ARLINGTON â President Joe Biden urged Virginians to elect former Gov. Terry McAuliffe a second time ânot just for Virginia, but for the countryâ in a speech here on Friday that took direct aim at former President Donald Trump.
Biden drew a direct connection between Trump and Republican gubernatorial nominee Glenn Youngkin in an off-year election that he called âa big dealâ for the rest of the country.
âI ran against Donald Trump and so is Terry,â he said. âI whipped Donald Trump in Virginia and so will Terry.â
Biden, in his first political campaign trip of his administration, delivered a 30-minute speech to 3,000 Democrats gathered outside the community center at Lubber Run Park.
