So much for when they go low, we go high.
Former First Lady Michelle Obama took the lowest of low roads.
And Michelle Obama launched this sick, racist attack on Donald Trump.
Michelle Obama plays the race card during her convention speech
Democrats built night two of their convention around speeches by Barack and Michelle Obama.
The two smeared Donald Trump personally.
Michelle Obama resorted to the tired attack of calling Donald Trump a racist because he thought Barack Obama did a bad job as President.
“We know folks are gonna do everything they can to distort her truth. My husband and I, sadly, know a little something about this,” the former First Lady said.
Michelle Obama tried to retcon history to make it seem like Trump built his political movement on whipping up fear in white Americans over a black family in the White House.
“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,” Michelle Obama added.
Donald Trump became a political phenomenon because Trump spoke for millions of Americans tired of liberal elites like Barack and Michelle Obama acting in their own interests and leaving the working class behind.
During his Presidency, Obama crafted the globalist Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal that would have shipped more manufacturing jobs to Asia.
Obama started an unconstitutional war in Syria where troops that come from Middle America were stationed.
And Obama opened the border to a previously unheard-of influx of illegal aliens as well as unvetted Syrian refugees.
Michelle Obama then mocked Trump for seeking the “black job” of President of the United States – an allusion to a line from the debate between Trump and Joe Biden and the fact that Barack Obama preceded Trump in office and that Kamala Harris is his opponent.
“Who’s gonna tell him that the job he’s currently seeking might just be one of those ‘black jobs?’” Michelle Obama jabbed.

No former First Lady ever used a convention speech to make racist attacks on their opponent before.
But Democrats are desperate to win in November, so it’s anything goes territory for the Left.
What Donald Trump really said
Michelle Obama’s racist broadside against Trump and “black jobs” came from a moment in the June 27 debate where both Trump and Biden were asked how they would help the black community.
Trump explained that he would seal the southern border and stop the influx of illegal aliens into the country who were taking jobs away from black Americans.
“They’re taking black jobs now and it could be 18. It could be 19 and even 20 million people. They’re taking black jobs and they’re taking Hispanic jobs and you haven’t seen it yet, but you’re going to see something that’s going to be the worst in our history,” Trump said.
The media and Michelle Obama then spun a lie to claim Trump thinks only certain menial jobs are acceptable for black Americans to hold.
But the big lie doesn’t appear to be working as polls consistently show Donald Trump winning around 20 percent of the black vote.
