United States
President Donald Trump, on Tuesday, took to Twitter to hit back at Michelle Obama
describing the
former first lady’s speech at the Democratic National Convention as
“extremely divisive” and claimed that “The
ObamaBiden Administration was the most corrupt in history.”
The series of tweet by President Trump came after the former first
lady’s speech on the first day of the Democratic National Convention (DNC). He also
claimed that her husband’s Oval Office performance is what put him into the
“beautiful White House”.
Trump claimed that Obama-Biden administration was “the most corrupt
in history”, asserting that they got caught spying on his campaign, which
he said, was the “biggest political” scandal in the history of the
country.
“It’s called Treason, and more. Thanks for your very kind words
Michelle!” Trump said.
“She was over her head, and frankly she should’ve made the speech
live, which she didn’t do,” Trump told reporters at a White House event
held to commemorate the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage.
“I thought it was a very divisive speech. Extremely divisive,”
he said.
The four-day DNC, that began on Monday, will formally nominate former
vice president Joe Biden as the presidential candidate for the November
elections and Kamala Harris as the first-ever Black as well as the first-ever
American of Indian descent as a vice-presidential candidate.
The convention was initially scheduled to be held in Wisconsin but it
began virtually on Monday amid the raging COVID-19 pandemic.
In her closing remarks, Michelle said that Trump was the “wrong
president” for the United States.
“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,” Michelle said
in her speech that was recorded before Harris was picked by Biden as his
running mate on Wednesday.
“She taped it. It was taped a long time ago because she had the
wrong deaths. She didn’t even mention the vice-presidential candidate in the
speech. She gets these fawning reviews. If you gave a real review it wouldn’t
be so fawning,” Trump said.
The President also tweeted, “Somebody please explain to Michelle Obama that Donald J Trump
would not be here, in the beautiful White House, if it weren’t for the job done
by your husband, Barack Obama. Biden was merely an afterthought, a good reason
for that very late and unenthusiastic endorsement.”
“My Administration and I built the greatest economy in history, of
any country, turned it off, saved millions of lives, and now am building an
even greater economy than it was before. Jobs are flowing, NASDAQ is already at
a record high, the rest to follow. Sit back & watch!” Trump said.
