First lady Michelle Obama has been hitting the campaign trail for Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, and at a rally this week, she made an affirmative case for why Clinton should be the next commander in chief. She also made the opposite case, why Republican Donald Trump should not be president — but watch how Obama rhetorically kneecaps Trump without once mentioning his name. For a man who loves to put his name in gold letters on buildings and steaks and real estate courses, that's gotta sting. Peter Weber
