Michelle Obama gave such a beautiful speech in 2016, which many dismissed as out of touch, but was trying to appeal to a better America she hoped for, even if she likely knew it didn't exist. 

 

This year her speech was cutting and just as powerful, and made the most of the lack of applause and hollering - that "it is what it is," followed by silence, was more brutally effective than a million campaign ads can ever be. 

 

I'm glad she never has run for politics as the same racists and hatemongers who have spent a decade assailing her and her family would have really gone into overdrive, but it's our loss, not hers.
