Biden slams Trump in NH over tax cuts & entitlements
President Biden Takes Aim at Trump and Republicans in New Hampshire
President Joe Biden made a fiery campaign stop in swing-state New Hampshire, where he didn’t hold back in his attacks against former President Donald Trump and Republicans. He accused them of prioritizing tax cuts for the wealthy and slashing benefits programs, all while campaigning for the 2024 election.
Earlier in the day, Biden unveiled his budget request for fiscal 2025, with promises of reducing healthcare costs for families and tackling the federal deficit. The White House is confident that these measures will make a positive impact.
Fighting for Affordable Prescription Drugs
During his speech in New Hampshire, President Biden emphasized the importance of managing prescription drug prices. He warned that the GOP’s plans to renew Trump-era tax cuts, potentially roll back Obamacare, and shrink federal benefits programs would only burden families with higher costs.
Biden passionately declared, “Many of our Republican friends want to put Social Security and Medicare back on the chopping block again. But I won’t let that happen. If anyone tries to cut Social Security, Medicare, or raise the retirement age again, I will stop them.”
Highlighting Achievements and Future Goals
President Biden took the opportunity to remind the audience of his administration’s accomplishments, including the creation of 15 million new jobs and 800,000 manufacturing jobs. However, he acknowledged that there is still work to be done to support struggling families.
He stated, “We’ve got to tell people what we want to do and hope that they understand the consequences of electing the last guy. He has openly vowed to repeal everything we’ve achieved so far. We can’t let that happen. The American people still need help, and we’re committed to providing it.”
Fair Share and Transparency
White House officials assured the public that Biden’s policies would not raise taxes for households earning less than $400,000 per year. However, they emphasized the importance of ensuring that the wealthiest individuals and companies pay their fair share.
White House Office of Management and Budget Director Shalanda Young criticized Congressional Republicans, stating, “They don’t tell you what they cut or who they harm. President Biden, on the other hand, is transparent and detailed. He shows that he truly values the American people.”

President Biden outlined his commitment to lowering prescription drug prices by allowing Medicare to negotiate drug prices with pharmaceutical companies.

He criticized the Republicans’ continuous attempts to dismantle the ACA without presenting a viable alternative, emphasizing that the ACA has been a lifeline for millions of Americans.
Addressing Income Inequality
President Biden did not shy away from discussing the issue of income inequality during his speech. He stressed that tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations, as proposed by Republicans, only serve to widen the wealth gap. Instead, he affirmed his commitment to a fair and equitable tax system, where the wealthiest individuals and corporations contribute their fair share.
The President also announced his intention to expand the Child Tax Credit, a measure that has proven effective in lifting millions of children out of poverty. By making this expansion permanent, he hopes to provide ongoing support for struggling families and ensure a brighter future for the next generation.
Inclusive Economic Recovery
Another key point in President Biden’s speech was his dedication to an inclusive economic recovery. He criticized the Republican Party’s focus on the interests of big corporations and argued for policies that prioritize working families and small businesses.
He emphasized the importance of investing in infrastructure, clean energy, and technology innovation to create jobs and strengthen the economy. He pledged to continue his administration’s efforts to rebuild the country’s infrastructure, with a particular focus on sustainable and resilient infrastructure projects.
Unity and Bipartisanship

The President called for cooperation in addressing the pressing challenges facing the nation, such as climate change, racial inequality, and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. He emphasized that the country would be stronger when both parties work together towards common goals.
