Psaki said people remained silent when Donald Trump was president as she defended Biden's latest speech.
Psaki was asked for comment after Romney accused the president of"going down the same tragic road taken by President Trump" on Tuesday."He also accused a number of my good and principled colleagues in the Senate of having sinister, even racist inclination. He charged that voting against his bill allies us with Bull Connor, George Wallace and Jefferson Davis. So much for unifying the country and working across the aisle.
She added:"True statements, which is what the president made yesterday, about the effects of a coordinated nationwide effort to undermine the constitutional right to vote."Which is hilarious on many levels, given how many people sat silently over the last four years for the former president. "Twelve months ago this President said disagreement must not lead to disunion," McConnell said to the Senate on Wednesday.
