The gloves are off. Kamalas (the K-Bomb) speech was the best I have ever seen her give and Biden is blistering TFGs butt.
He will not say his name but still dropped this Psaki Bomb, "Not only a former President but a defeated former President.
"I did not ask for this fight but I will stand in this breech and defend this nation."

President Biden was amazing today

This wasn't an instance in which Biden made a couple of oblique references; this was an unreserved indictment for a national audience.
"We must be absolutely clear about what is true and what is a lie, and here is the truth: The former president of the United States of America has created and spread a web of lies about the 2020 election," Biden said. "He's done so because he values power over principle, because he sees his own interests as more important than his country's interests and America's interests, and because his bruised ego matters more to him than our democracy or our Constitution.....
"He's not just a former president. He's a defeated former president defeated by a margin of over 7 million of your votes in a full and free and fair election.....
"Just think about this: The former president and his supporters have never been able to explain how they accept as accurate the other election results that took place on November 3rd the elections for governor, United States Senate, the House of Representatives elections in which they closed the gap in the House. They challenge none of that. The President's name was first, then we went down the line governors, senators, House of Representatives. Somehow, those results were accurate on the same ballot, but the presidential race was flawed? And on the same ballot, the same day, cast by the same voters. The only difference: The former President didn't lose those races; he just lost the one that was his own."
