Biden: "We're At War With The Virus, Not With One Another"
United States President Donald Trump recently called into a Pennsylvania GOP event to rant about overturning the recent presidential election results and then invites lawmakers from the event to the White House Wednesday night. As Trump calls for overturning the election results, United States President-elect Joe Biden talks about a "grim season of division" giving way to unity.
Biden: We should "be thankful for democracy itself"; Trump: "We have to turn the election over." Biden: We have "fair and free elections"; Trump: "they cheated." Biden: "To love out neighbor as ourselves is a radical act."
Biden says that, "we're at war with the virus, not with one another." Biden addresses the lives that have been lost to coronavirus and says that he knows what it's like to have Thanksgiving with "the empty chair."
The United States now tops 2,000 coronavirus deaths so far today. Biden urges Americans to unite: "Every decision we make can save lives." There are 162,000 new coronavirus cases so far today in the United States and hospitalizations break records for 15 straight days. Also, unemployment claims jump and 79 million Americans are food insecure during the coronavirus pandemic.
