Michelle Obama urged Democrats to take the high road to the virtual Democratic National Convention Monday night amid an ongoing investigation into her husband’s “corrupt” administration, Hoover Institution senior fellow Victor Davis Hanson told Tucker Carlson Tonight on Tuesday.
“When she says ‘We go high when we go low,’ she speaks at the moment when her husband’s administration has armed the IRS, the FBI, the DOJ, the CIA and is the subject of a massive investigation by [Connecticut U.S. Attorney John Durham], “Said Hanson.

“It will probably end, if things happen as many predict, as one of the most corrupt administrations attempting to destroy a political campaign, a president, a transition and a presidency,” Hanson added, “and she said, ‘When they go low, we go high.’ “
The former first lady relied on her most famous enrollment phrase during a disgraceful dismissal from the Trump administration. Michelle Obama first spoke of the no-viral motto “When they go low, we go high” during her speech in support of Hillary Clinton at the 2016 Democratic National Convention.
Speaking at this year’s event on behalf of presumptive Democratic presidential nominees Joe Biden, Obama doubled down on the slogan, claiming that “going high is the only thing that works.”

Hanson also disputed the former first lady’s assertion in her remarks that “black lives become unreliable, almost daily, murdered on the streets,” which he said represents a “common theme” among Democrats who “say these things. they are not true. “
“Michelle Obama knows that more than 100 people were killed in one month in her Chicago birthplace alone,” he said. “They were not killed by white people. They were not killed by the police. There are already more than 400 … she knows what the real problem is, but she also knows she could go to Chicago with Barack … meet with community leaders and say, “We have a crisis in Chicago in general and among the African-American community.”

However, Hanson went on to say, “It’s very easy to say something about your Washington as Martha’s Vineyard $ 20 million estate and mansion, because you’ll never be subject to the consequences.
“Black Lives Matter will not show up outside her house and there will be no downtown shooting just outside [in] Martha’s Vineyard. So these are all abstractions. “
