On Thursday, I spent 90 minutes debating on a stage with a guy who has all the morals of an alley cat. I mean, did you see Donald Trump?
He must have set a new record for the number of lies ever told in a single debate.
He lied about what a great economy he created, when we all remember the pandemic.
He lied about how great he was for veterans, when we can recall how he called veterans who had given their lives for this country “suckers” and “losers.”
And he even lied about how he had nothing to do with January 6th.
But we all saw it with our own eyes. We saw the mob attack the Capitol. We saw the police being attacked. The Capitol ransacked.
Folks, for all of Trump’s lies on Thursday, we did learn some important truths.
We learned he is still proud of being the person who killed Roe v. Wade.
We learned that he wants another giant tax cut for the very wealthy and biggest corporations.
And that he’ll cut your Medicare, your Social Security, and cut your health care to pay for it.
Most dangerously -- though -- we learned again that Donald Trump will not respect the outcome of this year’s election.
Donald Trump showed us who he is on Thursday. We have to believe him.
I know you understand there is too much at stake to leave this election up to chance, so I have to ask: Will you make your first $25 contribution to Kamala’s and my campaign today? It's going to take a heck of a lot of resources to defeat Trump again. We need you by our side.

I know I’m not a young man. I don’t walk as easily as I used to. I don’t speak as smoothly as I used to. I don’t debate as well as I used to.
I also know how to tell the truth. I know right from wrong. I know how to do this job. I know how to get things done.
And I know -- like millions of Americans know -- when you get knocked down, you get back up.
I would not be running again if I didn’t believe with all my heart and soul that I can do this job. Because quite frankly the stakes are too high.
Donald Trump poses the gravest threat to our democracy I’ve ever seen in my lifetime.
He will destroy our democracy. I will defend it. So, are you with me?
Hundreds of thousands of donors have chipped in since our debate, but they are counting on more folks like you to join this effort to ensure we have the resources to win in November. Will you make your first $25 donation today?
Donald Trump and I will meet on the debate stage again in September. Until then, I’ll never stop fighting for families like yours just as I have every day of my career.
I hope you’ll keep the faith and join me out on the stump.
See you out there,
Joe
P.S. My team tells me that we had the best day of fundraising on Thursday. I couldn’t be more grateful for the folks who have pitched in what they can so far. We’re counting on even more donations from folks in Briarwood to come in today. If you can spare $5, $10, or even $25 -- pitch in now. It will make a difference. My word as a Biden.
