In Detroit, Joe Biden Vows To Defy Skeptics And Defeat Trump

The president lays out his agenda and attacks the right-wing's Project 2025 in a fiery swing-state speech as more Democratic leaders push him to exit the race.
DETROIT ― An energetic, fast-talking President Joe Biden rallied supporters here Friday night with sharp attacks on his rival, Donald Trump, and a vision for the second term he remains intent on pursuing.
“There’s a lot of speculation lately, What’s Joe Biden going to do?” Biden said, kicking off a half-hour address to a crowd of more than 2,000 supporters inside a high school gymnasium. “I’m running, and we’re going to win.”
Biden’s speech included an accounting of his legislative accomplishments and their effects on Michigan, a key swing state, including green energy investments that are financing new electric vehicle factories and Medicare reforms that are reducing the cost of prescription drugs for seniors and people with disabilities.
But the heart of Biden’s speech was a lengthy, detailed attack on what Trump did when he was in the White House before ― and what he could do if he gets back in next year.
Biden singled out the provisions of “Project 2025,” a right-wing agenda published by the conservative Heritage Foundation that envisions a second Trump term dramatically expanding the powers of the presidency, downsizing the welfare state and rolling back reproductive rights. Its authors include prominent former and current Trump advisers, though Trump has recently tried to distance himself from the document.
