NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- Joe Biden's campaign released a statement following Tuesday night's presidential debate -- and not surprisingly, it didn't mince words about the former vice president's opponent, saying President Trump "offered nothing but interruptions and lies."
"Americans saw only one leader on stage tonight -- and one liar," the campaign said.
It continued, "During this moment of national crisis, the American people have been crying out for real leadership. Tonight, Joe Biden showed them that there’s a path out of the darkness. While Trump offered nothing but interruptions and lies, Biden took the opportunity to lay out his plans to move this country out of the COVID crisis that Trump has let spin out of control. Biden spoke directly to the American people about the issues keeping them up at night: the empty chairs at kitchen tables from loved ones lost to COVID-19, and families struggling to get by because of jobs moved overseas under Trump’s watch."
The campaign singled-out Trump for his demeanor, saying, he was "desperate, weak, and angry. He’s losing the race, and tonight, he lost his temper."
It also took aim at Trump's refusal to outright condemn white supremacist groups. "Once again, Trump had multiple chances to condemn white supremacy," the campaign said. "And, once again, he refused. Trump came into the debate trailing in this race -- due to his failed leadership and because of his policies to reward the super wealthy and corporations over working families and small businesses -- and tonight, Biden left him in the dust."
The statement concluded, "Tonight was Donald Trump’s shot to provide a coherent argument to the American people for his reelection, and he blew it. No wonder Trump ended the night looking tired and angry, and Joe Biden went out smiling."
