Awkward: What Michelle Obama Does Right After Melania Hands Her a Gift Is Instantly Noticed (Video)
January 23 2017
Charles Campbell for Western Journalism reports, Never underestimate the power of social media to make an otherwise miserable moment go viral. In this case, it was former first lady Michelle Obama’s reaction to a gift that new first lady Melania Trump brought her Friday morning. The new first couple greeted the Obamas at the White House as tradition dictates on Inauguration Day.

Michelle Obama’s face is priceless as Melania Trump presents her with Tiffany & Co. parting gift
There’s a saying that a picture is worth a thousand words, and that applies to the outgoing First Lady Michelle Obama as she was given a parting gift by new First Lady Melania Trump.
Following tradition, a very graceful Melania brought along a gift – inside a Tiffany & Co. box – for Michelle.
As Melania and Donald walked up the steps of the White House, a gloved Melania carried the box and was quick to present it to Michelle .
With a hand outstretched, a warm Michelle ignored a handshake and went straight in for an embrace and a kiss on the cheeks.
“That’s a present for you,” a smiling Melania told Michelle, who awkwardly took the box and quickly turned for someone to take it from her so they can have their photo all together on the White House steps.
Her face said it all as she decided what to do with it.
“Michelle Obama is not impressed by Melania Trump’s gift giving ability,” one Twitter user noted.
While another added: “Soon to be ex-First Lady. Parting gift. Yeah, she’s not pleased.”
YOU KNOW how cringey it is when someone brings you a gift, and you haven’t bought them anything?
You can handle this a number of ways. You can go bright red and lie and say “your gift hasn’t arrived in the post yet but it’s on its way … your dress is lovely, let’s have a slice of cake!” Or you can shuffle the parcel to your husband and vow to squeal “wasn’t that awkward!” later on when you’re taking your makeup off.
Michelle Obama decided to go with the latter method today when Donald Trump and his wife Melania turned up to the White House with a Tiffany box for the outgoing first lady.
What a lot of blathering. The text under the vid said more than the video did.
So, just scroll thru the pictures and read the captions, because as wbb said, you can avoid the part of having to watch a fat news guy bloviate forever about nothing.
NNNext.
I thought Muchelle looked like an idiot. What she can’t give a hug and take a gift at the same time, without looking helpless.
COME-ON. HOW ELSE WOULD YOU EXPECT AN EX-FOOTBALLER DRESSED AS A WOMAN TO REACT??
YOU’VE JUST BEEN GIVEN A GIFT BY A REAL WOMAN WITH STYLE, CHARM AND GORGEOUS GRACE – HOW CAN YOU EXPECT MICHAEL TO KNOW HOW TO CARRY HIM/HERSELF OR KNOW WHAT TO DO?? IT’S EMBARRASSING.
NOT EVEN JOHN CLEESE COULD ACT OUT A MORE PERFECT – UNCOMFORTABLE MOMENT!
SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PUT HIGH-CLASS TIFFANY MERCHANDISE NEXT TO BLACK-MARKET KNOCK-OFFS??
C.I.A. TAKE NOTE!! – YOU’RE NOT SO SMART NOW!! (p.s. no racial slur intended).
If you go to Barry Soetoro Esq’s YT channel you will see Why the lovely Michelle looked frumpy. Michelle’s hairy balls inched so much that she was caught off guard scrubbing them in the official white house bird bath when Trump and Melania pulled up. No joke, just ask Barry Soetoro Esq.
Rumor has it Melania recommended she use NAIR….lol
Oh, and one more thing: Franchi’s an idiot.
The ugly tranny looks pissed! WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!
Why is that man (accepting the gift) wearing a dress and has his hair in bun style. Is he the new politically correct maid for the Trumps?
Get it right that “Shim” is Butler notta maid, damnit!
doesn’t take much to upstage Michael, just a real woman will do it, let alone a Lady such as Melania
Melania : class; Michelle : classless.
This is a big nothing.
From what I understand , not only are they not allowed to hold a package for security purposes, for some reason the President and First lady are not supposed to be photographed holding gifts.
The security rule makes sense, I am not sure why the other rule exists.
But for any media, be it the corporate big brother media or the pretend “alternative” media sites to make an issue of this event is absurd, no matter who those involved in the event are.
No, how come they show Mrs. Bush holding her present and walking with it into the building. Besides, she (the so-called “ape in heels”) did not even thank her.
Something is wrong with those Negroes.
Mrs bush was not the sitting first lady.
I am not an obama fan by any stretch, but your childish racist “ape in heels” comment is quite juvenile and implies to me that it is not “those negroes” there is something wrong with.
It is you.
And all who are like you who buy into every piece of bullshit tossed at you.
No, George Bush Jr’s wife.
Exactly, lady imbecile. She was not the sitting first lady.
She was not subject to the same protocol as white house occupants.
She turned around with it like she thought it was a big box of chocolate and she wanted to open it right away.
Now I remember why I stopped coming to BIN. This guy is so full of crap.
All you have to do when someone gives you an unexpected gift is kindly say, “How lovely! Thank you for your thoughtfulness.” No mention of not having one for the other party. Problem solved.
Why is it so difficult for people, particularly women, to just accept a gift without feeling they have to give something in return? Let the person have the pleasure of giving. Sometimes that’s all it boils down to.
Why are people being so racist to Michelle?
Its so wrong. She is so more classy than Melania and shows it too. Michelle is an amazing lady.
huh?? Michelle is a transvestite, not a lady at all
Where is the proof of that? Nowhere, its all BS and you know it.
If you can’t recognize a man dressed as a woman like Moochi… Don’t EVER go to the Philippines.
excuse me?? Barack himself called michelle MICHAEL in a speech – go look it up
as a straight man, i can assure you, absolutely no man calls his beloved michelle MICHAEL for any reason at any time, accident or no
and have you seen the footage of michael dancing on the ellen degenerate show? you cansee his BALLS swinging and hitting the pant front
Second time I’ve agreed with you today Andy.
Stop it.
LOL
it’s all good,, you can still hate me for disagreeing bout religion/god/etc
I can’t imagine her in any way being “classy” ( which is an elitist term that implies people being measured by social classes). The obama clan was nearly as big an embarrassment to this country as the yankee hillbilly bushes were.
But that is simply no reason to nit pick and make something out of something so minor as how she handled getting a gift.
The past 8 years have been enough of a nightmare that there is no need to do anything but stick to true solid known to be facts.
They spent 8 years further dividing the country, especially racially, and not fixing a damn bit of the cheney damage like obama said he would do.
There is enough there to write a book on. Getting a present is moot.
total clickbait and why I do not recommend this con artist
I hope it was a bedpan from Tiffanys I love mine and Mishael will love his too…he can fill it with cool warter and fcool his balls so to end that gene strain
WHAT A LOAD OF AMERICANA BULLSHIT ~ GROW UP FFS…..
WTF IS FFS?
For Freakin’ (or F-ckin’) Sakes.
