Biden back on the campaign trail: 'I whipped Donald Trump in Virginia and so will Terry'
CNN
President Joe Biden made a forceful return to the campaign trail on Friday night in Virginia, stumping for gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe by linking the Democrat's opponent to the man Biden had defeated several months ago -- former President Donald Trump.
While Biden did not say Glenn Youngkin's name, he directly linked the Republican businessman-turned-politician to Trump, another businessman-turned-politician who lost Virginia handily in both 2016 and 2020. Biden echoed the argument that McAuliffe has made central to his own bid. "You got to elect him again, and I mean this, not just for Virginia, for the country. The country is looking, these off-year elections, the country's looking. This is a big deal," Biden said. "Terry and I share a lot in common. I ran against Donald Trump and so is Terry. And I whipped Donald Trump in Virginia and so will Terry."More Related News
