First Lady Michelle Obama Stumps for Clinton in Arizona

First Lady Michelle Obama slammed Donald Trump today in Arizona, a state that has not voted for a Democrat since 1996 but polling shows is in play for Hillary Clinton.

"We have a candidate whose vision for our country is completely and utterly lacking in hope," she said of Trump. "A candidate who tells us that our country is desperate and weak, that our communities are in chaos, that our fellow citizens are a threat, a candidate who calls on us to turn against each other, to build walls, to be afraid."

Contending that Trump "comes from a different place," the first lady worked to contrast the billionaire's upbringing against the life experience of Clinton, herself and President Barack Obama.

"I don't know. Perhaps living life high up in a tower in a world of exclusive clubs, measuring success by wins and losses, the number of zeroes in your bank account, perhaps you just develop a different set of values," she said.
