During a campaign speech in Pennsylvania, Joe Biden accused Donald Trump of using “Nazi Germany” rhetoric and being “willing to sacrifice American democracy.”
When US President Joe Biden traveled to Pennsylvania for a campaign speech, he accused Donald Trump of using “Nazi Germany” rhetoric.
“He talks about poisoning the blood of Americans, using exactly the same language that was used in Nazi Germany,” the Democratic president said.
He also accuses him of being “willing to sacrifice American democracy.”
“Donald Trump's campaign is obsessed with the past, not the future. He is willing to sacrifice our democracy to gain power,” criticized the Democratic president, who wants to give momentum to his 2024 election campaign, with a view to the attack on the Capitol that took place three years ago.
“Tolerates political violence”
Donald Trump tolerates “political violence,” just like his supporters, which Joe Biden also denounced on Friday.
“Trump and his MAGA supporters (“Make America Great Again,” the Republican billionaire’s flagship slogan) not only tolerate political violence, they laugh at it,” castigated the 81-year-old Democrat.
The attack on the Capitol remains controversial in the United States: A quarter of Americans believe, without evidence, that the FBI was behind it, according to a Washington Post and University of Maryland poll released this week.
After Pennsylvania, the American president will visit a church in South Carolina this Monday, where a white supremacist shot nine African Americans in 2015.
