DNC 2024: 'America, I Gave My Best to You,' Biden Gives Farewell Speech

DNC 2024: 'America, I Gave My Best to You,' Biden Gives Farewell Speech

The Spin

Pres. Biden's heartfelt speech was both the celebration of an illustrious career and a pivotal passing of the torch moment. While the political veteran's bittersweet exit from the 2024 presidential race was necessary for the future of the democracy, this does not mean that Biden's service to America has been ignored. It is now time for Harris to build on Biden's legacy and ensure that all that his administration has built is not lost under another Trump presidency.

Having already been publicly humiliated during Harris's donor-led coup, Democrats chose to condemn Biden to one last moment of indignity as the President was cut from prime time television. Biden's farewell speech to the American people was an insulting final chapter in the President's career, and yet another reminder of the smoke-filled rooms that hold true power within the Democratic Party.
