President Donald Trump’s labeling of Joe Biden’s agenda as “made in China” has provoked a salvo of disparaging responses.
During last night’s Republican National Convention, Trump said no one will be safe under a Biden presidency.
“Joe Biden’s agenda is ‘made in China.’ My agenda is ‘made in the USA’. Joe Biden is not a saviour of America’s soul, he is a destroyer of America’s jobs.”
In a series of tweets on Friday, Biden condemned the President for his comments.
He suggested that Trump’s speech while receiving his party’s nomination was empty.
The former Vice President insisted that statistics oppose Trump’s re-election ambition.
Biden mocked his rival on job claims, adding that the people cannot endure another four years of a Republican administration.
He said: “When Donald Trump says tonight you won’t be safe in Joe Biden’s America, look around and ask yourself: How safe do you feel in Donald Trump’s America?
“180,000 lives lost; Nearly 6 million confirmed cases of COVID-19; Over 25 million Americans out of work; Countless small businesses on the brink of closing. That’s Donald Trump’s America. We’re living it every day. We can’t take four more years.
“When President Trump took office, he inherited a growing economy from the Obama-Biden administration. And just like everything else, he’s inherited in his life, he squandered it.
“Donald Trump calls himself a wartime president. But now, instead of leading the charge to defeat this virus, he’s waved the white flag. He abandoned the American people when we needed him most.
“From the moment COVID-19 emerged, President Trump downplayed the threat it posed, refused to listen to the experts, and failed to take action to contain its spread. Now, we’re paying the price.
“Donald Trump promised to be the greatest jobs president God ever created. Instead, tens of millions of Americans are out of work, and we’re facing the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. #PromisesBroken.”
Trump, 74, and Biden, 77, will slug it out at the polls on November 3.
