However, this assertion is incorrect. The photo was actually taken during the men&#8217;s singles semi-finals at the US Open in September 2022. According to AP News, during her speech on the second night of the DNC, Obama compared Vice President Kamala Harris to her husband, former President Barack Obama, stating that &#8220;hope is making a comeback.&#8221; Barack Obama also drew parallels between himself and Harris by noting their uncommon names. The Threads post features an image of Michelle Obama with her hair tied back and wearing a low-cut blue shirt with white stripes, falsely claiming it was from the 2024 DNC. The actual caption from Getty Images describes it as: &#8220;Michelle Obama, wife of former president Barack Obama watches Frances Tiafoe of the United States against Carlos Alcaraz of Spain in the semi-final of men\u2019s singles at the US Open on September 09, 2022 in New York City.&#8221; In contrast, photos from Michelle Obama&#8217;s appearance at the 2024 DNC show her wearing a dark blue high-neck top instead.
