V.P. Joe Biden campaigned in Cleveland, Ohio on the eve of Election Day. Click here to see the C-Span coverage of Joe Biden’s closing argument to Ohio and America.
Below are some quotes from Joe Biden’s speach:
“My message is simple. The power to change the country is in your hands.”
“It’s time for Donald Trump to pack his bags and go home. We’re done. We’re done with chaos, we’re done with the tweets, the anger, the hate, the failure, the irresponsibility.”
“Last night Trump said he was going to fire Dr. Fauci. Isn’t that wonderful. I got a better idea, elect me and I’m going to hire Dr. Fauci. And we’re going to fire Donald Trump.”
“The first step to beating the virus is beating Donald Trump.”
“Remember the lies he (Trump) told all the workers. He told the families of the GM plant in Lordstown, he said quote, ‘don’t move, don’t sell your house.’ But then the plant shut down.”
“What about his threat and his grudge against Good Year?” “What about his broaken promise to protect pensions for workers.”
“He stopped the overtime for millions of American workers, over $1,200,000 for American workers, that President (Obama) and I, with the help of your delegation, put in place.”
“Let’s not forget how Donald Trump is weak and chaotic with China on trade. Farm bankruptcies are way up, exports are way down. Agricultural exports to China during the Trump years have been 40% lower than they were during were the were in our second term.”
“And he even says, because of his bailout to the farmers, that’s your tax dollars by the way, quote; ‘Our farmers are doing better now than when they actually had a farm.’ Can you believe that? Who does this guy think he is?”
“My policies are going to hold China accountable. I’ll end the Trump tax loopholes that incentivise companies to ship jobs overseas. I’ll add a 10% surcharge on companies that do ship jobs overseas. But for companies that bring jobs back home I’ll offer a 10% tax credit. No government contracts will be given to a company that doesn’t have all their products made in America.”
“I grew up with guys like Donald Trump. I grew up in neighborhoods like many of you did, where most people didn’t have a college education. But we had guys like Trump who we used to play ball against in Scranton and Claymont. Because they had more money than we did they kind of looked down their nose on us. I gotta admit to you, I got a chip on my shoulder.”
“I read that if I get elected, I’ll be the first President who didn’t have an Ivy League degree in a long time. Well let me tell you something, somehow this kind of meant I didn’t belong because I went to a State University. But let me tell you what, it’s about time that a guy from a State University graduated into the White House. Because if I’m there, you’re going to be there too.”
“It’s long past time, we started rewarding work, not wealth in this country.”
“Why should you pay more taxes than Donald Trump for God’s sake?”
“My health care plan will cost more money, but guess how I’m going to pay for it? Trumps going to start paying some taxes.”
“We’re going to protect Social Security and we’re going to have a situation where we have a majority in the United Staes Senate.”
“Six Generals who worked in the White House with the President and have since left, said he is unfit to be commander in chief.” “They endorsed me!”
“Ohio, in 2008 and 2012 you placed your trust in me and Barack. In 2020 I’m asking you to trust me again. There will be no red states and blue states, just the United States.”
“Ladies and gentlemen, this is the United Staes of America, there’s not a damn thing we can’t do. Nothing.”
So lets get up and do it.”
