Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden tore into President Trump Thursday ahead of the president’s scheduled remarks accepting his party nomination on the last night of the Republican National Convention.
Amid some worries from Democrats that he hadn't been visible this week, Biden slammed Trump’s leadership and ridiculed Vice President Pence’s speech Wednesday night warning Americans “won’t be safe in Joe Biden’s America.â€
“His proof? The violence you’re seeing in Donald Trump’s America,†Biden said in a statement.
“Did Mike Pence forget Donald Trump is president? Is Donald Trump even aware he’s president?†Biden added. “These are not images from some imagined ‘Joe Biden’s America’ in the future. These are images from Donald Trump’s America today. The violence we’re witnessing is happening under Donald Trump. Not me. It’s getting worse, and we know why.â€
The remarks came after two cable news appearances by Biden and an address by Kamala Harris, the California senator and Biden's running mate.
