Statement from NYGOP Chair Ed Cox following Joe Biden’s announcement

ALBANY – NYGOP Chair Ed Cox released the following statement:

“With the aide of a compliant party and many in the media, Joe Biden hid his condition from the American people for years. In 2020, the Democrat voters in the Iowa caucuses and New Hampshire primary saw him and his cognitive disabilities up close and ranked him fourth and fifth, respectively. Yet running as a moderate, he won the primary against socialist Bernie Sanders and under the cover of COVID hid both his condition and the inflationary, open border and woke policies of his party which he adopted as president.

“These Democrat policies produced inflation destroying the value of workers’ paychecks, wide open borders for drugs, criminals and terrorists and huge burdens on city and state resources. Biden’s conduct of foreign policy invited aggression by Russia in Europe and by Iran’s proxies against Israel. Furthermore, workers have been fleeing Democrat states plagued by high taxes, fiscally irresponsible government and insecure streets due to woke pro-criminal and anti-police regulations, prosecutors and judges.

“The American worker is poorer and less safe, America less secure and the world in turmoil as a result.

“Joe Biden is losing not only because of his cognitive problems but also because his policies contrast with Donald Trump’s strength on the issues that matter to the working men and women of America: the cost of living, economic prosperity, the border and security at home and for America abroad.

“Under President Donald Trump’s administration, inflation was low and wage hikes higher, the border was secure and Americans felt secure in their homes and streets. Deregulation and well-designed tax cuts unleashed prosperity for all and particularly for minority workers. Peace through strength by the leader of the free world was the world order of the day. Republican states attract workers with low taxes, fiscally responsible governments and secure streets.

“Under Donald Trump’s leadership, the Republican Party nationally and locally as the party of the American worker is destined for decisive wins this year. Desperate Democrat leaders undemocratically defying the will of fourteen million Democrat primary voters and changing horses at the last minute will not change the general voters’ view of their disastrous polices at all levels of government.

“The American people want change and they will get it.”
