Michelle Obama has refused to stay silent following the first presidential debate of 2020. She took her thoughts to social media and revealed how Donald Trump's "behavior" turned her off.
She noted that she "feels" the public if they, also, felt the same as her. As a response to these emotions, she asked her followers to turn these feelings into action. "Turn them into votes" for Joe Biden, whom she called her "friend," she added.
Michelle Obama continued her thoughts on a separate tweet. She said that voting is the "only way" that the American public can get out of the "chaos."
Later on, she urged her audience to reach out to everyone they know, and "make sure" that they are registered. She ended her post on her third tweet by emphasizing that they need to vote for Donald Trump's rival "in numbers that cannot be denied."
Michelle Obama's encouragement on Twitter immediately received a surge of response from netizens. Almost all of the comments came from her and Biden's supporters.
If you were turned off by the President’s behavior last night, I feel you. Believe me, I do. But we can’t let him win by tuning out altogether. That’s what he wants. So turn those feelings into action—turn them into votes for my friend, @JoeBiden. pic.twitter.com/cMKoxiNWVZ — Michelle Obama (@MichelleObama) October 1, 2020
Many individuals said that they will do the things she asked them to do. "We Will Our First Lady, We Miss You. Thank you for being a Wonderful Leader and a beautiful Lady," Jackie Nunya said. "You are so correct! Thank you for the encouragement!," Carol Rifon added.
Others, meanwhile, shared what they did, and are planning to do. "I signed up to make calls in Pennsylvania for the Biden campaign," a Twitter user, who uses a photo of a "Biden-Harris 2020" ad in the header, said. "I wrote 100 postcards to Texas voters because my home state of Michigan had enough writers. Hoping to flip Texas blue!," another netizen shared.
Last night I did what the corrupt media has refused to do: I held Joe Biden Accountable for his 47 years of lies, 47 years of betrayals, and 47 years of failure. The whole nation saw the truth — Joe Biden is too weak to lead this Country! pic.twitter.com/8WepHOC0XN — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 1, 2020
There are not many criticisms on Michelle Obama's post. Donald Trump, however, shared his thoughts about the debate on his personal account. He said that he held Joe Biden "accountable" for his lies, betrayals, and failure that has continued for the last "47 years." He added that the nation "saw the truth," and that his rival is "too weak to lead" the United States.
Several of his followers agreed to him and even claimed that he is the "best president ever." Another Trump supporter echoed the U.S. President's statements saying, "Joe Biden is weak and frail. He is not what America needs in a president." User William Shores responded to the tweet and said, "AMEN!! President Trump is the greatest fighter ever in the White House, and THAT is exactly what America needs and wants!"
