Former first lady Michelle Obama<\/a> said during a podcast on Wednesday that America was going through its “janky” era as she spoke with comedian Hasan Minhaj, who agreed.<\/p>\n

“Well, that’s the 2.0 of life and when we talk about, how do you feel about the country? You know, there are versions of the country that happen, right? And the new version doesn’t make the old one bad. It’s necessary for growth. And I think we’re in just a janky version,” Obama told the comedian during an interview on her “IMO” podcast.<\/a><\/p>\n

Minhaj agreed and asked the former first lady if he could curse.<\/p>\n

“S— is jank right now. It’s super jank,” he said, as Obama agreed.<\/p>\n

Obama said with each version of America, the country learned something about itself, before pointing to the ICE shootings in Minnesota<\/a> and the community’s response.<\/p>\n

“But with each, you know, with each version, we learned something about ourselves as a country. And you know I’m, right now I’m kind of digging the way folks are beginning to respond, right? I mean, Minnesota, powerful stuff. I mean it was a powerful reminder of what a community of people can do and are willing to do to protect one another,” she said.<\/p>\n

She argued that when the country isn’t as “janky,” it didn’t have to prove it.<\/p>\n

“You know, when you’re not so janky, you don’t have to prove that, right? And so we haven’t been this janky for a while. And I think our muscle of understanding our truth just got a little lax. We started taking things for granted, right,” she said.<\/p>\n

The former first lady said<\/a> in November that the country was not ready for a woman president.<\/p>\n

“As we saw in this past election<\/u><\/a>, sadly, we ain\u2019t ready,” she said to a crowd of women at the Brooklyn Academy of Music while promoting her new book, “The Look.”<\/p>\n

“That\u2019s why I\u2019m like, don\u2019t even look at me about running, because you all are lying. You\u2019re not ready for a woman. You are not,” she continued.<\/p>\n

The former first lady went on to say that she does not believe men in America are comfortable with a woman leading them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
