What Went Down On The First Night Of The Democratic National Convention

Obama making the “Are you better off than you were four years ago?” argument here pretty directly.

Hard not to cast our minds back to Michelle Obama’s speech at the 2016 DNC, which was one of the more memorable, knockout political speeches in recent history with her “When they go low, we go high” line.

This speech has a kind of homey feel, and it’s striking to see Michelle Obama in her home rather than at a podium. More of a personal, heart-to-heart vibe than the usual lofty rhetoric we’d be getting right now from a stage.
