Joe Biden accused President Donald Trump of abusing the powers of his office and ignoring everyone but his political base Monday in his first public rally as presidential candidate, arguing in the crucial battleground state of Pennsylvania that strengthening unions and promoting social and economic unity can restore Democrats to the White House.
The former vice president told hundreds of supporters and labour activists that Saturday's deadly shooting at a California synagogue proves a new that the country is "in a fight for its soul."
He called Trump "the only president who has decided not to represent the whole country. He has his base. We need a president who works for all Americans."
