Biden says Trump will launch ‘assault on democracy’ if re-electedJoe Biden has warned that Donald Trump plans to launch an “assault on democracy” if returned to the White House.
“Trump’s assault on democracy isn’t just part of his past. It’s what he’s promising for the future. He’s been straightforward. He’s not hiding the ball,” the president said.
“His first rally for the 2024 campaign opened with a choir of January 6 insurrectionists singing from prison on cellphone, while images of the January 6 riot playing on the big screen behind him,” Biden continued. “This is like something out of a fairy tale.”
He continued: “Trump began his 2024 campaign by glorifying the failed violent insurrection … on our Capitol. The guy who claims law and order stands for lawlessness and disorder. Trump’s not concerned about your future, I promise you. Trump is now promising a full scale campaign of revenge and retribution, his words, for some years to come.”
