Barack and Michelle Obama laid on a memorable double-act at the Democratic convention, savaging Donald Trump with wit and soaring rhetoric while embracing Kamala Harris with their high-wattage star power.
Vice President Harris was acclaimed on the convention’s second night in Chicago as the Democratic candidate to take on Trump in November’s White House election, thanking the crowd from her own rally in Milwaukee, while the Republican appeared at a town in Michigan notorious for its historic links to the Ku Klux Klan.
