It's well-demonstrated that President Donald Trump doesn't like to share the spotlight, so Monday night must have been particularly distressing, as the Democratic National Committee held the first night its first ever digital convention.
The two hour event featured numerous Democrats and more than a few Republicans making the case against another term for President Donald Trump.
The highlight of the night was the closing speech, delivered by none other than former First Lady Michelle Obama just four years after her famous "When they go low, we go high" speech. Mrs. Obama delivered her most scathing rebuke yet of President Donald Trump, calling him morally and fundamentally unfit for the office.
Mrs. Obama's address was widely praised for highlighting her ability to connect with viewers through a screen and her emotional transparency when expressing the importance of voting in November.
As one might imagine, the President was not a fan, and soon embarked on one of his infamous Twitter tirades.
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.....

....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!

Looking back into history, the response by the ObamaBiden team to the H1N1 Swine Flu was considered a weak and pathetic one. Check out the polling, it's really bad. The big difference is that they got a free pass from the Corrupt Fake News Media!

The ObamaBiden Administration was the most corrupt in history, including the fact that they got caught SPYING ON MY CAMPAIGN, the biggest political scandal in the history of our Country. It's called Treason, and more. Thanks for your very kind words Michelle!

The President yet again falsely claimed that the Obama White House was spying on him, but it was his false claims about the Obama administration's handling of the Swine Flu that generated widespread fact checks.
H1N1 U.S. deaths (2009-10): 12,469 (estimated)
COVID-19 U.S. deaths (2020): 171,606 https://t.co/i36aZx8WLX

This is a lie.
Also, Obama and Biden didn't ignore H1N1 for weeks, then claim it was a hoax or pretend it would disappear on its own, or get bored dealing with it.
Also, 170,000 Americans did not end up dying from it in the first six months. https://t.co/rhgXkoEpx0

Swine flu hit 3 months into Obama's presidency, during a catastrophic financial crisis. Deaths were kept to 12k over a year.
Coronavirus hit 3.5 years into Trump's term, during one of the best economies in decades. Yet, more than 18k people have died...in the past month. https://t.co/HiygCl6gvD

H1N1 killed about 12,500 Americans. Coronavirus has killed 170,000 Americans and counting in a much shorter span of time. https://t.co/hzwFYcKxES

Invented nonsense. Trump would be thrilled to have earned the high marks Obama got for his handling of the swine flu pandemic. https://t.co/9zQgv7Iq6w

His attempt to come for Michelle Obama didn't do him any favors either.
That dog won't hunt. People *like* Michelle Obama. https://t.co/nS78YR3xQp

Why don't you try, you sad little racist sexist? You lose in every category when sized up to Barack or Michelle or Joe. You won by a fluke. By a grave error. By the skin of your teeth. And you're about to join the ranks of the One & Done Club, and hopefully your own Club Prison! https://t.co/manDdh7kLc

As expected, today will be a day of endless raging tweeting signalling yet another Trump meltdown.
The idea of dimwit Donald attempting to explain anything to Michelle Obama is fairly hilarious. https://t.co/9SJmTTtOUW

Later on Tuesday, at a White House event commemorating women's suffrage, Trump claimed that Obama was "in over her head."
