Michelle Obama, in DNC speech, rips Trump White House for 'chaos' and 'lack of empathy'
Fox News ^ | August 17 2020 | Brooke Singman

Former first lady Michelle Obama, in a measured but searing address Monday to close out Democrats' opening convention night, accused President Trump's White House of operating in "chaos" and without "empathy" as she urged voters to cast their ballots for Joe Biden like their lives depend on it.

In prerecorded remarks, Obama stressed the “awesome power of the presidency,” while saying the job “requires clear-headed judgment, a mastery of complex and competing issues, a moral compass and an ability to listen.”

She added: “Whenever we look to this White House for some leadership or consultation or any semblance of steadiness, what we get instead is chaos, division and a total and utter lack of empathy.”

Oh really. I must have missed the bitch sending condolences about his lost brother. I must have missed a single act of kindness she has shown him or a single nice thing she has said about him.
I must have missed when all the presidents getting together for funerals or some other events, anyone so much as shaking his hand.

Eff these A-holes.

Let us see how stellar the TV viewing audience tuned in to see a Michelle Obama prerecorded canned speech that was sitting in some bin somewhere and all you Democrat Party fools and the American people got was not a live delivery, naught but a replay!!! Have a feeling this was the set up to allow Biden to can his remarks & maybe the Harris gab...too!!!

How many folks tuned in on TV to the gig of the evening, 12,000,000, 20,000,000, 30,000,000, 35,000,000 40,000,000 people....we shall see by tomorrow afternoon!!! If it ain’t 35,000,000 or higher.....Ms. Obama was a dud!!!

We wish. Maddow not breathing for 18 minutes will be a very good thing for humanity .
Did she send a tingle down her leg too? Moochelle and Maddow are going to need to get a room.

Has she ever reached out to support Melania for anything? Offered a single token of friendship and kindness?

Keep in mind this “convention” is fake. They are phoning it in.

No cheering throngs.
No pomp & circumstance.
No stirring rhetoric or calls to arms.
No poignant moments.
No balloons or confetti.
No nothing.

Just a bunch of canned video that nobody is watching.

Say, wasn't Moochelle have her license to practice law withdrawn back in Chicago some years back fof illegal activity?
And how is Obama’s adopted Chicago hometown and congressional district doing these days? Being reduced to a lawless, gangster ruled third world hell hole by Democratic mayor, city council and governor that's what.
Shouldn't Moochelle be concentrating on how to bring back Chicago from hell where Obama and the Democrats have put them?
Trump is going to have a lot of fun with these jokers at the RNC convention.

That is what must have made Maddow breathless for 18 minutes. Maddow was checking out Moochelle's "equipment".

I try to be objective sometimes and step back from things, and ask myself, if I were an independent/swing voter, what would I think about this? In this speech, Mooch attempted to seize the moral high ground, claiming herself and her party and Joe Biden as the paragons of virtue and decency and goodness in contrast to Donald Trump who is evil incarnate. It was a weak speech because she overdid it. No fair-minded person thinks Donald Trump is Satan. No fair-minded people thinks that Democrats and “protesters” are all saints, when they can see with their own eyes the looting, rioting and vandalism. Yet that’s what Mooch was selling. If Mooch had aggressively condemned looting and rioting and antifa, the speech could have been a solid “B.” Since she did none of those things, she gave a speech only a true-believe partisan (e.g., the hacks in the mainstream media) could love. I’d give it a “D.”
