President Joe Biden was welcomed with cheers as he introduced 2024 Democratic presidential nominee and Vice President Kamala Harris at a Labor Day campaign rally at the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local #5 training facility in Pittsburgh.
Their first appearance on the campaign trail together since Biden announced his withdrawal in July, the president focused his speech on his special bond with Harris, hailing his decision as nominee in 2020 to select her as his vice president as “the single best decision I made as president of the United States of America.”
He also spoke of the pitfalls of another Trump presidency, notably to labor unions. “Remember, Trump, for four years, promised every month, infrastructure week, for four years he promised that,” Biden said, Harris standing behind. “He didn’t build a damn thing. Nothing. I mean it, not nothing.”
