President Biden stated on Sunday that his goal is to “unite America again” during a speech at Mt. Airy Church of God in Christ in northwest Philadelphia.
It has been noted that Mr. Biden’s remarks came during the first of two stops of the day in Pennsylvania, a critical swing state. After speaking in Philadelphia, the president and first lady Jill Biden are headed to Harrisburg for an event at a local union hall.
“I’ve been doing this a long time, and I honest to God have never been more optimistic about America’s future.. if we stick together,” the president said to the nearly 300 congregants in attendance. “We have to bring dignity and hope back in America.”
Biden didn’t directly address the critical phase of his campaign that he is entering following a shaky debate performance that has led to a handful of Democratic lawmakers to call for him to step aside. However, he stated that he had been “called according to [God’s] purpose,” that “we’re all called to be doers,” and “I think we just have to work together.”
Biden did joke about his age and stated that although he may look like he’s “40 years old,” he’s “been around a long time.”
“The bishop and I were talking about that — it’s heck turning 40,” Mr. Biden said.
According to CBS News reporters inside the church, the crowd started chanting “four more years” once Mr. Biden concluded his speech and returned to his seat on the stage.
Biden and first lady Jill Biden arrived in Philadelphia around 10 a.m. ET, where they were met at the airport by Mayor Cherelle Parker and Sens. Bob Casey and John Fetterman of Pennsylvania, both Democrats. According to the Biden campaign, the president also plans to meet with Gov. Josh Shapiro, Lt. Gov. Austin Davis and others throughout the day.
