Are the Obamas returning to the White House?
At least as a cabinet member, this would be conceivable.
Many would like that - now Barack Obama has commented on the speculation.
Barack Obama was US President before
Donald Trump *
.
He and his wife Michelle are linked to
cabinet positions
under
Joe Biden
*.
The ex-president commented on the rumors - he fears that his wife might leave him.
Washington - Barack Obama back in the
White House
- could that be true?
And Michelle Obama too, maybe both in Joe Biden's cabinet?
This type of speculation is not new.
After all, Biden was vice president under ex-President Barack Obama, who actively supported Biden in the election campaign.
Now that Biden has won, speculation about the possible
cabinet of
the Democratic candidate is booming again.
And no name is more prominent than that of the Obamas.
Barack Obama as a cabinet member under Biden?
- "Michelle would leave me"
Donald Trump's predecessor now made it clear how he sees this rumor.
Barack Obama sees dramatic consequences if he really does
return
to the
White House
.
Obama stated in an interview with CBS: “There are some things I wouldn't do
because Michelle would leave me
.
She would say: what?
You do something?"
So it should be clear that his wife Michelle does not seek to rule at Biden's side either, if Barack Obama considers the idea that he could do this himself to be so absurd.

Barack Obama on Joe Biden: "He doesn't need my advice"
Obama on Democrat * Biden: “He doesn't need my advice.
But I'll help him in any way I can.
However, I have no plans to suddenly work in the White House or anything. ”
Obama
, who is currently
promoting
his new
biography
, recalled in the interview how he received
Donald Trump
in the White House and wished him luck, and how he was received by his predecessor George W. Bush himself.
"We couldn't have been more grateful," said Obama.
The political reality in 2020 is different.
Trump refuses to accept the election defeat, and some of his party colleagues stand by him in this regard.
"That is
disappointing,
" declared Barack Obama.
There is damage.
The office is that of a “servant of the people.
It's a temporary job. "
