The article I chose was from the blog ThinkProgress written
by Adam Peck and was titled “Michelle Obama delivers the most powerful
indictment yet of Trump’s misogyny”. The blog post was about how Michelle Obama
delivered a speech on October 13, 2016 in New Hampshire that was “far from
typical”. In recent news some of Trumps past again has come up and not very
many people are happy including our current first lady. The allegations against
Trump were that he was taking pride in sexually assaulting women. Videos have
surfaced from the Washington Post that has Trump on tape bragging about how he
would sexually assault women. He did not
even bat an eye and say that they were a lie. Obama was disgusted with what she
heard and seen that she told the public that she feels sorry for our country if
he becomes president.
The audience he is trying to reach is the whole world as was
Michelle doing when she made her speech. However, more specifically I think he
was trying to target women because they would have more of an opinion about
Trumps accusations because it happened to women just like them. I agree completely
with what the author was saying but more importantly I agree hundred percent
with what Michelle Obama was saying. The author really explained it well so
that the audience could understand perfectly. It was short, sweet and to the
point. The article was also eye opening
because it was not just some random person it was Michelle Obama. More people
are more likely to listen to what she has to say because she knows firsthand by
being married to the President. In my opinion the article was great and worth a
read.
