What a contrast! Biden, an honorable elder statesman, withdraws from the presidential race for the good of his party and our country. Trump, a self-serving, toddler-politician, lies, threatens, and incites violence to cling to the presidency like a barnacle; and drags his party and our country toward a dark future of authoritarianism.
