If Trump wins the election, he “will use all of his power to systematically dismantle and destroy our democracy,” says Biden communications director.
Joe Biden is set to deliver a speech casting former President Donald Trump and his supporters as the top threats to “democracy” on the anniversary of the January 6 Capitol riot.
Biden will give the speech at Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, on Saturday to continue his campaign rhetoric that white supremacy and domestic terrorism pose the greatest dangers to America should Trump retake the White House in 2024.
From NBC News:
The speech is expected to be a key component of the campaign’s efforts to highlight the stakes of the presidential election, one that’s shaping up to be a rematch of the 2020 contest.
On a call with reporters announcing Saturday’s event, campaign officials used dire terms in warning against a potential Trump victory.
Communications director Michael Tyler said that if Trump wins in November, he “will use all of his power to systematically dismantle and destroy our democracy.”
Biden campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez also said, “Our message is clear, and it is simple: We are running a campaign like the fate of our democracy depends on it. Because it does.”
Quentin Fulks, a deputy campaign manager, reiterated that Biden will highlight the dangers of a Trump victory.
“There, the president will make the case directly that democracy and freedom — two powerful ideas that united the 13 colonies and that generations throughout our nation’s history have fought and died for a stone’s throw from where he’ll be Saturday — remains central to the fight we’re in today,” said Fulks.
For years Biden has painted Trump and his supporters as extremists who “threaten the very foundations of our Republic” and “fan the flames of political violence.”
At his last Jan. 6 anniversary speech, Biden said “our democracy was attacked” and that the Capitol riot he characterized as an “insurrection” was “fueled by lies about the 2020 election.”
And in his ominous “Blood Red” speech in Sept. 2022, Biden proclaimed that “MAGA Republicans…embrace anger. They thrive on chaos. They live not in the light of truth, but in the shadow of lies,” adding that they don’t “respect the Constitution.”

That’s an ironic accusation given the Biden regime has violated the First Amendment rights of millions of Americans using Big Tech to censor them, ignored Supreme Court rulings, weaponized the Department of Justice to persecute his top political opponent, bypassed Congress to deliver financial aid to Ukraine, and dissolved America’s borders.
Notably, the majority of Americans believed Biden’s Blood Red speech was designed to “incite conflict” in America and marked a “dangerous escalation in rhetoric,” according to a Trafalgar Group poll.
Biden’s upcoming speech comes amid Democrat efforts to remove Trump from ballots in Colorado, Maine, California, New York and more, claiming he’s disqualified from running for president because he “incited an insurrection” on January 6, 2021.
