Joseph Biden actually said...

"The most important thing the president did in my mind today was that reassuring tone that only Joe Biden can do that someone is protecting your interests."

"A distinct minority of Americans supported by a distinct minority of elected officials are keeping us from turning the corner."

"President Biden understands that his fundamental responsibility is, protect Americans' lives. That's what he's doing."

"My message to unvaccinated Americans is this. What more is there to wait for?"
