Michelle Obama delivered a passionate rebuke of President Donald Trump's time in office during a speech at the Democratic National Convention on Monday night.
“I am one of the handful of people living today who have seen firsthand the immense weight and the awesome power of the presidency,” Obama, 56, said Monday at the DNC. “Let me again tell you this: The job is hard.”
She listed a myriad of familiar criticisms of Trump's term in office, citing everything from his inflammatory, racist and sexist rhetoric to his decision to turn federal agents on protesters outside the White House in June. “Being president doesn’t change who you are, it reveals who you are,” Obama said, adding, “well, a presidential election can reveal who we are too."
She said that “we’ve all been living the consequences” of the 2016 election as she called on voters to turn out for the Nov. 3 vote between Trump, 74, and Biden, 77.
