Former first lady Michelle Obama recently spoke out against Donald Trump's anticipated attacks on Kamala Harris in the upcoming election. Drawing from her own experiences, Obama highlighted Trump's history of attempting to instill fear in people, particularly targeting successful Black individuals like herself and her husband.
Obama pointed out that Trump's actions stem from a narrow and limited worldview that perceives hard-working and educated Black individuals as threats. She questioned whether Trump realizes that the position he is vying for could be considered one of those 'Black jobs' he seems to fear.
Furthermore, Obama criticized Trump's policies, specifically citing his efforts to restrict reproductive rights and cut healthcare access. She condemned Trump's reliance on divisive tactics, describing his approach as centered on spreading 'ugly, misogynist, racist lies' instead of offering genuine solutions to improve people's lives.
By speaking out against Trump's tactics and policies, Obama aims to shed light on what she perceives as detrimental behavior that undermines the progress towards equality and justice.
