Biden pledged to give priority to American workers in the new election strategy and said that Trump's economic promise has failed.

Speaking at a campaign event in the battlefield state of Pennsylvania on July 9, former US Vice President Joe Biden, the Democratic candidate, presented an economic populist vision to restore and re-start.

Biden went on to criticize Trump's reaction to Covid-19, which made the economic crisis worse and more wrong when focusing on the stock market, while stating the slogan "Rebuild better" for the agenda.

Biden's "Buy US" message seems to originate from Trump, who ran for 2016 with the call "America First," and wrote on Twitter on his inauguration that "Buy America" and "Hire

Biden said his plan would boost trade, tax and investment policies to boost domestic innovation, reduce dependence on foreign production and create 5 million more jobs for Americans.

"I don't think the vitality of American manufacturing is just a story of the past," Biden said at the metal factory in Dunmore.

On the same day, Vice President Mike Pence began his campaign by bus across Pennsylvania, a sign of the state's importance in the campaign of both parties.

Biden's campaign is "prevailing" in many recent surveys, but his advisers, like many Republican strategists, still see the economy as his "weak spot" in the competition.

Republican leaders in the House of Representatives recently informed members of the survey results that show Trump has an economic advantage.

"One issue that Trump can 'score' is that he is better able to handle economic problems," said Stephen Moore, a member of Trump's economic recovery team.

Biden has long regarded himself as a champion for American workers, especially as a vice president under Obama, when he led the group in charge of improving the lives of the middle class and overseeing project implementation.

The speech in Pennsylvania was the first step in Biden's plan for the coming weeks, to detail the broader economic agenda, far beyond what he proposed in the primary elections.

Biden described it as an "unprecedented level of investment since the Great Depression and World War II", and emphasized the top priority of bringing prosperity to every place in the US, regardless of race and geography.

Biden's campaign is building a network to promote his economic strategy in important battle states, such as Arizona, Wisconsin, Ohio, Michigan or Minnesota.

As Trump's campaign increasingly focused to arouse the wave of racism, Biden and his campaign team tried to create "an economy for all Americans".

"Donald Trump can believe that Americans fighting each other can benefit him, and not me," Biden said.

Since the start of the campaign more than a year ago, Biden has said that Wall Street is not the true American economic engine.

"During this crisis, Donald Trump mostly focused on the stock market like Dow or Nasdaq, not you or your family," Biden said.

Biden is planning four economic strategy speeches ahead of the Democratic National Conference in August and the speech on July 9 is the first step.

Biden proposed a plan to raise taxes to collect nearly US $ 4 trillion to offset his spending plan.

The campaign assistant said Biden also proposed widening the budget deficit next year to help the economy recover from a pandemic recession, based on a new loan worth more than $ 3 trillion that Congress and

Many advisers say Biden will give priority to racial discrimination, in the midst of the economic downturn that has caused more damage for black workers.
