Donald Trump called next November’s presidential election “the most important date in the history of our country.” On the economic question, “if I am not elected, it will be a butchery for the country,” he said during a meeting in Ohio.
Former President Donald Trump, Republican candidate in the American election in November, presented this election as a turning point in the history of the country, evoking a “butchery” for the United States economy if he does not was not elected against the Democratic incumbent Joe Biden. “November 5 will be the most important date in the history of our country,” Donald Trump declared during a meeting of his party on Saturday in Vandalia, Ohio (north), four days after making sure of the Republican nomination, as President Joe Biden did in the Democratic camp.
Describing his Republican primary victory as “the fastest ever,” he noted that it also meant a wait of more than seven months before the rematch of the 2020 election. “It’s an eternity when you have incompetent people at the head of the country and who are leading it to its downfall,” he said.
Criticizing what he described as Chinese plans to build cars in Mexico and sell them to Americans, he said he wanted to “impose a 100 percent tariff on every vehicle that leaves the factory.” “These cars will be unsaleable if I am elected,” he added, estimating Conversely that the threats weighing on the American automobile industry would be “the least of the worries” of the United States in the event of Joe Biden’s reappointment. “If I am not elected, it will be a butchery for the country,” said Donald Trump, seeming to evoke a deterioration of the economic situation in this hypothesis.
“He wants another January 6,” criticizes Joe Biden’s team
President Biden’s campaign team reacted to these ambiguous remarks widely commented on social networks with a press release calling Donald Trump a “loser” of the 2020 presidential election, who “redoubles his threats of political violence”. “He wants another January 6,” said Joe Biden’s team, referring to the attack on the Capitol by Donald Trump supporters in 2021, “but the Americans are going to inflict another electoral defeat on him in November because they continue to reject his extremism, his taste for violence, and his thirst for revenge.
Joe Biden then spoke directly during a dinner in Washington, during which he also warned of “an unprecedented moment in history”. “Freedom is under assault… The lies about the 2020 election, the plot to undermine it and join the January 6 insurrection pose the greatest threat to our democracy since the war of Secession,” he said. “In 2020, they failed, but (…) the threat remains,” he added.
The Democratic president also humorously brushed aside concerns about his age. “One of the candidates is too old and mentally unfit to be president,” he said. “The other one is me.” The advanced age of the two candidates for the November presidential election – 81 years for Joe Biden and 77 for Donald Trump – is a recurring subject of the campaign, which promises to be particularly acrimonious, with cross attacks on physical form and abilities. cognitive skills of the contenders for the White House.
