Obama calls for ‘big’ win to repudiate ‘dangerous’ Trump

Obama is the third Clinton surrogate to visit Arizona this week. The surprise is that it’s not coming from the president.

But at a rally in North Carolina on Friday, the Republican nominee said that “all she wants to do is campaign” before accusing her of attacking Mrs Clinton.

The first lady reminded voters that her husband lost Arizona in 2012 by 208,000 votes, acknowledging “that’s OK” but pressing the crowd that the election is much closer this year.

Mr Trump also complained that “all she (Michelle Obama) wants to do is campaign“.

Obama made those comments a number of times on the stump for her husband.

United States President Barack Obama has said that Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s comment that he would accept the results of the election if he wins, is “dangerous” and is an insult to the American democracy. “A candidate who calls on us to turn against each other, to build walls – to be afraid”, she said.

“And to make matters worse, it now seems very clear that this isn’t an isolated incident”, Mrs. Obama said. Still more damage probably is yet to come.

Much of her speech focused on unifying the nation and drawing contrasts between Clinton and Trump, her Republican opponent. Bernie Sanders and Sen. There have been reports quoting former senior advisor to President Obama, David Axelrod, as saying he would bet everything that Michelle would not seek public office like Hillary. According to the campaign, she drew a crowd of 7,000 in Phoenix, the heart of normally conservative Arizona.

“Her speeches have been more political”, McBride said.

This year the pattern was exemplified by Wednesday night’s debate, in which just one of six issue areas identified by moderator Chris Wallace was “global hot spots”, which translated more narrowly into a question about Aleppo and US troops in Iraq.

But, fortunately, another candidate in this race, Hillary, knows that the country is powerful, vibrant and strong, and “big enough to have a place for all of us, and that each of us is a precious part of the great American story”, she said.

The first lady also slammed Trump for his claims that the election is “rigged“, an assertion for which the GOP presidential candidate has offered no evidence.

The debate ending like it started, with no handshake, Trump alone at his podium, tearing off his notes, stuffing them in his pocket as Hillary Clinton walked away.

If Hillary Clinton is victorious next month, she will be the first non-incumbent Democrat to win an election to succeed another Democrat since James Buchanan won in 1856.

Look, it’s certainly possible that Michelle Obama was taking a veiled shot at the Clintons’ rocky personal lives and providing her own family as a more attractive contrast to it. Politicians do this kind of thing so that they will have plausible deniability, but the media will still write about it as if it were an attack.

“It’s sort of wrapping up time where’s it’s never wrapping up time for the president”, said McBride, who was chief of staff to first lady Laura Bush.
