Michelle Obama just went to the beach and racist Trump fans are livid at her outfit

Republicans, trying to change the topic from what a rascist pig they elected President and the impending government shutdown that Trump is causing with his immigration intransigence, attacked former first lady Michelle Obama for wearing beach clothing to the beach. according to a new report on Opposing Views.
Yeah, thats how Republicans celebrate Martin Luther King Day, making inappropriate accusations towards the first African-American woman to be first lady.
Michelle Obama was in Miami Beach with her daughter Malia when they headed out to the sand wearing an outfit wouldnt get a second glance, much less blistering internet comments, from any of the other casually dressed tourists and locals present.
Dressed all in white at the beach, with fashionably ripped-denim cut-off shorts, a white blouse, and a black bandana, sunglasses, and hoop earrings, Mrs. Obama looked like she was perfectly dressed for a day at the beach, but Republican trolls were posting comments online like she was a homeless woman crashing a party at a 5 star hotel.
The ripped white shorts! Hard to believe she was ever a First Lady,one commenter wrote. Getting too much inspiration from Beyonce, I think.
Totally inappropriate for her age and who she is, said another. Her daughter looks embarrassed. Rightly so!
Why holes on the white cut offs?.. looks a little trailer trash, added another person who apparently hasnt visited a mall in the last 20 years.
The whole family has no class, added another user. Thank god they no longer represent us!
This last comment is the most unbelievable of all given the current occupants of the White House. With Melania Trumps past as a nude model, one has to wonder what their definition of class could possibly be.
Luckily more intelligent defenders of the former first lady came to the rescue in the comments section.
I dont think Michelle needs our approval, one commenter wrote. She is a self confident, elegant woman.
Former First Lady on holiday. So what? another user asked. She was in the public eye for long enough. Now leave her alone.
Not a fan but always liked her style. She does look great. So do her kids, wrote another. Family should be left out of politics.
To the commenters here that are along the lines of And she is still headline news .why? Ill tell you, one perceptive reader explained. People are pining for the days when they had a beautiful, intelligent, eloquent first family who had some decency.
Now thats an opinion thats difficult to argue with.
And not any word about the porno star "dating" POTUS.
