On the March 2 edition of his Premiere Radio Networks’ radio show, conservative radio and television host Sean Hannity made the eye-popping claim that “nobody” had ever picked on Michelle Obama or her daughters, 18-year-old Malia and 15-year-old Sasha.

He made the claim while talking about the horrific treatment that women like Kellyanne Conway and children like Barron Trump have received, saying:
I think that’s the lowest of low; we’re going to pick on a woman — well, multiple women, because they pick on Kellyanne. Have a congressman, what’s his name, Cedric Richmond, quote, “joking,” “Conway looked very familiar in that position on the couch in the White House on her knees.“ Wow. How disgusting and despicable a human being is he? Can you imagine if anyone — which, God forbid, would ever say that about Hillary? Or Michelle Obama? How well would the reaction be? They’re attacking a 10-year-old kid because he’s fidgety at three in the morning. I’m fidgety and I’m 55 years old. Leave the kid alone. Nobody picked on Malia and Sasha, no conservative that I know of. Nobody picked on Michelle Obama except for the stupid statements, “for the first time in my adult life I’m proud of my country,” she inserted herself into the campaign. If she’s going to say something like that then she deserves to be criticized.
The statement has received backlash because Michelle and her daughters received non-stop criticism during their years in the White House for everything from their appearance to their behavior.

Not long after he made the statement, a video started circulating showing multiples conservatives, including talk show host Rush Limbaugh, InfoWars creator Alex Jones, Fox News host Greg Gutfield, and The Blaze creator Glenn Beck – just to name a few, making unkind comments about Michelle and her daughters.
