Michelle Obama: Who’s going to tell Trump the presidency is a ‘Black job’?

Former first lady Michelle Obama took shot after shot at former President Trump on Tuesday night for his history of controversial remarks, including his infamous “Black jobs” remark from this year’s debate against President Biden.

In a fiery Democratic National Convention speech that began with implicit attacks and ended with explicit trolling of the former president, Obama said that of the two major candidates in this race, “only Kamala Harris truly understands the unseen labor and unwavering commitment that has always made America great.”

“Unfortunately, we know what comes next. We know folks are going to do everything they can to distort her truth,” Obama said before speaking of what she and her husband, former President Obama, endured.

“For years, Donald Trump did everything in his power to try to make people fear us,” Obama said. “His limited and narrow view of the world made him feel threatened by the existence of two hardworking, highly educated, successful people who also happened to be Black.”

Her speech drew raucous cheers, but nothing came close to the response to her referencing Trump’s Black jobs comment.

“By the way — who’s going to tell him that the job he’s currently seeking might just be one of those ‘Black jobs?’” Obama said as the crowd burst into applause.

Ahead of introducing her husband, Obama said she was doing more than asking voters to get out and vote for Harris in November — she was telling them.

“So we cannot afford for anyone to sit on their hands and wait to be called upon. … Don’t complain if no one from the campaign has specifically reached out to ask for your support. … There is simply no time for that kind of foolishness.”
