Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden insists President Donald Trump has surrendered in the United States’ fight against the coronavirus.
Biden appeared on MSNBC for an interview with Joy Reid on Monday where he was asked about Trump’s previous remarks during his Fox News interview on Sunday.
At the time, Trump said, “No country has ever done what we’ve done, in terms of testing.”
Biden offered his take on Trump’s remarks and handling of the pandemic, criticizing the president with his own words. In turn, Biden said, “I think he’s right, no country has ever done what done — walk away.”
According to Biden, there is “no leadership” in the current administration and Trump has “raised the white flag” in surrender to the coronavirus.
“He raised the white flag. He has no idea what to do. It’s zero. It’s only one thing he has in mind — how does he win reelection?” Biden said. “And it doesn’t matter how many people get COVID and or die from COVID because he fears that if the economy is strapped as badly as it is today that, in fact, he is going to be in trouble.”

Biden continued, “That’s what this is all about. I’ve never seen a president who has been so self-serving in the conduct of the office.”
The former vice president went on to address the Trump administration’s ongoing attacks on former President Barack Obama’s administration throughout the pandemic.
