First Lady Michelle Obama delivered the best slam on Trump of the night at the Democratic convention.
Earlier in her speech, First Lady Obama called out the birthers, but her biggest slam was delivered on Donald Trump.
The First Lady said, “Hillary did not pack up and go home, because as a true public servant, Hillary knows that this is so much bigger than her own desires and disappointments.”

Later, she added, “But here’s the thing what I admire most about Hillary is that she never buckles under pressure. She never takes the easy way out. And Hillary Clinton has never quit on anything in her life, and when I think about the kind of president that I want for my girls and all our children, that’s what I want. I want someone with the proven strength to persevere. Someone who knows this job and takes it seriously. Someone who understands that the issues a president faces are not black and white. They cannot be boiled down to 140 characters.”
With that, Donald Trump, the cartoon character who wants to be president was put in his place.
