President Joe Biden headlined the Democratic National Committee’s glamorous holiday party on Tuesday night, giving a speech in which he touted his administration’s agenda and railed against Republican objection to Democrats’ voting rights legislation.
He said the GOP was following Donald Trump ‘into the abyss’ by fueling baseless claims the 2020 election was rigged.
‘As Democrats, we stand for the people,’ his VP Kamala Harris said in her own speech. ‘And we will fight for the people.’
Hours after speaking to a 400-person audience full of top Democrats and DNC donors the president struck a more somber tone in a statement memorializing the 800,000 Americans who have died of COVID-19 so far.
He also expressed optimism for the upcoming 2022 midterm elections – despite his party’s underwhelming performance in this year’s races and his own sinking poll numbers.
Thank God Kamala Harris is redecorating her office! It’s not like she was supposed to be addressing the crisis at the U.S. border.
