In her most recent podcast episode, Michelle Obama claims she cried for 30 minutes after Trump was inaugurated in 2017
Michelle states, “I cried for 30 minutes straight — uncontrollable sobbing — because that’s how much we were holding it together for eight years.”
The former first lady claimed she began to cry right as her family was leaving Joint Base Andrews in Maryland.

Her comments come around the same time as she is attempting to promote her book “The Light We Carry: Overcoming in Uncertain Times”.
Her new statement, however, contradicts her previous statements regarding how she felt on Inauguration Day.
In 2018, while on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Michelle Obama described Inauguration Day much differently and never mentioned she cried.
