According to President Trump, Democrats painted an inaccurately dark picture of the U.S. during this year’s Democratic National Convention. During Friday’s 2020 Council for National Policy in Virginia, the president said his time in office has been the most successful in U.S. history.
He went on to tout his administration’s historic tax cuts and deregulation efforts, along with the American economy and way of life under his presidency. In contrast, he claimed Democrats want to quadruple taxes and regulations.
The president has suggested Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden and his leftist policies pose a threat to the country. He further asserted a Biden presidency would benefit China and violent anarchists across the country.
“No party can lead America that spends so much time tearing down America. But the biggest part of last night’s speech was what Biden didn’t talk about. He didn’t talk about law enforcement. He didn’t talk about bringing safety to Democrat run cities that are totally out of control and have no clue. China was never mentioned in any way, shape or form. China will own our country if he gets elected. They will own our country. Well, we’re not going to let that happened.” – Donald Trump, 45th President of the United States

The president also threw doubt on quick election results. He has said it could take “weeks, months or maybe never” if Democrats succeed with their universal mail-in voting push.
Vice President Mike Pence has also expressed that Biden will only make matters worse for the economy as it starts to recover from the pandemic. During a recent interview, Pence stressed the economy is on the ballot in the upcoming November elections.
Though the U.S. has lost 22 million jobs since the beginning of the pandemic, he reiterated 9 million Americans have already gone back to work because of the president’s policies.
The vice president claimed Biden could threaten this progress. He pointed out the Democrat candidate wants to significantly raise taxes and spend trillions on a “Green New Deal.”
“Joe Biden said last night the economy is not going to come back until the coronavirus is over. News flash to Joe Biden: the economy is coming back. The only real threat to the economy is a Joe Biden presidency.” – Mike Pence, Vice President of the United States

Going forward, Pence added the Trump campaign will be focusing their message on the economy. He has suggested this is why they will win another four years in the White House.
