Awards shows are apparently the place to vocalize opposition.
Since Donald Trump won in November, celebrities use awards shows to propagate a personal liberal agenda bias.
But ESPN’s ESPY awards was the first awards show to not utter a single word about President Trump, good or bad – but then something happened.
Watching the ESPYs, it was almost jaw-dropping that not one athlete, sports analyst or celebrity brought up Trump’s name once.
It was as if this was a perplexing alternate reality.
But as ESPN continues to face criticism over their obvious liberal bias, Michelle Obama showed up to present an award, and the entire crowd erupted in a standing ovation as if they all cried that they miss her.
Fox Sports reports:
Michelle Obama returned to the spotlight as a presenter at The ESPYs, drawing the loudest ovation at the awards show honoring the past year’s best athletes and moments in sports.
The former first lady made a rare public appearance since leaving the White House in January. She presented the Arthur Ashe Courage Award posthumously to Eunice Kennedy Shriver, founder of the Special Olympics.
Shriver’s son, Tim, accepted on Wednesday night in Los Angeles.
“I am here tonight to honor a remarkable woman, a woman who believed that everyone has something to contribute and everyone deserves a chance.”
“When we give others the chance to fulfill their greatest potential, we all win,” Obama said before being joined onstage by eight Special Olympics athletes.
“Through her passionate service, she made our world more welcoming, inclusive and fair.”
Shriver accepted the silver trophy from Obama, ‘Once a great first lady, still a great first lady,’ he said as the crowd roared.
Obama smiled with her arm on one of the athletes as Shriver urged that more work needs to be done to achieve equality toward people with intellectual disabilities.
“Our mother would have loved you,” he said. “She would have loved your forthrightness, your honesty, your toughness, your commitment also to get everybody on the playing field. She would have been so honored that you are here for her tonight as we all are.”
Obama walked off stage sharing a hug with one of the female athletes.
Yeah, Trump’s name wasn’t brought up, but the subtext was clearly there.
Every positive word that was said about Michelle Obama was an attack on the current administration, like when they said she “made the world more welcoming, inclusive and fair.”
That is a globalist liberal ideology.
And it was almost as if ESPN instructed presenters and winners to not bring up President Trump so that they could save their subtle protest for this very moment.
After all, ESPN can’t help but steering away from their liberalism.
Breitbart reports:
Choosing Michelle Obama as the face for its 2017 Courage award won’t help the network defeat the claims that the network is too liberal, a charge the sports network has been battling for years now.
Indeed, this is the third example of ESPN’s liberalism in just the last month alone.
In June the sports network appointed extreme anti-Trumper Connor Schell as its second in command.
Then, weeks later, the sports network chose liberal comedian Jon Stewart as a co-host for its SportsCenter coverage of the Warrior Games.
The liberal bent of the network has been bad enough to cause thousands of fans to stop watching its coverage.
Even as ESPN itself recently bought and paid for a poll that claimed the network has no problem with liberal bias, three other polls not paid for by ESPN showed a far different thing.
It could’ve been anyone else, but they chose Michelle Obama to present the Arthur Ashe “courage” award. Come on, you must think we’re all stupid, ESPN.
SHAME ON US, USA means united, states, America. We got so much hate in us that we don’t have the U. Conseratives hate liberals, Dem. hate Rep.mix in all race stuff thats a lot of hate. And we rather tear this country up then fix it. SHAME
We are trying to get it fixed, but will have to get rid of racist black and white, but especially crooked ,lying, thieving politicians .
We can’t vote the crooks out fast enough. As far as racist people we keep teaching hate. I read the statements above there is a lot of hate. That the Shame. There is a different between white and blacks. Slaves did come here racist. When you beat the crape out of someone for three hundred years what makes you think they will love you???
Where have you been for the last 59 years? And have you not had some history lessons in your life time? Enough is enough. Stand on your own and do not expect the entire country to keep supporting you. Do what everyone else does, get a job and grow up. The work ethic should be the backbone of public assistance, not the free ride for loafers. Sorry Doc but you need to face the rest of the FACTS! And all immigrants of all races have been on the shit list before. Blacks need to get over it! I am sick of paying for their offended feelings, we all are!
I have never been unemployed from the age of 18 to 62. 21 yr. in the AF. So you have never paid a dime for me. As far as getting over it hell you sob’s do every dirty trick. How are you paying for offenance??
So, let’s stop trying to appease Blacks and let them fester in their own self-imposed IGNORANCE! And it’s time for US to stop being easy targets for their hatred….arm yourselves, America. The crazy racist white-haters are assaultting us every minute of everyday! Just because the MEDIA (Leftists) have stopped reporting on the Black-on-White crimes in OUR country doesn’t mean it’s not happening! Wake up! Wise up! Stand up!
I don’t need appeasement just be fair. As far as blacks on white crime look this up Slavery by another name.
I DO NOT WANT 2C THAT DYKE EVER AGAIN!!!!! I DO NOT GIVE A FLYING F**K WHAT SHE DOES, WEARS OR EATS!!!@!!!!!!!!!!
She is a racist, do nothing , tax money sucking nobody, what a TV turn off. She’s gone. When will the media realize she is irrelevant unless its about the Obams corruption .
I was going to watch the ESPY’S but when I found out She was going to be on it I got out some old movies and watched them instead!!!!
One can NOT fix stupid! And apparently the infected left libturds will continue on with their rebellion and honoring the administration that tried to destroy the US. We must remember these people are the enemy within! And a bunch live in the hollyweed of la la land!
Amen, and remember, THEY consider the likes of US, and “Fly-Over Country” “THE Enemy”. It would be a grave mistake to underestimate not only the hatred the left bears toward conservative, non-leftists.. and the lengths they would go to dispose of us given the power. They simply do not think of non-leftists as humans. It’s easier to round up, jail, torture and kill a de-humanised enemy. A generation or more has been taught the politics of dehumanisation in public schools. Ever see the old newsreel clips released by Joseph Goebbels and other propagandists of the Hitler regime? Jews were depicted as rats and other vermin in need of extermination so that the “good” could live safely. Think about it! And con sider who the Left- Michell
She and her husband did great harm to AMERICA. Exile them.
No, throw them in Prison, they are too dangerous to be free! The Donkey proves it everywhere he goes! He’s been following President Trump around the world and making a Menace of Himself!
Minimalize the SS details, put him under House Arrest at the Least!!
ESPN? Didn’t realize they were still on the air. Quit watching when they went full sjw a couple of years ago.
The Jewish Control Media have committed treason against the American people and our country on almost every award show and news media broadcast.
JEWS ARE BRAINWASHING OUR PEOPLE AND A HUGE THREAT TO AMERICA. WE HAVE BEEN WARN ABOUT THESE JEWS DECADES AGO .
WAKE UP USA!

They are liberal, of course they think we are stupid.
PUKE
ABC/DISNEY and ESPN is losing the TV watching public. Their COMMIECRAT slant and their pure propaganda is worn thin with the majority of Americans. As their Communist intentions move forward, the brain washing and indoctrination of our children we are becoming more ready for the civil war they have been pushing for. They want the 1918 Russian Revolution here and remember they MURDER CHILDREN of people who had opposing views and when the Soviet Union fell, the CARD Carrying COMMIES were billionaires. It is ALL about Taking away peoples freedom so NANCY PELOSI, AL GORE and the Murdering CLINTON’S can steal even more money from the slaves they want “AMERICANS”
There was nothing wrong with Mrs Obama presenting an award at the ESPY’s. Damn, didn’t your side win?? You should be happy as hell, yet you are some of the miserable people on the planet. I guess you think it would be more appropriate for the 1st ho in the White House Melania man-wife to present the award instead, hummmmmmm……..
Who let that guy dress like a woman ? It is most defiantly a racist and has proved it numerous times with statements like “this is the first time I was proud of my country” I am assuming that thing and Obama meant in Africa, because she is always talking about Obamas homeland and birthplace I have no idea what that clown is permitted to speak anywhere as it has no status other then being part of the conspiracy to defraud the American People for 8 years plus !
As far as Dim-o-crats getting on the voter fraud people , I am guessing they were not aware of all those people copying down names of the dead and birthdates so they could used those names to vote , thanks to Obumbels lackey Eric Holder not requiring identification to vote , or the many reports of busses trucking illegals to several voting sites to vote several times ! , How else would some as stupid as Obama get 125% of votes in not one but several percent’s , voter was wide spread in the last two elections, how else would and unknown with a Muslim name win in a year that we were at war with a Muslim nation? They should have impeached that animal for any of the deals he made with our countries enemy’s He should be arrested now and thrown for his role in giving information to the Taliban on Extortion 7’s Id numbers, Benghazi, the Russian Uranium deal and helping Iraq get Nuclear power ! Something should be done so that our enemies can never perpetrate a fraud of this nature again , Obama should be billed for his lavish vacations and the illegal of Air Force 1 when he was not on board letting his butt buddy bilk the American people out of more money !
the mother of keith olbermann….nuff said !!! ESPN is going down the tubes with CNN !!!
Do not waste your time watching any shows that are not worth it for you. Pick something worthwhile at all times and maybe there will be better programming in the future. If you hit them in the pocket, they will get the message quick. Honey Boo Boo comes to mind. Totally idiotic.
I didn’t vote for Trump. I thought he was the SECOND worst choice for president. But I have to say, overall, I think he’s done a decent job, despite the yapping of the lamestream media jackals. I don’t have a problem with Michelle Obozo presenting an award. It’s no big deal. If all the libtards comported themselves in this matter, maybe we could get on with Making America Great Again. Unfortunately, the average libtard is nowhere near as inoffensive as Michelle Obozo, so until we can set up a hunting permit system, we’ll all have to deal with them in our own ways.
The obvious reason they (liberals) adore minorities…THE STANDARDS AREN’T AS HIGH! Movies, music, TV…none of it has to appeal to a PERSON WITH A BRAIN, MORAL OR TRUE VALUES!!! They don’t have to demonstrate intellect or principles…just keep catering to the basest/ lowest instincts.
Did YOU watch the “ESPY’S? I didn’t. I think I was busy WORKING.
She’s nothing but a RACIST. She and her husband BELONG in prison. He almost RUINED our country. And the DOJ and James Comey just let him off the hook. And then started a WITCH HUNT against Trump. But that’s ok. It’s going to all come back on every single Democrat involved. Even you Hillary Clinton.
I see Mikey is back its time to take stock of everything she has NOT done for the Country SHE IS NOT PROUD OF. GET OFF STAGE
They don’t think so, they are convinced. Look how they are playing with the safety of America trying to hurt Trump. You cannot imagine, America, the danger you are in, you have never experienced what is really behind all this rejection.
Well, as we all know, Michelle is quite the athlete, verbal that is…
Be that as it may, I never, EVER, watch ANY awards show. If the elite prim donas want to congratulate themselves, they can do it in private.
Michelle is a former first lady .
Ask those in the Heartland of America (or flyover states) who turned the Electoral College map almost solid Red & the ones who pay for all the Democrats SS (slacker society) what we think of the Obamas. Then ask us what we think of the entertainment industry’s opinions on just about anything. And that? We see an industry of those with few morals, values & principles is what we see & we see a media that tries to make Americans with moral fiber think we are the few & the brave. Well, we are not & those Obama & the Libtard media says are the majority have been lied to again by that empty suit pathological liar. ➡️ SEE RED ELECTORAL COLLEGE MAP AFTER LAST 11/8 FOR PROOF AS TO WHO AMWRICA’S BRAIN TRUST & MAJORITY REALLY ARE.
The Dems with their race-baiting, Soros-financed, non-working pyromaniacs would burn America to the ground with the influence they received under Obama/Soros/Alinsky & Marx.
PROBLEM IS……..we who clung to our guns & religion are not that wild about their Libtard direction for America & will use both of the aforementioned to prevent America from becoming the Obamas perverted version with their black liberation theology that comes straight from the pits of hell.
Sometimes it seems you just can’t keep the stench of the septic tank from overwhelming you.
And that “performance” brought out the stench in spades. (And it seems that AOL’s search engine doesn’t like the term since it doesn’t allow an explanation or definition of meaning to be brought up. All it does is say: “Your search for “what does the term in spades mean?” returned no results.”
Apparently they’re too stupid to know what the phrase means and put a racial spin on everything.
But then……..
Good thing to remember that the Left considers conservatives and “fly over” people as being worse than cavemen because we think outside THEIR box and oppose them politically and socially. They seek to dehumanise conservatives in every way they can- entertainment awards are as good a place as any because they are a collective example of liberal group-think. They look at fly-over people as being “vermin” as Goebbels called Jews in various propaganda films… dangerous as being a drag on social change and a threat to their communist one-world view. It’s easier to round-up, jail, and kill people who are no longer human- and it’s easier to get people to assent to such actions if the “softening up” process is prepared for it by presenting certain groups as a “grave danger” or threat to society and all that is “good”. Just sayin- the Lefties want our conservative butts to disappear permanently… The Berkeley lefties that rioted after Trump was elected are the early shock-troops.. expect more of same as the left stretches it’s muscles… groups in opposition to that left agenda will have to work together to oppose these groups who want to be lords of the streets and the only people allowed to express dissent publicly.
The Obama’s certainly didn’t make the world “more welcoming, inclusive and fair” for innocent unborn children, now did they? Michelle would be the first one to support aborting those special olympics athletes who were on stage with her.
