AllSides Media Bias Rating: Lean Left
Former first lady Michelle Obama is apparently taking aim President Donald Trump for refusing to concede, writing in a lengthy Instagram post, "This isn't a game."
"Our love of country requires us to respect the results of an election even when we don't like them or wish it had gone differently โ the presidency doesn't belong to any one individual or any one party," she wrote. "To pretend that it does, to play along with these groundless conspiracy theories โ whether for personal or political gain โ is to put our country's health and security in danger."
