In an article written by Sara Ruthnum entitled "Michelle Obama's Speech Was Exactly What We Needed To Hear" we are told about the powerful speech the First Lady's gave on why Trump should not only not be elected as the next President of the United States and that Hillary Clinton should be, but also the damage that he has caused in our society throughout his campaigning. She was trying to reach out to all voters, but she was more specifically talking to women voters. Her main points were Trumps blatant sexist remarks, his degrading of women and his openness on his sexual assault and predatorial actions towards women.
“The fact is that, in this election, we have a candidate for president of the United States who over the course of his lifetime, and the course of this campaign, has said things about women that are so shocking, so demeaning that I simply will not repeat anything here today. And last week, we saw this candidate actually bragging about sexually assaulting women. I can’t believe that I’m saying that a candidate for president of the United States has bragged about sexually assaulting women. And I have to tell you that I can’t stop thinking about this. It has shaken me to my core in a way that I couldn’t have predicted.”
I mean that alone should have placed Trump unfit to even be a candidate for the presidency, but no like all his other skeletons that have come out throughout this election people are rallying right along side him. He has turned American society back to a time where women were treated as objects and seen as nothing else. He has turned societies thoughts backwards instead of pushing them forward like a future leader should be doing. This is why her speech has become so powerful because everything said is hard fact proven every day by Trump's actions. I agree with Ruthnum that Hillary Clinton will most likely win this election year, but that damage left by Trump's campaigning will be something that will remain in our society long after Hillary Clintons presidency.
