The question of Michelle Obama’s gender identity has been circulating for quite some time now, and Republican viewers have a lot to consider.
Investigative reporter and documentary filmmaker Joel Gilbert, who is also known as a “Michelle Obama expert”, released his new film titled “Michelle Obama 2024: Her Real Life Story and Plan for Power”.
The film delves into the intricacies of her early life and how her racial identity shaped her into the woman she is today.
But what really stands out in this movie is Gilbert’s inquiry into whether or not Michelle Obama is a man.
This contentious topic was brought to light when late comedian Joan Rivers called Michelle Obama a “transvestite” back in 2014; unsurprisingly, it caused an uproar among the public and kept the rumor alive.
To add fuel to the fire, it was discovered that when Barack Obama ran for president in 2008, Michelle had registered herself as “male” on a voter registration card – an action that many Republicans view with suspicion.
Gilbert argues that this fact has become something of an obsession within certain circles; however, he further suggests that this isn’t just about gossiping behind someone’s back – it goes much deeper than that.
Many Republicans believe that if there were any truth to these rumors then it would undermine both Barack and Michelle’s political legacy since they’ve built their brand around being progressive champions of equality.
It could also be damaging to all those who supported them during elections due to its potential implications on their own reputations as well.
