Trump’s attempt to mock Michelle Obama was a self-own of epic proportions

The Democratic National Convention – their party conference, basically – is a virtual affair this year, for obvious reasons, with keynote speakers delivering addresses via video.

Former First Lady, Michelle Obama, gave a widely lauded speech, during which she described Trump as being “in over his head.”

The observation must have stung the thin-skinned President, as he responded by telling a journalist she was in over her head. He was only a heartbeat away from saying “I’m rubber, you’re glue …”

Even more baffling was his attempt to own Michelle Obama by referencing the fact that her speech wasn’t broadcast live.

Yes – he’ll love that.
