Trump to Skewer Biden In Convention Speech

August 27, 2020 · 12:38 pm ET · Leave a Comment

“President Trump will unload on Joe Biden in a blistering convention speech Thursday night,” Politico reports.

From the prepared remarks: “At no time before have voters faced a clearer choice between two parties, two visions, two philosophies, or two agendas. We have spent the last four years reversing the damage Joe Biden inflicted over the last 47 years. At the Democrat convention, you barely heard a word about their agenda. But that’s not because they don’t have one. It’s because their agenda is the most extreme set of proposals ever put forward by a major party nominee.”

Not mentioned: The Republican convention didn’t even adopt a platform.
