Narrator: On January 6th, Donald Trump set this country on fire.
reporter: 140 officers were injured. The siege lasted seven hours.
Narrator: It is fanning the flames of division and hatred. Now he is pouring gasoline.
Trump: “They were incredibly patriotic.”
Narrator: I pledge to forgive the extremists who tried to overthrow our government.
erase:“We will forgive them.”
Narrator:Â Encourage them to try again. There is nothing more sacred than our democracy. But Donald Trump is ready to set everything on fire.
President Biden:Â My name is Joe Biden and I approve of this message.
It's a message that will leave a lasting impression on voters in swing states for the remainder of the presidential campaign. Donald Trump and his Republican Party continue to try to rewrite the history of the 1/6 attacks. They know how politically damaging 1/6 is for Trump.
The Biden campaign's goal is to remind as many swing state voters as possible that Trump is a threat to democracy, but Biden doesn't need to convince the 10% of undecided voters. Biden only needs to move a few percentage points in his column, and if he does, he should win enough swing states to become a second-term president.
