Democrats hoping to slap an "Obama 2028" bumper sticker on their car are going to be disappointed ... because Michelle Obama says she's not making a run at the White House until the country grows up a bit.

The former First Lady sat down for a conversation with Tracee Ellis Ross for an interview released today ... and Tracee asked a question about whether perceived femininity makes it difficult for women to ascend to the Oval Office.

Tony -- who has appeared in "Battle Camp" and "The Mole" on Netflix -- says he loudly called Flyy and others "NPCs" -- Non-Player Characters, a Gen Z insult referring to someone as "bot."
