Michelle Obama takes jabs at Trump
The former first lady took several subtle and clear jabs at former President Donald Trump, contrasting his past scandals with Harris' years of accomplishments.
"She understands that most of us will never be afforded the grace of failing forward we will never benefit from the affirmative action of generational wealth," she said.
"If we bankrupt a business or choke in a crisis, we don’t get a second, third, or fourth chance," she added.
Michelle Obama got more direct and noted that Trump "did everything in his power to try to make people fear us."
"His limited and narrow view of the world made him feel threatened by the existence of two hardworking, highly educated, successful people who also happened to be Black," she said.

"Who’s going to tell him that the job he’s currently seeking might just be one of those 'Black jobs?'" Obama asked to a cheering crowd.
"It’s his same old con: doubling down on ugly, misogynistic, racist lies as a substitute for real ideas and solutions that will actually make people’s lives better," she added.
