‘HATE, RACISM, DIVISION’

Biden: Trump Has More in Common With George Wallace Than George Washington

The frontrunner to face off against Trump in 2020 is expected to heavily criticize the president’s rhetoric following two mass shootings.

Joe Biden will launch an attack on President Trump in a speech Wednesday afternoon in which he'll directly accuse Trump of “fanning the flames of white supremacy” in America. The frontrunner to be Trump's Democratic opponent in 2020 will tell a crowd in Iowa that Trump has “more in common with George Wallace than George Washington.” The speech will come after a weekend of bloodshed in the U.S. which saw two mass shootings in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio. According to Axios, Biden will say: “How far is it from Trump's saying this ‘is an invasion’ to the shooter in El Paso declaring ’his attack is a response to the Hispanic invasion of Texas?’ Not far at all.” He'll also tell the crowd: “We have a president with a toxic tongue who has publicly and unapologetically embraced a political strategy of hate, racism, and division.”
