Even with the recent elections and runoffs in Georgia, the COVID-19 pandemic continues in the United States. As the number of cases and deaths continue to rise, former first lady Michelle Obama hits out at outgoing president Donald Trump again for his administration’s response to the pandemic.
In the midst of encouraging Georgia residents to vote in the Senate runoff elections, Michelle took to Twitter to rip into Trump again through a multiple-tweet thread. Aside from urging residents in the state to vote and encouraging voter participation, Michelle also took a swipe at the outgoing president for his constant focus on staying in power rather than take further action towards the pandemic that has claimed nearly 400,000 lives. The former first lady also criticized Trump’s constant attempts to overturn the elections, even after his phone conversation with Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger asking to find 11,780 votes for him surfaced.
“Your vote is your voice. It’s your power. And right now, from the President of the United States on down, we’re seeing and hearing just how desperate some are to take that power away. They want us to believe that their pride is more important than democracy,” tweeted Michelle. “And this is just unconscionable at a time when a staggering number of Americans are dying every day from a virus that was downplayed for far too long…”
To this day, Trump has pushed his claims of voter fraud and has refused to concede to president-elect Joe Biden. Trump has largely been unsuccessful in his attempts to contest the election results in swing states including the lawsuits filed to the Supreme Court. The recording of the conversation with Raffensperger is the latest attempt by Trump to overturn the election.
Recently, Mrs. Obama was named “Most Admired Woman” by the Gallup poll for the third year in a row. Alongside the former first lady, Trump beat out her husband, former President Barack Obama for the “Most Admired Man” title, ending Obama’s 12-year streak. The two presidents were previously tied back in 2019, but this year Trump came out on top of the poll as 18 percent of those who responded named him while 15 percent named the former president.
