Trump insults Michelle Obama: “She’s disgusting”

Trump has insulted former first lady Michelle Obama, calling her “disgusting” days after she questioned his mental state during a campaign rally in support of Vice President Kamala Harris. In a speech before hundreds of his followers in Atlanta, the capital of Georgia – a key state in these elections – the Republican said that the wife of former President Barack Obama (2009-2017) made a “serious mistake” by criticizing him: “always “I’ve tried to be kind and respectful (…) I shouldn’t have done that,” Trump said.

Trump’s comments come two days after Obama confessed to being “angry” at the American public’s “indifference” to Trump’s “erratic behavior, obvious mental deterioration” and his “history as a convicted felon.” “All this, while we scrutinize the answers that Kamala gives in interviews that he doesn’t even have the courage to give,” added the Democratic leader during an agitated intervention at a campaign rally with Harris in Michigan.
