Democratic President Nominee Kamala Harris Campaigns With Former First Lady Michelle Obama In Kalamazoo, MI

Michelle Obama, the former First Lady of the United States, knows a bit about how media will dissect a political figure’s every move and she used that firsthand knowledge to great effect. During a rally in support of Vice President Kamala Harris, Michelle Obama took shots at Harris’ opponent Donald Trump, and slammed the media’s nitpicking of the Democratic Party hopeful’s interviews in comparison to the former president.

Michelle Obama was in Kalamazoo, Mich. over the weekend at a rally for Harris and she was very clear in calling out Trump for what she framed as “gross incompetence” while Harris is expected to “dazzle” each time she’s made media appearances and during interviews.

From the speech:

So I hope you’ll forgive me if I’m a little frustrated that some of us are choosing to ignore Donald Trump’s gross incompetence while asking Kamala to dazzle us at every turn. I hope that you’ll forgive me if I’m a little angry that we are indifferent to his erratic behavior, his obvious mental decline, his history as a convicted felon, a known slumlord, a predator found liable for sexual abuse, all of this, while we pick apart Kamala’s answers from interviews that he doesn’t even have the courage to do, y’all.

To Obama’s point, Trump has elected to duck certain media appearances and debates in favor of rallies, such as the racially charged event in New York over the weekend that featured a parade of speakers spewing racist rhetoric against Puerto Ricans and Black Americans.

Harris has been under harsher lights and every gaffe is highlighted and magnified to a degree we haven’t truly seen with Trump’s campaign. No matter which side of the political aisle one stands, the difference in coverage is stark.
