Joe Biden has endorsed Kamala Harris for President. Biden tweeted, “My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made. Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.”

Former President Donald Trump recently slammed Democrats and said that they portray him as a threat to free and fair elections and that he “took a bullet for democracy” while referencing the assassination attempt against him last week via Mediaite.
It has been noted that Trump addressed a crowd in Grand Rapids, Michigan, Saturday afternoon for his first rally since he was shot through the ear by a gunman’s bullet in Pennsylvania last week. In Michigan, Trump could be seen wearing a much smaller ear bandage than the one he showed off in Milwaukee at the GOP convention.
Trump had referenced the shooting at several points, even defending the media’s coverage of the horrific events at one point. He also referenced the controversial “Project 2025” from Heritage Foundation, and said that Democrats keep calling him an extremist.
“The other side is going around trying to make me sound extreme,” Trump told Michigan voters. “Like I’m an extremist. I’m not. I am a person with great common sense. I’m not an extremist at all.”
Trump stated that Project 2025 was written by the “radical right,” which he said was the polar opposite of the “radical left.”
Trump offered additional disclaimers and disavowed statements about it. He returned to the idea, which has been the dominant theme from his opponents since his first campaign, that he’s an extremist who opposes democracy.
“They keep saying, ‘He’s a threat to democracy.’ I’m saying, what the hell did I do for democracy? Last week I took a bullet for democracy.”
