Speaking at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago on Monday, President Joe Biden criticized former President Donald Trump’s rhetoric about the United States being a “failing nation.”
“He says we’re losing. He’s the loser. He’s dead wrong,” said Biden, who went on to tout America’s status as a leading nation in the world and a decrease in murder and violent crime rates since Trump left office.
“Crime will keep coming down when we put a prosecutor in the Oval Office instead of a convicted felon,” Biden said.
