Biden Mocks Larry Elder As ‘Trump Clone,’ Says ‘Trump Republicans Trying To Block Us From Beating This Pandemic’

Speaking at a rally on Monday night in Long Beach, California, for embattled California Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom, who faces a recall election on Tuesday, President Biden attacked Larry Elder, the leading GOP candidate to replace Newsom if he is recalled, calling Elder a “Trump clone.” He also accused “Trump Republicans” of blocking Democrats from “beating this pandemic.”

Biden started by bragging about Newsom, saying, “The reason I’m here and you all are here is to thank and support our friend Governor Gavin Newsom, one of the best governors in the country. California, I’m not sure if you know it, but if you didn’t know it, you should: the eyes of the nation, this is not hyperbole, the eyes of the nation are on California because the decision you are about to make isn’t just going to have a huge impact on California, it is gonna reverberate around the nation and quite frankly, not a joke, around the world.”
