trump's parting shot at Michelle Obama.
"Trump is closing out his election campaign by bringing up the fact that he’d like to “hit back” at former first lady
Michelle Obama.
At a rally in Raleigh, North Carolina, on Monday, the GOP candidate
asked a crowd of supporters whether he was “allowed to hit her now” after claiming that the former first lady had “hit me” — an apparent reference to her recent speech calling Trump “a
criminal and an abuser.”
Trump had already
appeared to threaten Michelle Obama at a previous rally, noting ominously that she’d made “a big mistake” by criticizing him, but his latest outburst is an escalation in his language and appears to deliberately lean into the ambiguity of the word “hit.”
