Speaking at the NAACP National Convention, President Joe Biden took to the stage and played off a term that former President Donald Trump used during a debate referring to Black jobs.

“Here’s what he thinks of Black jobs. I love his phrase, Black jobs. Folks, I know what a Black job is. It’s the Vice President of the United States,” Biden said.

He then took the time to tout his record.

“The first bill I passed included $1,400 checks, plus $300 checks per child, per family, per month, in the pockets of people in this country; to get them through the pandemic. Not Trump’s administration; Kamala and I did that. We cut Black child poverty in half. We grew the American economy to the strongest in the world. And I’m determined to make that tax cut permanent.”

Biden has made several speeches and appearances since his debate with former President Donald Trump, which had many people wondering if he was going to stay in the race. However, Biden has pushed back against all claims of stepping down and says he is ready to continue to deliver for the American people.
