Biden, Trump each pitch existential fear of the alternative to voters

To listen to the two leading candidates for the White House tell it, there’s much more on the line in November’s election than control of the executive branch.

President Biden has warned democracy, truth and the character of the nation is at stake in 2024. He has told donors a victory this November could very well save American democracy, underscoring the grave threat he believes former President Trump poses to U.S. institutions.

Trump, for his part, has used dystopian language to describe a nation teetering on the edge of destruction if Biden wins reelection. At one recent rally in Sioux Center, Iowa, Trump said the country was “dying” and “a mess” and claimed if Biden remains in office, immigration will become such a problem that “we’re not going to have a country.”

Just the way it is written immediately tells you this is a Yahoo clickbait piece.

"To listen to the two leading candidates for the White House tell it" immediately tells you they are not going to present any facts or analysis, it's just to stir the pot.

Fact is - Trump is the only candidate in American history that was involved in an attempt to overthrow a valid election.
