By now you know former Vice President Joe Biden has officially entered the 2020 race for the White House. During a video announcement, Biden declared President Trump the biggest threat America has ever seen, which is totally ridiculous.
"I knew the threat to this nation was unlike any I had seen in my lifetime," Biden said about Charlottesville and the president's reaction to it. "I believe history will look back on four years of this president and all he embraces as an abhorrent moment in time."
The core values of this nation… our standing in the world… our very democracy...everything that has made America -- America --is at stake. That’s why today I’m announcing my candidacy for President of the United States. #Joe2020 https://t.co/jzaQbyTEz3

-Pearl Harbor was attacked in 1941
-Korean War 1950-1953
