President Joe Biden said he was being unfairly targeted for his verbal miscues and vowed to “shine a spotlight” on Republican Donald Trump and his agenda, as the Democrat looked to pivot away from a debate performance that badly damaged his campaign.

Biden delivered a refreshed stump speech that included an outline of his planned first 100 days in a second term and some of the bluntest attacks on Trump’s legal troubles to date to a boisterous crowd that met him with a chant of “Don’t you quit!” He reiterated his intention to stay in the race.
Biden went after the “Project 2025” blueprint put forward by Trump backers that calls for mass deportations, socially conservative policies, slashing federal agencies and politicising the civil service. Biden, 81, accused the news media of covering concerns about his age at the expense of Trump’s plans, and of ignoring the former president’s flubs.
The president cast Trump as a “loser” who sought to overturn his 2020 election loss and wants to act as a dictator in a second term, vowing that would only happen “over my dead body.”
Still, the president felt compelled to allay voter concerns about his fitness for office, amid growing calls from fellow Democrats to exit the race.
