President Donald Trump formally accepted the Republican party's nomination for a second term Thursday night in an address from the White House that was, at times, upbeat and positive and many other times was foreboding and pessimistic.
Thursday in a scorching address from the White House in which he sought to defend his record on the pandemic while tearing down Democrat Joe Biden – sometimes inaccurately – as a “weak” instrument of his party’s left-wing.
In a blistering series of attacks, Trump accused Biden of being a"Trojan horse for socialism," and reiterated claims that Democrats, if brought to power, would"demolish the suburbs" and"wipe away your Second Amendment." "Joe Biden may claim he is an ally of the light," he said."But when it comes to his agenda, Biden wants to keep us completely in the dark."“Instead of a strategy to overcome the pandemic, or any concern for the unbearable suffering in our country right now as a result of his ongoing failures, what we heard was a delusional vision completely divorced from the crushing reality that ordinary Americans face," Biden campaign spokeswoman Kate Bedingfield said in a statement.
