Trump slams Michelle Obama ‘wrong president’ DNC speech
President Trump hit back at former First Lady Michelle Obama Tuesday morning following her Monday evening headlining speech at the Democratic National Convention.
“Somebody please explain to @MichelleObama 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 & unenthusiastic endorsement,” the commander-in-chief tweeted Tuesday morning.
The president continued that, “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!”
The pair of tweets marked Trump’s first official response to the former first lady’s speech.
During her speech Monday, Obama criticized her husband’s successor, calling him “the wrong president for our country” who was “clearly in over his head.”
“Let me be as honest and clear as I possibly can. Donald Trump is the wrong president for our country.
“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,” she said.
