President Trump Fires Back At Michelle Obama After DNC Speech
Aug 18, 2020, 7:47 AM
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – President Donald Trump fired back in a series of tweets Tuesday morning following the first night of the Democratic National Convention.
Former First Lady Michelle Obama gave the headline speech at the end of the evening, saying Trump “is the wrong president for our country.”
“If you think things possibly can’t get worse, trust me, they can, and they will if we don’t make a change in this election,” she said.
Trump responded on Twitter, writing that he would not be in the White House if it weren’t for her husband, former President Barack Obama.
….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!

“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 & unenthusiastic endorsement,” the president tweeted. “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 also called Obama’s response to the H1N1 epidemic “weak and pathetic” and accused his administration of being “the most corrupt in history.”
