Michelle Obama calls on women to rise up against Trump
The Politico ^ | October 13, 2016 | Louis Nelson

'The belief you can do anything to a woman? It is cruel. It's frightening. And the truth is, it hurts. It hurts,' the first lady said in an emotional speech.

First lady Michelle Obama delivered a powerful and emotional rebuke to Donald Trump on Thursday, saying his vulgar comments on sexual assault “have shaken me to my core," while calling on women to rise up against the Republican nominee.

“The fact is in this election we have a candidate for president of the United States who over the course of his lifetime and the course of this campaign has said things about women that are so shocking, so demeaning, I simply will not repeat anything here today,” she said at a campaign rally in New Hampshire. “And last week we saw this candidate actually bragging about sexual assaulting women. I can't believe I'm saying that a candidate for president of the United States has bragged about sexually assaulting women.”(continued)

Ask yourself: Would they be doing this if they thought they were winning?

Good point. It smacks of desperation just like dragging Al Gore out of mothballs to supposedly get MILLENIALS.

Yes, I think they would because it takes the focus off of the email dumps and puts it on Trump.

I never saw anyone deliver a more insincere speech. Worse than Hillary.

Michelle’s default position is to portray someone with a major chip on her shoulder and chronic righteous indignation.

So says the woman who happily invites 'rappers' to the White House and revels in their misogynist and hate mongering 'songs'.

The fake indignation is strong with this one.

Meanwhile, Trump talking dirty 11 years ago is more important than her treasonous “husband” wrecking our military and allowing millions of disease ridden illegal aliens to invade America.

Moochelle is an idiot.

Conventional wisdom would say no, they would not be doing this if they thought they were winning, or if they had a definite plan to steal the election.

But, this is Hillary. She is overkill in everything when it comes to power and money.

but Michelle - you and your husband demand that men be allowed in girls bathrooms. So who’s really worse for women? A man who likes to airkiss or your unleashing of perverts?

I had a breakthrough moment today with a lib.

She was talking about this President Trump thing, as she’s been utterly brainwashed to do.

I pointed out that it took months of efforts, petitions and protests to get Disney to make a Rey action figure for the latest Star Wars - because Disney didn’t believe that a woman should be an action figure.
She’s the lead character.

I also pointed out that Scarlette Johansen’s “Black Widow” character wouldn’t get it’s own movie for the same reason - a female action figure wouldn’t sell. And then said that even an Avenger’s villain was changed from a woman to a man because of the toy licencing and sales risks.

I learned all of this today on a youtube channel. But still it’s good food for thought. What one dude says to another dude is NOTHING compared to the reality of female degradation that is everywhere, unchecked.

“...saying his vulgar comments on sexual assault...”

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.
