Presumptive Democratic nominee will accuse Trump of being 'more interested in power than principle' in his response to George Floyd protests.
Joe Biden takes an opportunity to portray himself as a leader, stepping up events as protests nationwide appear to leave President Trump paralyzed.
“I promise you this. I won’t traffic in fear and division. I won’t fan the flames of hate,” he will say in his Tuesday speech, according to the excerpts. “I will seek to heal the racial wounds that have long plagued this country — not use them for political gain. I’ll do my job and take responsibility. I won’t blame others. I’ll never forget that the job isn’t about me.
He will say Floyd’s dying words, “I can’t breathe,” are emblematic of systemic racism that has been worsened by the health and economic crises.
