Michelle Obama Delivers Big At DNC

Former First Lady Michelle Obama delivers blistering attack against President Trump in first night of DNC

(Tuesday, August 18, 2020) – Former First Lady Michelle Obama didn’t hold back last night as she delivered the keynote speech at the virtual kick-off of the 2020 Democratic National Convention.

Saying things will certainly get worse not better if President Trump remains in office, Obama was quick to deliver a call to action. “We have got to vote like we did in 2008 and 2012.  We’ve got to show up with the same level of passion and hope for Joe Biden,” said Obama.

Wearing a “VOTE” necklace, Obama said Donald Trump is the wrong president for our nation.  “He has had more than enough time to prove that he can do the job, but he is clearly in over his head.  He cannot meet this moment.  He simply cannot be who we need him to be for us.  It is what it is.”


Obama’s speech ended a night of a diverse group of democrats all backing Joe Biden for president.  There were even some republicans who chimed in lending their support, including former Governors John Kasich of Ohio and Christine Todd Whitman of New Jersey.

DC Mayor Muriel made a live appearance from the city overlooking Black Lives Matter Plaza.  She criticized Trump for his handling of the protests following the police death of George Floyd.

Tonight, Biden’s wife Jill Biden and Former President Bill Clinton will be among the speakers for round two of DNC.
