Hillary Clinton Shares Barack Obama's Response to Michelle's Trump Swipe

Hillary Clinton revealed Barack Obama's reaction after Michelle Obama's apparent jab at Trump.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton detailed a moment from the Obama Presidential Center dedication ceremony in Chicago, where Michelle Obama appeared to take a jab at President Donald Trump by mentioning his Nobel Peace Prize. Clinton recounted that she and Obama were seated together when Michelle began listing her husband's accomplishments, including winning the Nobel Peace Prize.

Upon hearing this, Hillary couldn't help but burst into laughter and joked to her husband, "I am sure Trump is watching this. He thinks he's now in the third circle of hell." Obama's response was brief, simply agreeing, "Yeah, I hope he is." The comment, which drew laughter from the crowd, went viral and was widely interpreted as a reference to Trump's long-standing complaints about not receiving a Nobel Peace Prize, despite his diplomatic efforts.
