he mentioned the president by name to turn the country apart. publicly and unapologetically embraced a political strategy of hate, racism and division. this is white supremacy. donald trump is an accidental threat. reporter: biden blasted the president for his attacks on the press, the courts and congress. the former vp has multiple campaign stops across the hawkeye state. we will see if he repeats the same message we heard tonight. shannon: the rnc says donald trump raised $2 million more than expected in the hamptons today as donors hosting a fundraiser are facing unprecedented levels of criticism and calls to boycott. they are not the only ones. rhetoric is ramping up against regular trump supporters, kristin fisher at the white house with the latest.
