'Yeah, we’re in a low, but we’ve been lower,' the former first lady said.
Michelle Obama is optimistic in the face of what she calls a “dark chapter” in American politics. Speaking with comedian Stephen Colbert at London’s O2 Arena on Sunday, she asked the audience to remember the fact the U.S. voted for her husband twice.
“We have to remember that what is happening today is true, but what happened before was also true… that should give us some solace at some level,” she continued. This was the former first lady’s second promotional appearance in London for her book. She previously spoke with acclaimed writer and activist Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie at a sell-out event at the city’s Southbank Centre.
