Biden jokes that Trump put bleach in his hair to fight covid-19
During a campaign event in Washington, President Joe Biden humorously commented on his opponent and predecessor, Donald Trump, suggesting that Trump must have put the bleach he recommended for injecting to combat covid-19 in his hair instead. Biden made the remark while addressing union members and joking about the former Republican president’s hair color.
Referring to the incident from four years ago when Trump proposed injecting bleach as a potential cure during the Covid-19 pandemic, Biden’s campaign utilized the anniversary to remind Americans of Trump’s controversial suggestion. “Don’t inject bleach. And don’t vote for the guy who told you to inject yourself with bleach,” Biden stated in a message on his social media account, sharing the moment when Trump spoke about it.
The North American Building Trades Unions (NABTU), a federation encompassing 14 unions with nearly three million members in the country, provided Biden with their support at the campaign event in Washington. However, the influential International Brotherhood of Teamsters, also affiliated with NABTU, has not yet decided whether to endorse Biden or Trump.
Throughout his presidency, Biden has placed significant emphasis on his relationship with unions, even participating in a picket line during an auto industry workers’ strike last year.
