Biden plagiarizes Trump COVID strategy, says pandemic is states' responsibility

As a candidate, Joe Biden was extremely critical of President Donald Trump’s response to the pandemic. His campaign criticisms include saying he should be disqualified from running for reelection for the number of deaths that happened while Trump was in office. However, as president, Biden has sung a different tune. In fact, he has repeated Trump’s claim that COVID response must be handled at the state level. By the way, this is a direct contradiction of the claims made by candidate Biden.

“Look, there is no federal solution,” Biden said on Monday. “This gets solved state level.”
