Michelle Obama Terms Donald Trump as "Racist"; also calls said "He uses fear and confusion and spreads lies to win"

On Thursday, Former first lady Michelle Obama launched a scathing attack at President Donald Trump, accusing him of being a “racist” and not being “up to the job” and urged fellow Americans to make informed and engaged choice in the presidential election to regain stability in the country.

Pitching for Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, she made an impassioned plea through a 24-minute video, saying that the country is in chaos and the voters should know what is at stake.

My heart goes out to everyone touched by this virus, from those at the White House, especially the Secret Service and residence staff whose service ought never be taken for granted, to all those names and stories most of us will unfortunately never know. https://t.co/dtEUrcjPAy

Titled ‘Closing Argument’, the video was released on social media platforms and also by the Biden campaign. “Believe it or not, the election is right around the corner. Votes are already being cast. And if you’re still deciding who to vote for, or whether to vote at all, I wanted to take a moment to remind you what’s at stake and to urge you to make a plan to vote today. Because let’s be honest right now, our country is in chaos because of a president who isn’t up to the job,” she said in the video.

• While the presidential elections are scheduled for November 3, early-voting and mail-in-voting has already started in states across the country.

• Trump returned to the White House on Monday night after spending four days at a military hospital where he was treated for coronavirus.

• Urging people to vote for Biden, the former first lady said that Americans have the chance to elect a president who can meet this moment, a leader who has the character and the experience to put an end to this chaos, start solving these problems and help lighten the load for families all across the country.

“The one thing this president is really, really good at is using fear and confusion and spreading lies to win,” she alleged.

Former president Barack Obama and Michelle have not campaigned much in person this election season. But they have been issuing videos in support of Biden and his running mate Senator Kamala Harris. Obama has also attended a number of fundraisers for Biden and Harris.
