Biden’s Second Political Awakening
During Trump’s first presidency, Biden remained politically active in his opposition to the then-president. He was especially motivated by the Unite the Right Rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, where participants carried the Nazi flag and were convicted of violent crimes.
Politically charged, Biden officially announced his candidacy for President on April 25, 2019, and focused his messaging on unity and patriotism. (Photo: Consolidated News Pictures, Editorial Use)
