New Biden ad: Threat (Every day he's president Donald Trump poses a threat to America and the world)






ABC News article about the ad:

'This is no time to take a risk': Biden ad leans into electability as caucuses approach

https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/time-risk-biden-ad-leans-electability-caucuses-approach/story?id=68495897


DES MOINES, IA -- With the Iowa Caucuses just 10 days away, Former Vice President Joe Biden is hitting the airwaves with a new campaign ad that claims he’s the safest choice when it comes to defeating President Donald Trump in November.

The campaign’s latest ad, obtained first by ABC News, focuses on a potential general election match-up between Trump and the former vice president, and makes the starkest argument to date about Biden’s electability.

“Every day he is president, Donald Trump poses a threat to America and the world. We have to beat him. Joe Biden is the strongest candidate to do it,” says the 30-second ad, touting Biden’s lead in polls both nationally and in important states likely needed to win the election in November.

“This is no time to take a risk. We need our strongest candidate. So let’s nominate the Democrat Trump fears the most. Vote Biden. Beat Trump,” the narration concludes.

But, since you mentioned 1st place in the RealClear Politics Average poll, surely you noticed the slopes of the curves showing Bernie SURGING & quickly closing the gap with Biden... if the trend continues or, indeed, ACCELERATES as many are predicting, Biden's done!! Say "hello" to President Sanders!!

The reason that Bernie is gaining nationally on Biden is because the Boundless Bernie Bashing Backlash is taking its toll... the more Bernie gets bashed, the more the working class people in this country come to his side and join The Revolution!! So keep it up, bash away... we got Bernie's back!!

Why is the Orange Buffoon demanding that Ukraine make up dirt on Biden? Because he is the one he fears the most. He might be a con man, but he is not a fool. He knows that Biden will win a GE because he can win the crucial states of Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. The Orange Buffoon barely won these states in 2016. We must get that man out of the WH. This is the ONLY thing that matters to me. I like the policies of some of the other candidates, but the truth is, in my opinion, promoting major "revolutionary changes", will not win over voters in the rust belt. We will be stuck with this corrupt administration for 4 more years. Our country may not survive that.
