President Biden Thursday is delivering a speech on the 'soul of the nation,' in the wake of recent comments he made accusing Republicans of representing 'semi-fascism.'
President Biden Thursday evening cast Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans as a threat to the Constitution intent on"destroying American democracy."
Biden compared Trump to other autocrats in history who have subverted democracies."History shows us that blind loyalty to a single leader . . . is fatal to democracy," he said. "So tonight I have come here to the place where it all began to speak plainly to the nation about the threats we face. About the power we have in our own hands to meet those threats. And about the incredible future that lies in front of us if only we choose it," the prepared remarks state.
A senior White House official says that President Biden's Thursday speech will be"optimistic," on the future of the country, Fox News' Patrick Ward reports, but that the president will hammer those he sees as a threat to American democracy.
