Is this why we aren’t seeing the former First Lady on the campaign trail?

According to an Axios report, former First Lady Michelle Obama hasn’t been campaigning for Joe Biden’s re-election efforts due to the Biden Family’s exile of Hunter Biden’s ex-wife Kathleen Buhle.

Obama and Buhle are close friends.

From Axios:

Former First Lady Michelle Obama privately has expressed frustration over how the Biden family largely exiled her close friend Kathleen Buhle after Buhle’s messy divorce from Hunter Biden, two people familiar with the relationship told Axios.

Why it matters: The family tensions — and the former first lady’s disdain for partisan politics — are partly why one of the Democrats’ most popular voices hasn’t campaigned for President Biden‘s re-election, the sources said, even as former President Obama has been a willing surrogate.

Michelle Obama, who had become friends with Buhle during the Obama administration, privately told others that she felt Buhle had been wronged.

Buhle had to deal with Hunter’s drug use and infidelity — and then Biden family members blamed Buhle for some of the salacious details of his behavior becoming public.

Aside from retweeting Biden’s re-election announcement, the former First Lady has not participated in any public events for Joe Biden.
