Biden campaign slams Trump's Rose Garden event as "sad affair"

CNN cut away from the president’s remarks, with host Wolf Blitzer saying the speech was “deteriorating” into what he described as “a campaign-type speech.”

“Today’s statement that was ostensibly supposed to be about China, but there was one topic that President Trump couldn’t seem to get off his mind: Joe Biden, whose name the President invoked nearly 30 times,” the Biden campaign’s deputy campaign manager and communications director Kate Bedingfield said in a statement.
