Biden attacks Republicans again, labeling them as the ‘real problem’
President Biden Takes a Stand Against MAGA Republicans
President Joe Biden delivered a powerful speech at a reception for the Democratic National Committee (DNC) on Friday, where he took the opportunity to attack “MAGA Republicans” once again.
In his remarks, Biden said that MAGA Republicans are attempting to undo the progress that his administration has made, and that they are “trying to take us backwards.”
“MAGA Republicans are trying to take us backwards. But together, we’re not going to let them do it. Not an inch back. Instead, our agenda is going to continue to bring us forward and build on the progress we made. And we must finish this job,” the president said. “Let’s keep growing the economy from the middle out and the bottom up. Let’s protect a woman’s right to choose and codify Roe v. Wade. Let’s protect our children from gun violence by continuing to work to eliminate assault weapons. And let’s keep lowering the prescription drug cost not just for those on Medicare, but for all Americans.”
Biden also talked about what he had accomplished while he has been in office, which included signing the CHIPS and Science Act, the Inflation Reduction Act, the American Rescue Plan, and the bipartisan infrastructure and gun reform laws.
The president went on to highlight his Supreme Court appointee, Justice Kentanji Brown Jackson, as well as the “12 million brand-new jobs” that were created in two years. He touted the number of jobs created under his administration as “more than any president has created in a four-year term.”
Another claim by Biden on Friday is that the American freedoms and democracy are currently under attack by “MAGA Republicans.” He went on to say that those Republicans make up a total of 30% of the Republican party and added that they are the “real problem” and that “this is not your father’s Republican Party.”
Biden used the reception on Friday as a chance to campaign for his upcoming re-election and ask donors to remember their contributions in the 2020 election and said that he was “optimistic” he will win the re-election.
There’s a choice ahead of us. Will we continue to build a future full of opportunities for you and families like yours? Or will we turn the clock back?
Here’s the honest truth: I’m more optimistic than I’ve ever been. There is nothing beyond our capacity if we do it together.
