MICHELLE OBAMA STEALS THE SHOW AT DNC EVENT WITH ROUSING SPEECH

 Are you watching, Melania?

Michelle Obama attacked Donald Trump without actually mentioning his name once during an emotional and powerful speech on the first night of the Democratic National Convention.

The First Lady, who was wearing a custom-made blue dress by US designer Christian Siriano, began the speech with a fun anecdote about her teenage daughters who arrived at the White House as children.

'This country is great,' she declared at one point, while firmly stating, 'I'm with her,' referring to Clinton. 

Michelle's husband, President Barack Obama, was delighted with her words, tweeting: 'Incredible speech by an incredible woman. Couldn't be more proud & our country has been blessed to have her as FLOTUS. I love you, Michelle.'
