Obama Shades Trump And GOP In Biden Endorsement

TMZ reports:

Obama opened a video message with an uplifting sentiment about the fight against coronavirus and gave a thank you to those on the frontlines. He then transitioned to the political side … saying, “That’s why I’m so proud to endorse Joe Biden as President of the United States.”

Obama then goes in on Trump and Republicans, saying, “One thing everybody has learned by now, the Republicans running the White House and the U.S. Senate are not interested in progress, they’re interested in power.”

At one point he mentions the failure of the Trump administration in containing the coronavirus, saying Republicans ignored the science of pandemics just as they ignored the science of climate change, reminding everyone the importance of honesty and informativeness from a President.

Joe Biden will “surround himself with good people… who actually know how to run the government.”
