President Joe Biden delivered another campaign speech to union members on Wednesday, focusing his remarks before the North America’s Building Trades Unions annual conference on attacking his 2024 Republican opponent, former President Donald Trump.
Attendees at the conference booed loudly when a video comparing Trump and Biden played ahead of the president’s speech. Attendees chanted, “Lock him up,” when Trump was on screen before turning to “four more years” as Biden took the stage.

“Because of you, I’m standing here as president of the United States of America,” he declared. “In 2024, we’re going to make Donald Trump a loser again.”
The president reiterated comments he made not only last week in Scranton, Pennsylvania, but also throughout his entire reelection push, dovetailing on his and Trump’s differing sets of values.
“He learned the best way to get rich is inheriting,” Biden said of Trump. “He learned that paying taxes is something working people did, not him. He learned that telling people, ‘You’re fired,’ was something to laugh about. Not in my household. Not in my neighborhood.”
“I guess that’s how you look at the world from Mar-a-Lago, where Trump and his rich friends embrace the same failed trickle-down policies that have failed working-class families and union families over 40 years,” the president continued. “But if you grew up where we grew up, nobody had anything. Being told, ‘You’re fired,’ wasn’t entertainment. It was devastating. It was a nightmare.”
