Trump hits back at Michelle Obama after vicious criticism

US President Trump  hits back at Michelle Obama after the former first lady issued a blistering criticism of the ‘ “wrong president”  during remarks at the first virtual Democratic convention.

Trump tweeted “Somebody please explain to @MichelleObama that Donald J. Trump would not be here, in the beautiful White House, if it weren’t for the job done by your husband, Barack Obama,”

Somebody please explain to @MichelleObama that Donald J. Trump would not be here, in the beautiful White House, if it weren’t for the job done by your husband, Barack Obama. Biden was merely an afterthought, a good reason for that very late & unenthusiastic endorsement…..

He told the former first lady to “sit back and watch”.

….My Administration and I built the greatest economy in history, of any country, turned it off, saved millions of lives, and now am building an even greater economy than it was before. Jobs are flowing, NASDAQ is already at a record high, the rest to follow. Sit back & watch!

He was also back on a favourite theme of how the Obama administration reacted to the H1N1 swine flu outbreak after Obama said that “He is clearly in over his head. It is what it is”a as 1,000 Americans were dying each day as a result of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic
