Michelle Obama’s speech on Donald Trump was remarkable; Washington Post, 10/13/16

Chris Cillizza, Washington Post; Michelle Obama’s speech on Donald Trump was remarkable:

"This speech, along with her address at the Democratic National Convention, are two of the best speeches — maybe the two best — given by any public figure this year. Both, yes, were made by a partisan in support of a partisan candidate for president. But neither felt like the typical party pap. In that speech in July and again Thursday, Obama was able to tap into something far deeper than “Democrat” or “Republican.” She was, in both instances, speaking to a shared humanity that we could all use more of no matter our political inclinations."
