Biden Frames 2024 Campaign as a Battle for Democracy Beyond Political Rivalries
President Joe Biden is set to deliver a speech at Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, to emphasize the defense of democracy and mark the anniversary of the January 6 insurrection. Framing the upcoming 2024 election as a pivotal moment for the nation's democratic foundations, Biden will contrast his leadership with that of Donald Trump, drawing parallels to George Washington's commitment to liberty and his decision to relinquish power. The speech is part of a broader strategy to remind voters of the events of January 6 and to address other key issues such as voting access, abortion rights, and economic fairness. Biden's itinerary also includes a visit to Mother Emanuel AME Church in South Carolina, highlighting his outreach to Black voters and the importance of the state in the Democratic primaries.
