Michelle Obama Is Reportedly Stepping Into 2020 Election And It's Going To Make Trump Very Unhappy

On Thursday, Michelle Obama took her first concrete step toward being a factor in the 2020 election. Her nonpartisan voting initiative, When We All Vote, which she founded months before the 2018 midterms, announced a coalition of 31 mayors across the country who will be brainstorming and sharing lessons and practices about how to increase voter registration and civic engagement.

Mrs. Obama pointed out in a Zoom call with her coalition that “This pandemic will likely have a significant impact on the November election and on how voters across the country cast their ballots. Already in state and local elections, we’ve seen voters forced to choose between protecting their health and making their voices heard. And that’s absolutely not acceptable.''

I've met her several times. The dedication of Florence Nightingale combined with the intellect of Eleanor Roosevelt, the savvy of Oprah and the grace and wit of Maxine Waters, Barbara Jordan or Meryl Streep.

She can chew you up and spit you out quietly and subtly before you ever realize that you were on the menu. Fox Noise knows this and mostly lays off. A Republican has to be REALLY be desperate to attack Michelle Obama.

Look at trump's publically available poll numbers. Rumor is his internal poll numbers are worse. So bad that trump threatened to sue his campaign manager.

I would risk my life on November 3rd for the opportunity to vote against Trump. But please, Trump campaign, spend and waste as much money as you can trying to make me do the opposite. It won’t work, I will vote November 3. I will vote the first day early voting is available. I will vote by mail as soon as legally permissible. I will vote. And it won’t be for the corrupt incumbent.

Seeing the campaign go bankrupt is just an added bonus for me, so spend as much as you can trying to change my mind.
