Barack Obama and Michelle Obama at the 2024 Democratic National Convention (via YouTube)
My forever President and First Lady, Barack Obama and Michelle Obama, took to the stage on the second day of the Democratic National Convention and cooked like top chefs in a five-star restaurant.
They not only fired up Democrats, they energized voters and got Twitter town on its feet.

Read below for 21 completely accurate Twitter reactions to the Obamas’ passionate, crowd-pulling speech.
Barack made a dick joke on live TV #DNC2024Chicago.
The Obamas really don’t care about anything.
And guess what? It worked for them. Trump promoted a racist birther conspiracy theory, and Republicans followed suit, forcing Obama to show his birth certificate.
Let Donald be humiliated.

I can’t tell you how cathartic it was to watch Michelle Obama vent her frustrations so thoroughly at the little man who did everything he could to make her and Barack’s lives hell.
She held back for a long time, yet still gracefully criticized Trump at length.
I am very satisfied.

OBAMA: Here is a 78-year-old billionaire who has been whining about his problems ever since he rode that golden escalator nine years ago: the childish nicknames, the crazy conspiracy theories, the strange obsession with crowd size. pic.twitter.com/WGwNOFinHK

MICHELLE OBAMA: She understands that most of us will never have the benefit of learning from our mistakes. We will never have the benefit of affirmative action for intergenerational wealth. pic.twitter.com/ywBjdwZl3E

Best moments from DNC night:
Michelle Obama asks Trump: “Who’s going to tell him that the job he’s currently seeking might just be one of those ‘black jobs’?” pic.twitter.com/z0ycTD8pJG

I will always be proud of the fact that the first person I voted for was President Obama.

Michelle Obama has said that she sat at the table with every powerful person imaginable, only to quickly realize that “they weren’t that smart.” I wonder how many women feel the exact same way when they’re in male-dominated rooms or fields.

Michelle Obama: “For years, Donald Trump has done everything in his power to make people fear us. His limited, narrow-minded view of the world made people feel threatened by two hard-working, highly educated, successful people who happened to be black.” pic.twitter.com/fsAHLKP5if

Michelle Obama is like a funeral director: She shows up for a special appearance, reminds everyone how amazing she is, wows the room, and then peacefully goes off and lives her best life.

Mrs. Obama sits in all of your “church pews,” as the older folks say.
“Don’t complain if no one from the campaign has contacted you asking for your support. We don’t have time for that kind of nonsense.”

Former President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama delivered the greatest political speech in the history of our country. This powerful couple spoke about working class families, family values, and moving our country forward together. They were strong, intelligent, compassionate, and…

Michelle Obama is probably the only person who could be president if she wanted to, but just… doesn’t.

I’m hopelessly biased, but Barack and Michelle Obama are the talents of a generation, and their speeches blew the roof off the United Center. It was a hellish night for the Harris/Waltz campaign.

Maybe it’s just me, but every time I hear President Obama speak, I feel calm and hopeful.
