BBC: US President Joe Biden is looking forward to "getting back on the campaign trail next week", fortifying his commitment to stick in the race despite calls from top Democratic leaders to step aside as the party nominee.
The president referenced former President Donald Trump's Republican National Convention speech to say he will continue "exposing the threat" of the former president while "making the case" for his record.
"Donald Trump’s dark vision for the future is not who we are as Americans. Together, as a party and as a country, we can and will defeat him at the ballot box," he said in a statement.
“The stakes are high, and the choice is clear. Together, we will win," he added. » | Rachel Looker, BBC News, Washington | Friday, July 19, 2024
America! Stand by your President! The mere thought of a Trump presidency is too awful even to contemplate! Biden for a second term! The forces of evil must be vanquished. – © Mark Alexander
