Joe Biden

From the most unequal economic and job crisis in modern history, we can build a new American economy that works for all Americans. Our message everybody's struggling right now is this, help is on the way.

America voted Joe Biden. Then Joe Biden should be. But I think it all should be fair. I think it all should be fair.

The Biden administration is going to approach this economic crisis and should we see them as the right team to get the job done?

My administration across the board is going to look like America.

President-elect Biden's victory over President Trump was propelled by the largest voting bloc in America, women.

That's what we need in a -- in a leader, in any leader. And that's what we were going to get with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

This Thanksgiving, in anticipation of all the Thanksgivings to come, let's dream again. Let's commit ourselves to thinking not only of ourselves but of others as well.

The nation's capital right now, power is held by a very small number of people, Pelosi, McConnell, incoming President Joe Biden, and the President.

We're going to move ahead, whether Trump helps us or not, we're going to move ahead where the Republicans help us or not.

I know the country has grown weary of the fight. We need to remember we're at war with the virus, not with one another, not with each other. This is the moment where we need to steal our spines, redouble our efforts and recommit ourselves…

We fought nearly a year-long battle with a virus that has devastated this nation. It's divided us, angered us, set us against one another. I know the country's grown weary of the fight. But we need to remember, we're at war with the virus…

So Biden has it correct, you know. It's not a political thing. It's not a partisan thing. It's common sense.

Let's be thankful for democracy itself. In this last election, the one that just took place, we've seen record numbers of Americans exercise the most sacred right, that of the vote to register their will at the ballot box. You want to know…

Each of us has a responsibility in our own lives to do what we can do to slow the virus. Every decision we make matters. Every decision we make can save lives. None of these steps are asking people to take are political statements. Every…

My friend Joe Biden is bringing such dignity and such integrity even to this impossible transition, and it gives me hope.

For those who have lost a loved one, I know that this time of year can be especially difficult. Believe me. I know. I remember that first Thanksgiving, the empty chair, the silence. It takes your breath away.

This is not third Obama term, because there's -- we face a totally different world than we faced in the Obama-Biden Administration. The president, President Trump has changed the landscape. It's become America First, which has been spent…

Our democracy was tested this year. What we learned is this, the people of this nation are up to the task. In America, we have full and fair and free elections, and then, we honor the results.

It has divided us and angered us and set us against one another.

I hope that we're going to be able to have a united voice on the need to mask, socially distance, testing and tracing. The words of a president matter. And I think it's critically important, I think it's a patriotic responsibility to wear…

Yes. And we still have a lot more appointments to make. I want this country to be united. The purpose of our administration is, once again, reuniting. We can't keep this very long political dialogue going. It has to end.

America is back. We're at the head of the table once again. I have spoken with over 20 world leaders and they all are literally pleased and somewhat excited America is going to reassert its role in the world and be a coalition builder.

This is not a third Obama term because there's -- we face a totally different world than we faced in the Obama Biden administration. The President has changed the landscape. It's become America first, it's been America alone.

It's a slow start. But it started and there's too much left to go. So I'm feeling good about the ability to be able to get up to speed and I fully expect based on what I've heard so far. We'll get full cooperation each the agencies in…

That's a team that reflects the fact that America is back, ready to lead the world, not retreat from it. They'll tell me what I need to know not what I want to know. What I need to know.
