‘Michelle Obama plays race card’: Fox News attacks former first lady for pointing out Republicans are white
Fox News on Thursday accused former First Lady Michelle Obama of playing “the race card” after she pointed out that Republican Party demographics include a larger share of older white men.
At the Pennsylvania Conference for Women on Tuesday, Obama noted that many people had difficulty trusting the Republicans to look after their interests because GOP lawmakers are often “all men, all white.”
Obama remarked on the “color palette” at president’s annual State of the Union Address, where the Republican side appears “literally gray and white.”

Obama made her observation at the Pennsylvania Conference for Women earlier this week. "On one side of the room, it's literally gray and white. Literally, that's the color palette on one side of the room," she said. "On the other side of the room, there are yellows and blues and whites and greens. Physically, there’s a difference in color, in the tone. Because one side: all men, all white. On the other side: some women, some people of color."
