Monday kicked off the first night of the Democratic National Convention.

The night's headliner for the completely virtual event was former first lady Michelle Obama, who made a moral case against President Trump and called him the "wrong president for our country."

She also called on Americans to vote.

Trump in response called her speech "extremely divisive."

Senator Bernie Sanders, former Ohio GOP Governor John Kasich and other former top Republicans also spoke.

Non-politicians made a big impact too.

Kristin Urquiza who lost her father, a Trump supporter, to Covid-19 gave a moving speech.

She said that in the final days of his life her father said he felt betrayed by Trump for trusting that the pandemic would go away.

Meanwhile Trump also hit the campaign trail.

He made stops in Wisconsin and Minnesota and will be making more stops over the next few days.
