Speaking from Wilmington, Del. on the subject of climate change and the western wildfires, @JoeBiden says the country is facing four historic crises at the same time: The Pandemic, an economic crisis, a reckoning on race and "undeniable acceleration" of climate change.

@JoeBiden "Wildfires don't skip towns that voted a certain way," @JoeBiden says. "The impacts of climate change don't pick and choose. That's because it's not a partisan phenomenon. It's science."

@JoeBiden The president didn't cause the fires, @JoeBiden says, but if @realDonaldTrump gets a second term, "these hellish events will continue to become more common."

@JoeBiden @realDonaldTrump An aggressive swing at the president here as @JoeBiden says: "If you give a climate arsonist four more years in the White House, why would anyone be surprised that more of America is ablaze?"

@JoeBiden @realDonaldTrump "It's clear that we're not safe in Donald Trump's America. This is Donald Trump's America -- he's in charge," @JoeBiden says.

@JoeBiden @realDonaldTrump As he left event, @JoeBiden previewed his Florida trip, per pooler @WaPoSean: “I will talk about how I am going to work like the devil to make sure I turn every Latino and Hispanic vote."

@JoeBiden @realDonaldTrump @WaPoSean MORE per pooler @WaPoSean: Asked about his FL Hispanic numbers, @JoeBiden said they're “Much higher than [Trump's]. But they gotta go higher.”
