Barack Obama said Wednesday that President Donald Trump had proven “incapable of taking work seriously” when he appeared in his first public rally for Joe Biden before the Nov. 3 election.
This is not a reality show. This is reality, “said former President Obama in Philadelphia, in the state of Pennsylvania, a battlefield.
“And the rest of us have had to live with the consequences of him showing that he is incapable of taking work seriously.”
He also said that democracy cannot work if “leaders lie every day.”
The former president of the United States made the remarks at a car rally in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, when he launched the Biden campaign in a bid to garner support for his former vice president among young Americans and black voters in the final leg of the White House race.
Biden’s campaign hopes that the star power of America’s first black president will help boost turnout among young voters and African Americans, who are key to Democratic hopes of regaining the White House.
At least 40 million Americans have already voted, according to the University of Florida’s US Elections Project, nearly 30 percent of the total turnout in 2016.
With less than two weeks to go to the election, Biden has a 7.9-point lead over Trump in an average of national polls, according to the RealClearPolitics website.
