Fresh off his defiant State of the Union address, President Joe Biden and his senior aides are beginning to barnstorm the country to aggressively sell his vision for a second term to voters. He's also warning of the Republican alternative.
AP Washington correspondent Sagar Meghani reports the Biden campaign is announcing a battleground state blitz as the president aims to sell the nation on his vision for a second term.“When you ride down the street and there’s a Trump banner with an F-U on it and a little 6-year-old kid putting up his middle finger,” Biden said. “Did you ever think you’d hear people talk the way they do? It demeans who we are. That’s not America.
That push will include buys during the NCAA basketball tournament, as Biden’s camp attempts to leverage high ratings, like it says it did when airing an ad promising to defend abortion rights during the recent Grammy Awards.to more than 350, while also opening more than 100 field offices.
She also noted that, after former U.N. ambassador Nikki Haley left the Republican presidential primary race, “instead of wrapping his arms around them — like we certainly have — Trump has really mocked her supporters.” Biden’s campaign said Thursday night’s speech showed that, rather than a contrast of age with the 77-year-old Trump, Biden is offering a stark policy choice with his predecessor.
Cabinet secretaries and senior White House officials are embarking on their own post-State of the Union travel blitz to amplify Biden’s message starting Friday and continuing throughout the coming weeks, hitting not only swing states but rural territory such as Missouri, Kentucky and Tennessee.
