In a speech, Biden will directly address the former president’s role in the attack and his attempts since to distract from or downplay events, the White House said.
Biden has been “clear-eyed” about the “threat the former president represents to our democracy,” the White House press secretary, Jen Psaki, said in a briefing yesterday. Biden has repeatedly stated that Trump “abused his office, undermined the constitution and ignored his oath to the American people in an effort to amass more power for himself and his allies,” Psaki said.
“President Biden will lay out the significance of what happened at the Capitol and the singular responsibility President Trump has for the chaos and the carnage that we saw,” she added. “He will forcibly push back on the lies spread by the former president in an attempt to mislead the American people and his own supporters, as well as distract from his role in what happened.”
