Joe Biden Cites Charlottesville in Election Day Speech in Scranton

Joel B. Pollak 3 Nov 2020

Former Vice President Joe Biden referred to the Charlottesville riots in August 2017 one last time on Election Day, as he addressed a small group of activists at a “get-out-the vote” event in his childhood hometown of Scranton, Pennsylvania.

Biden launched his campaign in April 2019 by claiming that he had been inspired to run by the riots, in which a non-violent protest against the removal of a Confederate statue was hijacked by neo-Nazis and white supremacists. There were peaceful protests both for and against the statue (and against racism), but there were also violent clashes between far-right extremists and far-left extremists. One neo-Nazis murdered a peaceful protester named Heather Heyer when he drove into a procession.

Speaking through a bullhorn, and his signature mask, Biden said that “when saw those folks come out of those fields down in Charlottesville, carrying those torches … that’s when I decided I had to run.”

Biden did not specifically repeat the claim he made throughout his campaign until the last few weeks, which is that President Donald Trump had called the right-wing extremists “very fine people.” In fact, Trump had said the neo-Nazis and the white supremacists should be “condemned totally.”

The former Vice President’s lie became known as the Charlottesville “very fine people” hoax. He appeared to drop it from his campaign stump speech after Vice President Mike Pence debunked it on live television during the vice-presidential debate against Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA), though Harris continued to use it right up through the end of the campaign.

Campaigning 'on election day' is a very good indicator for Trump.
It shows that Biden's team is approaching desperation.
It they really believed the fake "polls", they would follow Hillary's lead and start popping champagne at noon.
His team is getting leaked information from the early votes. They know they are losing.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

Video: Joe Biden’s Show During His Final “Rally” – He Was Struggling To Turn On His Megaphone

The stops on Tuesday make the third straight day that Mr. Biden has held events in Pennsylvania. He also plans to stop in Philadelphia and is to end his campaigning on Tuesday evening with a speech in Wilmington, Del., with his wife, Jill, his running mate, Senator Kamala Harris, and Ms. Harris’s husband, Doug Emhoff.

His rally was weak as always with only dozens of people who decided to listen to “Sleepy Joe.”

But the weird part of this so-called rally came when Joe Biden needed to turn on the megaphone, the whole situation was caught on video and Joe was struggling to turn on his megaphone.
