BIDEN CONFIRMS HIS WILL BE A HARRIS ADMINISTRATION

Joe Biden accidentally referred to his presidential ticket as the “Harris-Biden” campaign — after Kamala Harris similarly misspoke over the weekend.

The former vice president made the gaffe while speaking at a campaign event in Tampa, Fla., as he spoke of his goals to make it easier for military families to find careers.

“It makes it so much harder for military spouses to find good jobs and build their careers. That has to change,” Biden said.

“A Harris-Biden administration is going to relaunch that effort and keep pushing further to make it easier for military spouses and veterans to find meaningful careers to ensure teachers know how to support military children in their classrooms and to improve support for caregivers and survivors so much more than we do now.”

Harris on Saturday had mistakenly referred to the “Harris administration” while discussing economic plans during a virtual roundtable.

“A Harris administration, together with Joe Biden as the president of the United States,” she said before correcting her slip.

Biden’s trip to Florida featured two events focused on veterans and Latino voters in Tampa and Kissimmee, commemorating the start of Hispanic Heritage Month.

“Hispanic Heritage Month is an important reminder of just how much strength we draw as a nation from our immigrant roots and our values as a nation of immigrants. Unless you’re a Native American or your ancestors were enslaved and brought here by force beginning 400 years ago, we’ve all come from somewhere else,” Biden said in Kissimmee.

“And for most of us that journey began with a choice to try for something better here in the United States.”

Biden highlighted the Hispanic immigrants and Dreamers who are laboring as frontline workings during the coronavirus pandemic. He said his administration would invest in Hispanic communities in the states to safeguard the prosperity of the country.

He pledged toward investing economic mobility, improving educational systems, rooting out race-based disparities in health care and tackling gun violence.

He also promised to “build an immigration system that treats people with dignity and is true to American values.”

“How can we have a strong and thriving republic if we’re not doing more to fully deal-in Hispanic communities?” he asked.

Maybe I am just basically nasty and suspicious but I doubt those incidents were accidents.
