‘Who’s Gonna Tell Him?’ Michelle Obama Sends Convention Into Frenzy With Trump Jab, Says Presidency ‘Might Just Be One of Those Black Jobs’

Former First Lady Michelle Obama sent the Democratic National Convention into a frenzy on Tuesday after she shot back at former President Donald Trump’s remarks about “Black jobs.”

After praising Vice President Kamala Harris’s “laughter and her light,” Obama said:

Now, unfortunately, we know what comes next. We know folks are gonna do everything they can to distort her truth. My husband and I sadly know a little something about this. For years, Donald Trump did everything in his power to try to make people fear us. See, his limited, narrow view of the world made him feel threatened by the existence of two hard-working, highly educated successful people who happen to be Black.

Obama then referenced Trump’s controversial remarks about “Black jobs,” quipping, “I want to know, who’s gonna tell him that the job he’s currently seeking might just be one of those Black jobs?” as the audience erupted.

“The same old con,” she continued. “Doubling down on ugly, misogynistic, racist lies as a substitute for real ideas and solutions that will actually make people’s lives better. Look, because cutting our healthcare, taking away our freedom to control our bodies, the freedom to become a mother through IVF like I did, those things are not gonna improve the health outcomes of our wives, mothers, and daughters.”

She concluded, “Shutting down the Department of Education, banning our books, none of that will prepare our kids for the future.”
