We fact-checked Biden’s speech last week about democracy. His comments about a threat to same-sex marriage were speculative, but he was on firmer ground about efforts by politicians and voters who deny the 2020 election.
In a prime-time speech in front of Philadelphia’s Independence Hall, President Joe Biden called on Americans to "stop the assault on American democracy" by Republicans who deny the results of the 2020 election.
"Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic," Biden said Sept. 1. He cautioned, however, that not all Republicans embrace Trump’s MAGA movement and "extreme ideology."The White House did not immediately respond to PolitiFact when we asked how they define a "MAGA Republican.
"While the threat to American democracy is real, I want to say as clearly as we can: We are not powerless in the face of these threats," Biden said in the speech. "We are not bystanders in this ongoing attack on democracy.""MAGA Republicans … refuse to accept the results of a free election.
These candidates have also proposed eliminating early voting; wiping out existing voter registration lists; and getting rid of electronic voting machines.analysis found that of the country’s 10 competitive secretary of state races this year, a majority — six — feature a Republican nominee who has echoed Trump’s election denial assertions, including the nominees in such battleground states as Arizona, Nevada, and Michigan.
