Joseph Biden actually said...

"Political violence is never, ever acceptable in the United States political has never, never, never. It has no place in a democracy, none. We can't be pro-insurrectionist and pro-American."

"This is not rhetorical, academic or hypothetical. Whether democracy is still America's sacred cause is the most urgent question of our time. That's what the 2024 election is all about."

"This is an election about democracy and freedom, and that the choice is clear."

"The choice is clear. Donald Trump's campaign is about him, not America, not you. Democracy is on the ballot, your freedom is on the ballot."
