Donald Trump lashed out Tuesday at former first lady Michelle Obama after she delivered a scathing takedown of his leadership at the Democratic National Convention, while two ex-presidents prepared their own arguments against the White House occupant.
The party is gathering virtually over four days to formally nominate Joe Biden and showcase why their candidate should replace Trump, with Barack Obama's wife offering a stinging criticism of the president as a man lacking the character and skills for the job.
Biden"will tell the truth, and trust science," she said in a jab at Trump, who has been accused of ignoring the advice of scientists on how to respond to a health crisis which has left more than 171,000 Americans dead and millions without jobs. Also on tap is New York Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a rising star in the progressive wing of the party.
Former president Obama will speak on Wednesday along with 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and Biden's running mate, Senator Kamala Harris of California.
