Biden Calls for Unity After Blaming Trump for Killing Over 200,000 Americans
He should be naming Pfizer’s vaccine after President Trump himself.

“If the president had done his job,†said Joe Biden at a CNN town hall in Moosic, Pennsylvania, on September 17, “all the people would still be alive. All the people. I’m not making this up. Just look at the data. Look at the data.â€
Had Pfizer made its announcement a week earlier, does anyone doubt that Drudge and CNN and the AP and the entirety of the anti-Trump media wouldn’t have ignored or thrown cold water on it?
Every person who died from COVID-19 was Donald Trump’s fault. So said Joe.
CNN was mum in response to this cruel charge, not daring to challenge this viciously handy campaign narrative weaponized by its candidate. Biden’s shot was shameless, so much so that even PolitiFact rushed to Trump’s defense.
But that hardly stopped liberals. Four days later, several Democrats gathered outside the White House hoisting a neon sign that glowed, “Trump lied, 200,000 died.†The sign was paid for by the Democrat National Committee.
Kamala Harris jumped in on the action. “Donald Trump doesn’t think about what’s best for America,†she fumed in Philadelphia the night before the election. “He only thinks about what is best for himself. And as a result, we have lost 230,000 lives to COVID. So many people forced to die alone because of the nature of this virus … 230,000 Americans. The last time we experienced loss like this was World War II.â€
Biden–Harris pounded this drum throughout the campaign. Joe took it into the presidential debate, regaling national audiences with this egregious charge slung at a president who spent nearly every day since February grappling with this contagion.
