Trump mocks Biden’s record, says ex-VP has spent career on ‘wrong side of history’
President Trump spent a large portion of his Republican-nomination acceptance speech Thursday night slamming Democratic opponent Joe Biden’s record in the Senate and as vice president.
“Biden’s record is a shameful roll call of the most catastrophic betrayals and blunders in our lifetime,” Trump said outside the White House, during the final night of this week’s four-night Republican Convention. “He has spent his entire career on the wrong side of history.”
Trump highlighted that Biden supported the much-maligned NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) in the 1990s as well as China’s entry into the World Trade Organization.
“After those Biden calamities, the United States lost 1 in 4 manufacturing jobs,” the president claimed.
Trump also addressed Biden’s past support for granting former President George W. Bush the authority to use force in Iraq after the White House claimed the Middle Eastern nation had the potential to develop weapons of mass destruction.
