or female..
Or that she has to live a lie
Where are those pregnancy pics? Record of hospital stay for delivery?
Barry holding newborn at hospital at Michelle bedside?
Curious isn’t jt? She made concessions?
Dear Nesbitt children, you were a concession to make Mike and Barry political partnership America family dream. Do we ever see the kids anymore?
Complain? They took down fake garden? The lobster beef platter is too small?
The administration she garners is media driven..

Maybe Michelle simply has a "dour, pained, even somber," resting face.
LOL.
I'm sure she laughs all the way to the bank.

Everything! She is a Narcissist first, whining partisan hack, second and a lousy human!
Cut off her air!

FTA: "I suspect (and hope!) that, off-camera, the Obamas are a bit more full of joie de vivre than Michelle Obama is in this film."
Really? Are you that stupid, Kyle? If you believe this then you must have been hiding under a rock for 8 years. This woman ALWAYS looks like she ate a you-know-what-sandwich!
Oh, it's National Review--never mind. That's the publication where the urnalists live out the saying, "You can't fix stupid!"

I’m not a psychiatrist but I know something about human nature. I suspect that way down deep inside, Mooch knows that she has done nothing to deserve her life and that she hasn’t earned anything that she’s been given - starting with her AA acceptance at Princeton. She knows that she is, at best, mediocre and that’s what eats at her craw. All of the adulation and groveling at her feet just reinforces what a fraud she is and that’s why she’s miserable.

She and Obama used racism to get ahead. They are the victims and in today's culture, being a victim will put you ahead. Wonder where she would be if they had not gone to the WH? Would she still be in the same law firm or would she have been let go. She would be nobody without Obama. No talent, no class, no money. Someone tell her that they more she talks about how miserable her life has been the worse she comes off.

She was perpetually unhappy because she expected everyone to love and adore her while she was telegraphing her loathing of them 24/7.

Complaining is in her DNA. Scab-picking.

I think Big Mike’s misery is based on the superficial. She knows she is not the person her adoring press claims she is. She is a big, ugly, awkward guy who dresses like someone tossed a bin from Good Will over head.
And to be followed by the likes of Melania?
No, Michelle couldn’t care less about anything sunbstantive. She’s angry because she’s tragically unfortunate looking.

She's only happy when she has something to be unhappy about.

She has a Barbie complex. Always looking in the mirror and Barbie never stares back. Then in 2017 Barbie moved into the WH. These people lied to get where they are, and making millions, but still not happy.
Someone who really wants to be Joe's VP gave her "poor little black girl" speech at the impeachment hearings is willing to take her place.
You will never be happy til you get that chip off your shoulder.

I dropped my Netflix subscription when I heard of this bribe to the Obama's. This deal was negotiated when he was still in office and should be considered actionable.
