On Monday, Joe Biden said that the first step to beat the coronavirus that has had a devastating impact on the US is to ensure President Donald Trump’s electoral defeat.
“The first step to beating the virus is defeating Donald Trump,” Joe Biden said in his second address of the day.
With almost over 10 crore Americans having already voted and millions more to exercise their franchise on Tuesday, the former vice president urged people to get out and vote in large numbers.
He said: “My message is simple. The power to change this country is in your hands. And I do not care how hard Donald Trump tries, there is nothing he can do to stop the people of this nation from voting, no matter how he tries.”
Biden said: “There was a press article last week and it read as follows — never before in modern presidential history has a candidate been so reliant on widescale efforts to repress the vote as Trump.”
Trump does not want you all voting. He does not want Americans voting. He thinks only wealthy folks should vote. And when America votes though, America will be heard.
He said: “When America is heard, the message is going to be out loud and clear. It is time for Donald Trump to pack his bags and go home. Go home”
Biden said: “Look, we are done with the chaos. We are done with racism. We are done with the tweets, the anger, the hate, the irresponsibility. But we have got a lot of work to do, folks. If I am elected president, we are going to act. On day one, we are going to act to get COVID under control.”
He also alleged that Trump has done more to harm black America than any president in modern history.
Biden said: “This is the same man who started the birther movement against my buddy, Barack Obama. This is the man who when the first black woman running for vice president he looks at her and he calls her monster.”
