President Donald J. Trump took to Twitter Tuesday to fire back at former first lady Michelle Obama, saying he wouldn’t have been elected “if it weren’t for the job done” by her husband, former President Barack Hussein Obama.
The Commander in Chief’s tweets come after Michelle Obama criticized Trump and his administration during a pre-recorded speech for the 2020 Democratic National Convention, saying that his White House operates in “chaos” and without “empathy,” while urging voters to cast their ballots for Joe Biden like their lives depend on it.
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,” President Donald Trump tweeted Tuesday.

The president went on to say that his administration has “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”, adding: “Jobs are flowing, NASDAQ is already at a record high, the rest to follow. Sit back & watch!”
